    All I can say is Wow. This was one of the most incredible experiences I have had. Being do close to these amazing animals and actually seeing them up close and personal. They are truly amazing. My wife and I had a great time and will never forget it. The staff are very welcoming and very informative giving a person a quick lesson about elephants. They are amazing would suggest people go and support thes two elephants that were rescued.

    Fantastic experience. Would definitely recommend. Friendly staff, really helpful and caring. Treated me and my 9 year old son with a lot of compassion. The ranger even picked my son up higher to be able to feel and see better. Worth the money.

    One of the best life experiences that I will cherish. To have such a beauty of a God created creature standing next to you the size of a Cat truck was just phenomenal! I would recommend to anyone! Hazyview Elephant Sanctuary was very neat and well kept, the elephants look well cared for and healthy. the staff are knowledgeable and very friendly.

    For those who want a close up and personal experience with these gentle giants, the Elephant Sanctuary is the place to be as they have interactions with elephants where you can feed them, give them water and even touch them or hug them for those of you who are adventurous. The trainers are very friendly and give very detailed and interesting information about the elephants. This is a once in a lifetime experience and the price isn't bad as well plus children are free under a certain age. I highly recommend this experience for everyone as well as foreigners in the area as you won't regret it.

    What a wonderful experience! This guide with the trainers are so dedicated and well informed. They have a vast knowledge of elephant behaviour and you can see they love and respect these animals.

    An experience I will never forget! The staff was so friendly and taught us so much! Today they made my dreams come true. My husband and I will definitely go back for another experience. It was great!

    This place is just so amazing. The presentation is very informative but the interaction with the Elephants is quite an experience. The entry fee is R500 per adult and its worth every cent. The guides are even willing to take pictures for you but there's an interaction video that you can buy for R160. This video just shows your interaction with the Elephants. A definite must when in the area. Just don't buy the interaction video because you won't get it.

    This was an amazing experience. We were with a group (about 20 people) and our party was of 6. We learned about the elephants and were able to feel and touch them and then take a walk with them. It was amazing. The guides were well informed and patient.

👍👍 A lovely surprise and a great place to stop, either to consume your own coffee and food or purchase from them. They also rent out skottles and gas bottle. Friendly, efficient staff. Small curio shop and super clean ablution. Tables set out under the trees. Great concept!

😠 The state of the Park's facilities and public areas are absolutely disgusting. It's unkept and run down. NO maintenance and NO basic gardening seems to be the new motto. The gravel roads in the Park will soon be impassable. I'm ashamed to think what foreigners' idea of SA must be after visiting.

👍👍 Great for playing golf in the wildest place in the world. The restaurant is situated right by the hippos. We as Private Kruger Safaris often take our guests for lunch here. Definitely recommended.
