Appreciate the video! I moved down to FL with my wife and daughter about a year and a half ago and didn't know about this place until recently. Thanks for sharing your experience and showing some of what they have to offer. Going to book a date as a Mother's Day gift!
I'm glad I could share this experience with you. Enjoy your experience there!
They’re living their best lives.
I know right? They get a full spa treatment every day.
I want to go here, I love elephants and live in Sarasota!! So you basically pay to do their work? Great idea on their part! I still want to go!
Awesome! Yeah it's just out east in Myakka. Not too bad of a drive depending on where you are in Sarasota.
You get education about the elephants as well as the opportunity give the elephants a spa treatment. So yes, you are essentially paying to do their work lol. Genius business idea on their part but honestly, how many people can say they've scrubbed or washed an elephant?
Overall a really cool experience being that close to an elephant.
What kind of soap you give them because of there sensitive skin
I'm really not sure what kind of soap they use. I am sure they use a very special soap for the elephants since they are a ranch that specializes in the care of elephants. If you'd like to learn more, you can contact the ranch: www.myakkaelephantranch.org/.
hey is this the rise & shine vip or just the spa reservation
This is the Spa Encounter package. You take turns with a group of about 20 people to spray, scrub, and bathe the elephants. Afterwards you get the educational session from the caretakers.
@@SofieAndStephen thanks for the reply & that’s what i thought. are you able to take pictures with the elephants outside at all?
@@FreshhCutz In the video you can see where we took pictures -- standing in front of the elephants but separated by a gate/fencing. Once the elephants are outside, you can take pictures of them but not with them.
@@SofieAndStephen thank you just bought my ticket. have a great day
@@FreshhCutz Enjoy! Let me know what you think of your experience.
Where are the babies?
I'm not sure that there are babies at the facility. I didn't see any. I believe they just have the 3 adult elephants.
