点评:The best experience, not to be missed in Laos. Worth every penny and you know it is going to a good cause. Our guide Rabbit was a top guy. We were well looked after and enjoyed his company and was very informative. His English was very good and even more impressive given he is self taught. We were picked up from our hotel in a comfortable van by a driver and our guide. The drive to the sanctuary was smooth and flew by and is not far from the train station. We did a half day morning tour. You arrive at the restaurant which is on the banks of the river for a quick briefing. You are giving shoes with attached gaters to wear. Would recommend taking some socks to put on. You the take a quick boat ride to the other side. The trek with the elephants was super fun, slow paced and not strenuous. Absolutely beautiful to watch them browse in the jungle, play and at the end they take a swim in the river which they loved. You then boat back to the restaurant where you are served a delicious meal. They also have a selection of cold drinks and beer to buy. There is a gift shop with some cool locally made knick knacks. The whole experience is laid back and very natural. The conservation is very ethical and you really can tell that the rescue elephants are happy and living their best new lives. A once in a lifetime not to be missed.

翻译:这是老挝最棒的体验,绝对不容错过。物超所值,而且你知道这笔钱会用于公益事业。我们的导游Rabbit非常棒。他照顾周到,我们和他相处得很愉快,而且他讲解得非常详细。他的英语非常好,考虑到他是自学的,这一点尤其令人印象深刻。司机和导游开着舒适的面包车从酒店接我们。前往保护区的路程很顺利,感觉时间过得飞快,而且保护区离火车站也不远。我们参加的是半日游。到达河岸边的餐厅后,会进行简短的介绍。餐厅会提供带鞋套的鞋子,建议带上袜子。之后,我们会乘船快速到达河对岸。与大象一起徒步非常有趣,节奏舒缓,一点也不累。看着它们在丛林里觅食、嬉戏,最后在河里游泳,真是赏心悦目。之后,我们会乘船返回餐厅,享用美味的午餐。餐厅还提供各种冷饮和啤酒供您购买。这里有一家礼品店,出售一些很棒的当地特色小玩意儿。整个体验轻松惬意,非常自然。这里的保护工作非常符合伦理,你真的能感受到获救的大象们都很快乐,过着它们美好的新生活。一生难得的体验,不容错过。
