Great day

Elephant orphanage does a marvellous job in rehabilitating the elephants - a wonderful cause . Xxxxx

Disappointed

Erika_d, Aug 2024

I would recommend visiting those 3 places but not with the guide Viator assigned. The first stop was a gift shop which none of us wanted to go to, there he told me to give my card to a man outside the shop for him to pay my entrance fee to the park, I didn't and they weren't happy about it. They sent me a link and I ended up paying that way. Also, he was a driver not a guide. Friendly but didn't know much.

Loved the babies

We had a great tour guide who took good care of us and of course seeing the elephants and giraffes was amazing.

Tour operator oversells

Caroline_V, Sep 2023

My feedback does not refer to either the giraffe centre or elephant orphanage...but the tour operator. They sell the tour but don't have confirmed tickets, and cancell at short notice or offer an alternative tour the evening before. If you want to go to the elephant orphanage do yourself a favour and go to the Sheldrick organisation website and read their update on tickets. I had good experience with Graceprat on a multi-day safari... but not with this one.

Enjoyed this tour and it’s perfect for families

Benjamin picked us up promptly at 8 am..loved the fact that we reached Giraffes Center right when it opened and avoided the crowds. Rest if the trip was well planned too.
