During the tour, your guide will share valuable information about the history of elephant conservation in Cambodia, the challenges elephants face, and how the sanctuary works to improve the lives of elephants. You'll leave with a greater understanding of the importance of preserving these gentle giants and the impact of responsible wildlife tourism.
