About us

It's just a money-making tourist trap While the concept of a unique conservation" may sound appealing but my experience left much to be desired. Instead of witnessing genuine conservation efforts, it felt more like a money-making tourist trap. The elephants on- site seemed exploited, relegated to performing tricks for visitors' entertainment, rather than being treated with the dignity and respect they deserve. It's disappointing to see such majestic creatures used as mere props for profit at places like Amer. P.S: I'm posting my review for the second time because the owner is try to remove my post. I really want TripAdvisor to take this seriously if the owner tries to remove the review again.

Totally ridiculous Offensive experince . I was cried to see that poor elephants in this critical condition . I saw one elephant she was to able to walk but they used her for riding and when I asked owner said she been rescued and they are taking care of her now but it dosent seems any care like this to put a Haver seat for riding .... It's really ridiculous..

Confianza el ellos una y mil veces No hay sitio mejor para visitar, son expectaculares, Ankit es el mejor maestro, total confianza y recomendable al mil por mil, una experiencia que sin lugar a duda por encima de las expectativas.

cruel to elephants We were there to see the elephants In their natural habitat but we didn't find like this anything there even they use them for riding and four tourist to make money only

Scam ! Scam ! Scam ! When I was in jaipur I wanted to see the elephants in ethical atmosphere and I booked my visit with Elefanjoy and owner Ankit was very polite on booking time but when I reached on the main entrance of the so called sanctuary ( just a place to keep and abusing the elephants) when I reached I saw some elephants they were doing riding and handlers had hooks ........... I decided to leave that place suddenly but owner said you booked and you have to pay ....I had paid for the visit .... totally scam....... It was really bad and offensive atmosphere for them who loves elephants

100% recommendation for all animal lovers Fully recommend the Elefanjoy elephant leisure time opportunity to everyone who loves animals and wants a place where they are well taken care of. We stayed 2-3 hours and learned a lot about elephants natural behavior, went for a walk, fed them with bananas and took amazing pictures while talking to them. We especially appreciated that it was about making the elephant feel good and not about pleasing only the tourist. The kind team support, cold beverages and clean washrooms have been an extra bonus. Will definitely come back.

Amazing experience bundled with fun and joy for kids The tour was amazing. Ankit did a great job in giving us a full walk through of the sanctuary and for giving us great insights into the life of an elephant. We got 1-1 uninterrupted time with the Elephant which was fantastic. It was not rushed and kids had a blast. Would highly recommend for families with kid.

Passeggiando con gli elefanti Una bellissima mattinata passata con gli elefanti. Sono stata in compagnia di gruppo di amici in vacanza per qualche giorno a Jaipur..Desideravo vedere gli elefanti e ho notato questo santuario. Siamo stati accolti con gentilezza e abbiamo avuto modo di ascoltare la storia di questo luogo che si prende cura degli elefanti sfruttati in passato che putroppo dopo anni passati in cattività non potrebbero più tornare in natura.. Gli animali vivono bene in uno spazio a loro dedicato tenuto con molta cura. Hanno una struttura protetta mezzo al verde e anche un lago dove rinfrescarsi.. Il posto è in un luogo tranquillo immerso nella natura. È stato molto emozionante imparare a conoscere gli elefanti e poterli avvicinare, toccare e dare loro da mangiare. Un bel ricordo che tutti noi ci potremo dentro. Grazie

Elefanjoy Elephant Sanctuary is something you absolutely must experience!! This was absolutely the BEST part of my vacation!! From the personal ride from our guide Ankit to the most extraordinary time we got to spend with Sonya the elephant. The love and appreciation Ankit and his team have for elephants is truly inspirational. A walk with the elephants is a must!!

The Highlight of my India Trip This was a once-in-a-lifetime experience I’ll never forget! They treat the elephants so humanely, which was a top priority for me. We had many activities—feeding Sonya (our elephant friend for the afternoon) various things like sugarcane and bananas, going for a walk (instead of a scary ride atop the animal), painting Sonya with organic paints, washing the paint off Sonya—and getting sprayed because she’s so playful—and then posing with her as well. The hospitality was top-notch, too. We were picked up from our tour’s end in the city and dropped off directly afterwards at our hotel. We were given umbrellas during the walk about & ice cold beverages to stay cool in the heat. Also, the masala chai they offer was delicious! I would love to return very soon and will recommend it to anyone visiting India.
