About 2 hours drive from KL (or 1.5 if you have a local driving
) is an elephant sancturay in the middle of nowhere!
There is no entry fee, though you’re encouraged to give a donation based on the number of people there. We ended up giving RM50 for the 3 of us – still great value.
Because of heavy rains – we didnt get to bathe with the Elephants in the river, but we got to feed and ride on them.
The feeding was a little un-nerving, but OK once you’ve done it a few times.
Riding was interesting – without a saddle. Was easy enough to stay up though, the ride was very short – just a 15m lap.
One amazing thing was all the elephants stepped in time – they swayed together! Like they were dancing together.
If you’ve got a spare day – recommend finding a tour guide to take you up here
