 Verified A truly organic experience with a beautiful creature!
We had a wonderful experience at the Elenfanjoy Elephant Sanctuary! The activities were well thought out and really allowed you to spend quality time getting to know your elephant and the staff were incredibly kind and very knowledgeable. We would definitely recommend a visit! We miss our elephant friends already!

 Verified Gentle giants
A special and thought provoking experience with Muskin, a gentle 35 year old elephant, rescued from a circus. Being so close to this majestic creature was an absolute privilege. The special bond between her and her human carer is clearly evident. The facilities are clean and I felt this was an ethical experience. In the ideal world, she would be roaming free but that is not possible due to past human interference in her life, so this place is definitely her next best option. Kindness, care, good food, exercise with the short elephant walks and a lake for swimming. And a bit of fun squirting the tourists with water!! (Optional) Highly recommend this experience in Jaipur

 Verified Amazing 1day trip to Jaipur
The tourguide did amazing job telling about the places we visited and making sure the trip is exactly how we want it. He made it super convenient with the timings, pickup and tips how to make the best of our 1 day in Jaipur. The elephant sanctuary is a strong position on the tour and they are taking very good care of the animals. In June the weather was pretty hot but still doable. A/C in the car and shades were enough to let us through the day.

 Verified Fantastic experience at Elefanjoy!
My sister and I visited the Elefanjoy Sanctuary in May and we had an amazing time meeting Mala, the elephant. Ankit very helpfully showed us around and the whole tour was super educational. Elefanjoy is a true heaven for elephants, providing them with a safe and caring place. It was the absolute highlight of our Jaipur stay and I would highly recommend visiting it!

It was an amazing experience. I spent time with Sobha, fed her, and took her for a walk. I loved every minute. The staff were professional and helpful, explaining about the sanctuary and its future plans. I highly recommend it to everyone.

 Verified Interacting with elephants ethically
We spent an hour at Elephanjoy Elephant Sanctuary with a sweet rescue elephant called Mala. The man who looks after her is clearly very fond of her. She looked very relaxed and happy and very carefully cared for. It was a great experience to interact with such a beautiful and well cared for animal in a respectful way I would highly recommend this very ethical and caring sanctuary if you would like to have an experience with elephants.

 Verified Amazing!! It a must in Jaipur!
Amazing experience!! Team is very long and well prepared! They are promoting the walk around with the elephants instead of riding, that was very nice for us!!

Why Choose Us

Bhagwat Gita states, “When you feel the suffering of every living thing in your own heart, that’s consciousness.” At Elefanjoy, we live by this philosophy and ensure no harm to our beloved animals. Elephants are one of the kindest and most loving animals on this earth, and humans have used them for their benefit for thousands of years, making them live in cruel and negligent conditions.

We are very aware of our guest’s ethical concerns over the fair treatment and care of our elephants. We can assure you that the welfare of our elephants is a main ‌priority at the sanctuary, and we go out of the way to ensure that no activities or practices harm them.

  Highly recommend! Ankit picked us up from our airbnb, showed us around the sanctuary and offered us masala tea before introducing us to Soba, the 34 year old rescue elephant. We then spent a few hours feeding, walking and washing her. It was a beautiful and peaceful experience. As someone who is conscious about animal welfare, it felt very ethical - Soba was showing all the behaviours of a happy elephant!

  The service is excellent and exactly as advertised. The carers are very attentive whilst the elephants are able to express their personalities and they seem happy. The walk with the elephant was very fun though it was hot afternoon and Soba is a fast walker. Thoroughly recommend this experience to others and am glad to see ethical opportunities are available to interact with these beautiful creatures.

  What an incredible journey! Our day in Jaipur with Mr. Ankit as our guide was simply delightful, but the real highlight was our visit to the elephant sanctuary. Our elephant companion was not only gentle and playful but also incredibly endearing. Mahawat, her caretaker, clearly had a deep bond with her, which made the experience even more special. From painting and feeding her to sharing hugs and walks, every moment felt magical. It's heartening to see how well-loved and cared for these rescued elephants are. I highly recommend this unforgettable experience to anyone visiting Jaipur.

I opted for the full elephant experience along with the Jaipur tour spanning two days, and I must say, Mr. Ankit and our guide was exceptional. They accommodated my specific requests and time constraints with a smile, making the tour seamless and enjoyable. Having traveled extensively and been on numerous tours worldwide, I can confidently say that this was one of the best experiences I've had. Mr. Ankit provided just the right amount of information at each stop, keeping us engaged without overwhelming us. If only they could accompany me as guides on all my travels!

Now, about the elephant sanctuary - I'm immensely grateful we chose this particular place for our experience. The genuine care and knowledge about the animals were evident throughout our time there. We had the privilege of feeding, walking, painting, and even washing our assigned elephant, which added a personal touch to the entire experience. While the walk was a leisurely stroll amidst shade trees, do keep in mind that the terrain is sandy, so comfortable footwear is advisable.

In conclusion, our Jaipur experience was truly memorable, thanks to this company, the amazing experience they provided, and of course, our fantastic guide, Mr. Ankit.
Big Thanks and highly recommended.

  I had booked the full elephant experience plus Jaipur tour to take place over two days.  Our guide, Ankit, and driver were fantastic. I had a few specific requests and time constraints that they were more than happy to make work out. I have been on many tours with many guides all over the world, and this was truly one of the best. Just enough information on the pages we went to inform us but not be boring. If they could be our driver and guide everywhere I went, I would be happy.

Now for the elephant sanctuary - I'm so very glad we booked this experience at this place. I know there are a few others, but here you can tell they truly care about and know the animals. We fed, walked, painted and washed an elephant that was basically assigned to us for the time we were there, which made it feel even more special. I will mention the walk is a nice stroll through some shade trees, but it is sandy so keep that in mind when choosing footwear.

Overall, we loved our time in Jaipur and I think that was all because of this company, experience, and guide.
