good day. Do I have to book something with an elephant before a tour or can I spontaneously come by with my wife? Yours sincerely

I saw a mother elephant and a baby elephant at the entrance in a tiny space. The mother elephant was chained both front legs so close together. She was visibly stressed in a tiny space and she was constantly stamping feet in the same spot. It looks difficult for her to balance with her front feet so closely changed together. Her baby was constantly trying to put the foot outside the fence. Their pen was so small. I asked a lady at the reception and I was told that the mother elephant was chained so that she doesn't hurt the visitors in order to protect her baby. I feel so sorry for these beautiful elephants. We as tourists want to see elephants in nature NOT the ones in chained in a tiny pen! I hope you understand what tourists expect. Please leave those mother and baby elephants in your large safari without chain where they are safe and enjoy the freedom. You will have more tourists to see happy elephants.

We took a tour for two with the only condition of bathing with an elephant, when we left we were told that it was not possible because the water had gone up, saying that then we went back another day we were deceived telling us that if it could be in another place, it was not so. Can you explain why I lost my time and money? You can do it a thousand times, I come from another part of the planet to do this, please do not play with people, it would have been easy to do it in the afternoon or the next day, thanks in advance. Tour apologies not is sufficient, my money y es, forma example to do it in other placer of my trip. Juan from Spain.

You should be absolutely disgusted with yourselves that you can treat such a gentle giant with such disregard and malice as a way to make yourselves money! I hope someone rescues the poor elephants you are mistreating so badly who deserve so much more than being beaten secretly by you when all the tourists have gone home. Oh and thank you for laughing in my face whilst I had no choice but to cry over you beating your elephants. Disgusting!
