Sian James review 7 Apr 2024
1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
Trekking into the forest and seeing a mother and baby elephant feeding and drinking around a river in a small valley - it was magical!2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
Prepare for hill walking and dust! Listen well to the guides and enjoy every moment because the time flies by.3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
Yes, it definitely helped the local economy in the village. We hardly ate any food that wasn't freshly prepared so had a low carbon footprint and little plastic. The elephant foundation was supported by the trip.4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
It was a fantastic experience, we really enjoyed and appreciated spending time in the village and seeing the elephants. As long as you have a family used to the outdoors, hard work and basics it was a great learning experience for children too.Alan Turner review 9 Apr 2023

You can trust Responsible Travel reviews because, unlike many other schemes, reviews can ONLY be written by people who we have verified have been on the holidays. In addition, we don't run these holidays ourselves - our only interest is giving you the best independent advice.
