Experience an elephant back safari in the Knysna forest.
The Elephant Sanctuary provides a safe-haven for our elephants and offers a
platform for guest education and interaction.
We offer guest and elephant driven programs where the most important part of our
operation is happy elephants and satisfied guests. Our programs offer one of a
kind elephant interaction and are unique to the Elephant Sanctuary.
All our elephants are rescued African elephants and we have gained their trust
through our unique reward based training. We believe in forming bonds between
humans and elephants and all our elephants are exercised and stimulated daily
which provides a firm foundation for trust.
Elephants are highly intelligent and delightful and you will discover a
different character, personality and temperament within each one. We are a
family orientated operation catering for the young and old. Our focus is on
education through interaction, so you will not only learn a lot about elephants,
but also get to touch, feel, feed, walk trunk-in-hand and even ride these
magnificent animals.
