"Reteti Elephant Orphanage visit review"
Based at Sarara on 14 Jan 2022
"There is nothing more heartwarming than spending an hour here! Watching during feeding time, you instantly see the elephants' personalities (and the keepers!) personalities shine through. The cheeky ones trying to grab a second bottle, the "best friends" who like to be fed together, the keepers seeking out the shy elephants to make sure they have their bottle. Learning about the impact the orphanage has had and continues to make on the Samburu is fascinating."

"Fantastic work - a real treat to visit"
Based at Saruni Rhino on 20 Oct 2019
"A long and bumpy trip to reach this very hidden gem but wouldn't have missed it for anything - one of the highlights of the holiday.
Admirable work being undertaken and a joy to see the orphaned elephants running out to be bottle-fed and interacting with their keepers.
Great to see Samburu women involved here." Read more about this whole safari
