Elephant-Elegant 🐘

Wow! Wow! WOW!!!
This will go down as the best day in our lives and I very much doubt anything will beat it.
We were picked up by Parvin bang on time and the car was immaculate and the service too. Parvin is a driver who works with Elefantastic.
We arrived to a totally private experience - just us. Absolutely no other guests around - and this is by design. It felt incredibly exclusive.
We were met by “our” elephant Durga. She was just delightful. Dabu was our guide and Ansar was Durga’s handler and best friend.
Dabu and Ansar were exceptional. The love and care they showed Durga was heart warming. They were also extremely kind to us.
We loved the way they knew all 24 elephants in their care and could describe their character
- some cheeky, some impatient and some like Durga - chilled in the extreme! She was an absolute cutie and loved being loved and told how beautiful she is.
We fed her, walked with her, washed her and got pretty washed by her!! It was pure unadulterated JOY.
You simply must come here. The name may seem a bit theme parky - it is indeed fantastic but overall I would describe it more as elegant.
Deeply elegant. Elephant-Elegant 🐘
Thank you from Lisa and Andrea (visited 15th October 2026) 🙏🏼

Unforgettable experience
Heagiles, October 2026
Incredible! We came as a family of 4 with kids aged 4 and 7 and we were all mesmerised! The driver picked us up from our hotel and dropped us back again. Our guide, Ansar, introduced us to the beautiful Durga, a 36 year old female elephant. We fed her cucumbers, and sugarcane and the kids loved spending time with her and learning about how they care for the elephants. Getting to be so close to the elephant was amazing and to see how dexterous their trunks are! We then went for a short walk with her and then helped to give her a wash and scrub. A truly special experience that we will never forget!

An experience you won’t forget

Wow, just wow. What a truly remarkable experience. Being up close feeding a rescued elephant; then getting to walk her with the handler and finally giving her a bath. Yes we got absolutely soaking wet but it was more than worth it. Thank you to Druga’s handler and best friend Ansar for letting us spend an amazing time with him and Druga.

Amazing, genuine family experience

Amazing family experience and unforgettable memories.
Spending 2 hours with an elephant in his own habitat has been absolutely delightful.
We feared to have a touristic experience, and/or to find uncomfortable conditions for the elephant.
We got very positively surprised: private session with the elephant, supervised by a crew of amazingly friendly and knowledgeable staff (kudos to Ansar the care taker!!) who are also excellent photographer and video makers!
The elephant is perfectly at ease, ready to be fed, washed, walked and hugged exactly like a home pet.
No riding, beating, forcing the animal to do unnatural stuff.
Very well done to Elefantastic for a natural and genuine experience. Highly recommended for families and people interested to learn more about elephants, spending some quality time with them and making memories that will be kept in your heart forever.

"Thank you so much to your wonderful family for this exceptionally thoughtful, heartwarming, and glowing review! We are overjoyed to hear that your two hours with us turned out to be such an unforgettable highlight.
We completely understand and appreciate your initial hesitation before visiting. With so many commercialized attractions around the world, travelers who care deeply about animal welfare are rightly cautious. That is why creating a tranquil, private haven where rescued elephants are never forced into rides, shows, or unnatural performances is our absolute founding mission. Seeing our gentle giants relaxed, content, and eager to share quiet walks, feeding sessions, refreshing washes, and affectionate hugs is the greatest reward our team could ever ask for.
A very special thank you from us for recognizing Ansar! He is a remarkably dedicated caretaker, and his warmth, knowledge, and talent for capturing candid family photos and videos ensure that these cherished moments remain vivid long after your visit.
Thank you for trusting us, advocating for ethical wildlife tourism, and recommending Elefantastic to families and conscious travelers worldwide. Your family will always have an open home and a gentle herd waiting to welcome you back to Jaipur! 🐘💚📸✨"

An unforgettable experience in Jaipur, absolutely not to be missed!

Our visit to Elefantastic was one of the most beautiful and exciting experiences of our trip to Rajasthan!
We visited Elefantastic with our three children and we were truly thrilled. Being able to spend time so close to an elephant, interacting with him and getting to know him better was a unique experience that we will remember for a long time.
A special thanks goes to Ansar, who accompanied us throughout the entire experience with our elephant. He was truly fantastic: kind, patient, thoughtful, and very attentive, especially with the children. Thanks to him, we immediately felt at ease and were able to experience every moment with serenity and enthusiasm.
It was a wonderful experience for the whole family, not only for the children, but also for us adults!
We absolutely recommend Elefantastic to anyone visiting Jaipur, especially families with children. For us, it was one of the most special stops of the entire trip to India.
Heartfelt thanks to Ansar for making this day so memorable!
