About us
Welcome to Elefanjoy
Elefanjoy 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.

Really enjoy feeding and walking with themVerifiedbas v2024-09-05Relaxing with elephants We booked this trip through the official site. Contacted via Whatsapp and got a very friendly, clear answer back. Booking was easy and they picked us up at the hotel, got extra info about jaipur on the way. The trip was soothing, which we could use after a busy day jaipur. The encounter with the elephant was very pleasant, were well guided and given plenty of time to make contact with the elephant. We were happy that no elephant rides are offered here but we could walk with the elephant. Everything was to your liking, also got including the price drink.VerifiedParadise515637529362024-08-30Great experience in Jaipur at Elefanjoy Elephant Sanctuary We were picked up from our hotel by Ankit. He then proceeded to let us know of all the wonderful activities we could experience in Jaipur. Once we got to the Sanctuary, we were greeted with chai and water before meeting Shobha, a beautiful 38 year old elephant. We had the pleasure to feed her sugar cane and bananas, decorate her with natural paint then take her for a walk before giving her a wash. It was a beautiful experience, I highly recommend visiting the sanctuary as the elephants seem to be taken care of very well and are happy in their environment. There are no elephant rides as to insure the well-being of these majestic animals.VerifiedJamie M2024-08-30Truly incredible experience with Elefanjoy We had a wonderful experience with Elefanjoy! It is a professionally run business who truly care for their elephants. Some of the the activities include a brief introduction followed by feeding, walking and bathing the elephants. A great afternoon activity for all ages and memories that will last a lifetime.VerifiedHimangi K2024-08-24One of the most recommended experiences The experience was surreal. It is well managed and my husband and I enjoyed a lot.

We took care of the beautiful Shoba, a really funny elephant. We feed her, painting her body with water colour, washing her. I love animals and this is the perfect place where to make an experience like that. We recommand the sanctuary and for sure we will come again as soon as possibile. ThanksVerifiedDream148270471632024-08-13Once in a lifetime experience! Amazing experience with great hosts. We met our gentle elephant Soba and fed her sugar cane, wheat and bananas! We painted her then went for a lovely walk around the sanctuary with our two guides. We then washed her and fed her again! The guides were very informative and good fun. Would recommend!VerifiedJonathan W2024-08-13Fantastic experience - highly recommend! We spent a wonderful 3 hours with Shoba, a large female Indian elephant.
