What travellers are saying
- Tita ElvieCanada102 contributionsWOW. What a hike. If you are physically able, definitely do the full loop. It is stunning. Make sure to pack water and snacks. You are fairly exposed to the sun, so bring a hat and sunscreen. I think I took a million photos! There's a gorgeous beach too where you can sit in the sand.
Also, make sure to visit the kiosk with the drinks and snacks. It was such a blessing to get an iced chai latte after the long hike while overlooking the water at the picnic tables!! Never seen such a cool kiosk at a trail head.Written 10 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The food was cooked for us by delightful staff. Nothing was too much trouble. To see all the animals and hear about their stories was one of the highlights of our visit.
Keri looked after us on our tour & was so attentive during our two night stay.
The gift shop and jewellery on offer was amazing & a few purchases were made.Written 5 February 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

And the variety of bird species is so vastWritten 8 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- DavidWorcester, UK24 contributionsThis is a great place to visit where the tours are guided. Much useful information is learned from the expert guide, and there are many species of monkeys/apes to be easily seen in a natural environment. We bought a combined Bird/monkey ticket, which proved very worthwhile.Written 4 October 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Angie CCanterbury, UK7 contributionsA well-run, professional, ethical, established elephant park.
The elephants are well cared for in a natural environment. The rangers were informative, and professional. We read reviews that criticised the park for rushing your experience but we did
Not find this to be the case at all, the rangers were clear with their instructions gave us plenty of time to feed and photograph the gracious animals. Whilst they were stood behind a bar for feeding this was for visitor safety and the well-being of the animals. It is true you can’t stroke the elephants now, but it feels amazing when they feed from your hand and their trunk tickles your palm! A really tranquil experience!Written 9 February 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Only thing I would say is it should be a guided tour for all who visit.Written 18 October 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Lenore NCape Town, South Africa91 contributionsThis is a bit of a hidden gem. We visited on a Tuesday afternoon and were the only guests- which added positively to the experience. You can walk on your own and It’s a very relaxing experience. It’s amazing to see the wolves although a bit unsettling when they were tracking our 5 year old. I think they thought easy prey... It was loads of fun visiting and feeding the farm animals. We would definitely recommend a stop here.Written 25 August 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- pier h2 contributionsMyself and my family spent a lovely morning walking through the forest with Mark. The private nature reserve is a pristine undisturbed area of natural beauty and a real treat to experience. Mark is a thoughtful and informative guide with plenty of stories to tell from his years of working with animals and in nature. A definite recommendation!Written 4 July 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
