“When our elephants first came to EcoValley, they loved it so much they didn’t want to leave!”

These words are from Meena, one of the founders of Elephant EcoValley. “Now that happens to our guests, too.” EcoValley is like a living museum where guests interact with elephants as well as view informative exhibits. In addition, it’s an ideal educational (and fun) attraction for field trips from schools and colleges.

Kids learn like adults and grandparents play like kids again.
