A Grand Day Out!
Veronica_A, Apr 2024
Faizal was an awesome tour guide and driver! He was very knowledgeable, about both the Batu Caves, and especially the elephants. I was picked up at my hotel, and driven to both places. I had a private tour for the whole day! I had a grand day out!

A great experience. We were picked up on time by our driver Faisal and driven to our first stop Batu caves. We had about 45 mins to explore, walk up the stairs, meet the monkeys and admire the beautiful location. We then drove to the sanctuary for really a once in a lifetime experience, to learn about and interact with the elephants. We paid the additional 120 ringgit for the local guide at the sanctuary, which is well worth doing. Our guide was excellent with great knowledge and this experience allowed us to get even closer to the animals and guide us through the sanctuary. Faisal and the guide even took some pictures of us interacting with the elephants for us to keep as keepsakes of this memorable day. Faisal was a great host offering to stop along the way for food/drinks stops if necessary as well as answering questions on the journey to and from the attractions. A great experience and a must do if you have a spare day when in Kuala Lumpur.
Visiting the elephants was a trip highlight

I was very skeptical about this tour to the elephant sanctuary. I am very cautious about animal tourism and saw some comments that this sanctuary was animal exploitation. I enjoyed our visit and learned that the sanctuary is still new (30 years old) and learning from other elephant sanctuaries in India and Thailand. And that they have stopped doing things like elephant rides recently because of what they have learned. The sanctuary relies on tourist to fund the care of these elephants in need. We took the private tour and I felt horrible for the sanctuary because they have struggled since Covid. If you love elephants I recommend a visit. It was a great day and I would do it again

It is not a trip for worth. 1.5 hour one way trip and there are only a few elephants. Guides and driver are good.
Response from Host, Jan 2024
Hi I'm sorry if you don't feel happy.. maybe this place doesn't suit your heart and my driver said u took for normal nature guide.. normal nature guide just give information about elephant..mostly customer coming here will choose for education tour.you can go into elephant cage to feed them and bathing them..all other customers who go here are happy and give 5 stars. for a review of the place you can search on google elephant sanctuary kuala gandah and give a review there.. review at here is only for service review and our services.

Great relaxed day out
Stephanie_J, Aug 2023
Our driver was very friendly and patient. Also our guide at the elephant sanctuary was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Very interesting tour. Would do it again.
Worth the trip!
Samantha_R, Jul 2023
Seeing the Batu caves was lovely but the highlight was definitely seeing the elephants. You pay a little extra if you want to feed the elephants but well worth it in the end! Fitri was very knowledgeable about Malaysia and gave us some interesting facts about the royal families and politics.
A day with the elephants
sally_b, Mar 2023
I enjoyed Batu caves, climbing the stairs was not easy, but I made it. It was beautiful. Then feeding the elephants and blowing kisses to them was amazing! They are so precious!
Très bonne activité en famille
JeanPaul_S, Dec 2023
Notre chauffeur Ramzan était très sympa. Nous avons pris un guide du parc sur place (pas cher, 120 MYR) et la visite a été excellente: nous avons pu approcher de très près les éléphants, les nourrir et même les caresser.
