点评:My experience was incredible from start to finish. I had already discovered this place online before arriving in Knysna, so I booked both my room and the elephant walking experience for the following morning.
The park also operates as a hotel and is located about 20 km from central Knysna. The road is paved and in good condition, with only the last kilometer being a dirt road, which is still very easy to access.
The rooms are beautiful and are named after the elephants. They are spacious, with comfortable beds, bathrobes, a large coffee table, and a cozy sofa. One of the most special aspects of staying here is that the elephants can spend the night in a dedicated resting area visible from the hotel hallway. There are large sofas and blankets where guests can sit quietly and observe them. It was a truly beautiful and moving experience.
The next morning, we joined the elephant walk. Jeffrey took us to the meeting point, and David guided the experience with me and the lovely Sally. I absolutely loved it. The photos turned out so beautifully that I couldn’t resist buying the entire package. For 350 rand, I received all the digital files on a USB drive as well as a printed A5 photo.
After the experience, we were invited to the restaurant, where I could freely choose from a delicious breakfast menu.
I loved combining the hotel stay with the elephant walk. It was a very special and memorable experience. Throughout the visit, the staff emphasized the elephants’ welfare and explained the care they receive. The activities are accompanied by biologists and trained professionals who clearly demonstrate their commitment to the animals’ well-being.
I would highly recommend this experience to couples, families, and children. It was emotional, educational, and unforgettable.
翻译:我的体验从头到尾都棒极了。在抵达克尼斯纳之前,我就已经在网上发现了这个地方,于是预订了房间和第二天早上的大象漫步体验。
这家公园同时也是一家酒店,距离克尼斯纳市中心约20公里。道路铺设良好,路况也不错,只有最后一段是土路,但仍然很容易通行。
房间很漂亮,都以大象的名字命名。房间宽敞,配备舒适的床、浴袍、大咖啡桌和舒适的沙发。入住这里最特别的一点是,大象可以在酒店走廊里看到的专属休息区过夜。那里有大沙发和毯子,客人可以安静地坐着观察它们。这真是一次美好而令人感动的体验。
第二天早上,我们参加了大象漫步。杰弗里带我们去了集合点,大卫带领我和可爱的萨莉体验了整个过程。我非常喜欢这次体验。照片效果太美了,我忍不住买了全套套餐。350兰特,我收到了U盘里的所有电子版照片,还有一张A5尺寸的打印照片。
体验结束后,我们被邀请到餐厅,我可以随意选择美味的早餐。
我非常喜欢把酒店住宿和与大象漫步结合起来。这是一次非常特别且令人难忘的体验。整个过程中,工作人员都强调了大象的福利,并解释了它们所受到的照料。生物学家和训练有素的专业人员全程陪同,他们充分展现了对动物福祉的重视。
我强烈推荐情侣、家庭和孩子们体验这项活动。它既令人感动,又富有教育意义,而且令人难忘。
