Product Info

Spend 2 hours learning how to be a ‘mahout’ - an elephant caretaker. Change into a mahout outfit and take a short walk out to meet with the elephants.

Alongside a real mahout, you will learn how to approach the elephants and judge their temperament and gain their trust. 

You will be able to feed them and be amazed as you watch their trunks skillfully scoop up food offered to them. 

After watching them eating, having already secured your special bond with the elephant and gained its trust, observe, or maybe even help the mahouts as they bathe and play with the elephants, which helps them cool off and cleanse their thick skins.
