South African Elephant Safari

So, you looking to go on a south african elephant safari?
I would say you are choosing a very interesting way
to see the beautiful wildlife of the the africa.

Forget the jeeps, experience your safari the green
and natural way. On the back of a 6 tonne wild animal that
you will absolutely fall in love with.

You will be able to get really close to the other
animals because the elephant produces a mask that
covers yours, so that other wildlife such as girafes,
rhinos, wild buck will not get alarmed when you get close.

As far as they are concerned its just big old elephant
friend walking next to them and minding his own business
the same way he would if he was in the wild. On an elephant
back safari you are likely to have the best game
viewing adventure of your life.

So is it not uncomfortable to be riding on the back
of an african elephant? It does look rough doesn’t it?
Well don’t be alarmed you will get a nice comfortable saddle
to sit on and you will also get a handler to help you
control the elephant, so basically you just sit and relax.

South African Elephant Safaris can be just a day long or
can go on for up to a week. Your meals and accomodation
will usually be covered depending on the packages you
