About us
Our Story
Elefanjoy is an ethical elephant sanctuary in Jaipur that was started with a dream to protect and provide for elephants in negligent and abusive conditions by Mr. Ankit Pareek. Ankit is a certified yoga master and trainer, who has spent his childhood with the elephants in Jaipur. As he grew up, he realized the need for a safe space for these majestic beings on earth who are treated cruelly. In 2012, he founded Elefanjoy and spent all his time building the best wildlife elephant sanctuary in India for Asiatic elephants. Since then, Elefanjoy has been caring for these animals and striving to make people more aware of their conservation.
We have about 20 elephants at Elefanjoy from all across the country who need a safe abode. Through Elefanjoy, we try to provide and care for these animals in the best way possible.

My mother and I came here with our guides without knowing what to expect. Even then, they absolutely made t he experience a hundred times better than we thought. They’re lovely with the animals and the clients. I would really recommend this activity!K L2024-11-27Verified Amazing experience meeting Ladu the elephant! Amazing experience meeting elephant! They really care about the animals — paint is all natural from vegetables and they discourage riding. We met Ladu who was very happy and well fed!Venture129312813042024-11-27Verified What an experience!

I recommend this activity to anyone that comes to India and wants to have an incredible time with elephants. We were able to feed, pet and paint the elephant. You get a complimentary drink and there’s a bathroom in case you need.Cris M2024-11-22Verified Don't miss this experience We visited the elephant sanctuary with friends and family.

Let's save the elephants, feed them, love them and NOT ride themDeparture373393921672024-11-20Verified Best part of our India trip! We're about a month past returning from India, and our visit to Elefanjoy is still the top highlight my family is talking about from our trip. Ankit was amazing in providing context for the elephants and the ongoing work of ethically providing for them, guiding us in our interactions with them, and showing us the sanctuary grounds. We had fun feeding the elephants sugar cane and bananas. Even my 64-year-old Midwestern father had a blast. :) I'm excited to see how the sanctuary grows and would 100% encourage anyone thinking about visiting an elephant sanctuary in Jaipur to choose Elefanjoy!Trip574635249192024-11-20Verified Unforgettable elephant experience They do incredible work the elephants The staff were immensely hospitable and friendly and the elephants were also very friendly and approachable.
