Mondulkiri Project

"I had an incredible day at the Mondulkiri Project Elephant Sanctuary during a day trek, and it was undoubtedly one of the most memorable experiences of my trip to Cambodia.

From the very beginning, the team gave us a warm welcome and took the time to explain the sanctuary's project, which aims to protect and give a new life to elephants formerly exploited in tourism or for work. You immediately feel that the animals' well-being is the priority.

The guides are passionate and explain the elephants' history and the sanctuary's conservation work very well.

I highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to discover elephants in an ethical and responsible way.

"A superb experience, including feeding and bathing with the elephants. The guides speak excellent English and provide lots of information about the association.

The meals were generous, and the night spent in a comfortable hammock was wonderful. All the necessary accommodations are available on site. There's a warm and welcoming atmosphere in the evenings.

The approximately 18km trek was manageable, and you can swim in a waterfall during your meal.

I highly recommend this experience!

Thank you Laura for spending the two days with us — and for sharing your photos.

Thanks for your very detailed 5* google review Jane and for sharing a photo of 'Happy'.

"We are not ones for early starts but this was definitely worth it!

After meeting at the project's offices in Sen Monorom, we were driven to the project and our guide gave us some background to its foundation.

We then walked into the jungle to meet with Happy and then Comvine and Princess who just appeared out of the undergrowth and came over to us so that we could feed them some bananas.

It was then back for a substantial and tasty lunch and a rest at the hammock station.

Suitably rested and after a drink of tea/coffee, we headed back to meet Happy by the river and Comvine and Princess at the waterfall.

If you wanted to (I did) you could join them in the river! It was then back to the project to be driven back to Sen Monorom.

At no time during the day did we feel rushed and it was absolutely amazing to see these beautiful animals up close.

All have had poor starts to life but will now live out the rest of their lives in the jungle with the freedom to wander wherever they want (although they're anybody's friend for a banana!)

It was also definitely good value for money and I would highly recommend it!!
