THE ELEPHANTS
Appreciate nature by experiencing the African bush from an elephant's perspective - walking besides them or riding high allows you to get close to the animals. There is no better way of interacting with the wilderness and wildlife of Africa than on an African elephant back safari. Generally the game is not aware of your presence as you gently 'float' through the wilds of Africa in the company of Africa's finest travelling companions.

An elephant back safari is more than just learning about and becoming familiar with one of Africa's most stately, intelligent mammals - the African Elephant. It is a luxurious adventure of relaxed interaction with the herd, enjoying the wilds of Africa and getting aquainted with these gentle giants in a meaningful way.

Close interaction with the elephants and their grooms are possible as days are spent riding, walking or swimming with the elephants. After your elephant back safari experience you will take away memories that will stay with you forever.
