点评:We went on one of the earliest tours, and I really think that made the whole experience even better. The group was small, around 12 people, so there was plenty of space and everyone got their own elephant to feed.
Our guide, Coconut Man, also called John, was fantastic. He was informative, very cheerful, and great fun to joke around with. He made the whole experience feel relaxed, natural, and enjoyable.
The elephants were absolutely beautiful, and it was such a special moment to be able to feed them and gently interact with them. There was plenty of time to take photos or simply enjoy the moment, and there was no pressure at all to touch the elephants or get too close if anyone did not feel comfortable.
Putting mud on the elephants was a lot of fun, but be warned, it gets under your nails and the color does not come off your skin very easily. After that, we got to bathe and scrub them, which was another great part of the experience. I strongly recommend wearing water shoes because it makes everything much more comfortable.
Overall, this was an amazing experience and I highly recommend it.
翻译:我们参加的是最早的几期旅行团之一,我觉得这让整个体验更加完美。团里只有12个人左右,空间很宽敞,每个人都能喂到一头大象。
我们的导游“椰子人”(Coconut Man),也叫约翰(John),非常棒。他知识渊博,热情开朗,而且很会开玩笑。他让整个体验轻松自然,充满乐趣。
大象们真是太漂亮了,能够喂它们、和它们轻轻互动,真是一次难忘的经历。我们有充足的时间拍照,或者只是静静地享受当下,而且完全不会强迫任何人触摸大象或靠得太近,如果有人觉得不舒服,完全可以自由选择。
给大象抹泥巴很有趣,但要注意,泥巴会粘在指甲缝里,而且颜色很难从皮肤上洗掉。之后,我们给大象洗澡、搓澡,这也是体验中非常棒的一部分。我强烈建议穿水鞋,这样会舒服很多。
总的来说,这是一次非常棒的体验,我强烈推荐。
