    Was a fantastic day out so informative and was so great to sea the work that was being done with the turtles and the elephants, then to cap it all you go down the river on a raft which was so relaxing and great fun

    Our guide Non was excellent, he was very informative and made sure everyone was comfortable and had a good time. The elephant experience was wonderful and the real highlight, the bamboo rafting was lovely, very peaceful and beautiful scenery with our guide pointing out the wild life, we saw fish, frogs and a snake. The lunch was tasty and plentiful, they told us to just let them know if we wanted more and they bought refills. The sea turtle sanctuary was ok but felt a little underwhelming.

    The day started off with the elephants, feeding them, stroking them and watching them swim. Then off to a waterfall for a quick dip. Then it was back into town for food and a foot bath before heading back on the bus to the turtle sanctuary. Overall a great trip. However I knock one star off because two of us in our group got food poisoning from something at lunch time so be wary.

    The guide was excellent - friendly and informative! Each element of the trip was very good - the elephants were obviously the highlight, but the turtles, foot spa after lunch, and bamboo rafting were also holiday highlights! We weren’t too bothered about the waterfall but that was just us. It was an excellent day out which we would definitely recommend!!!
