An unforgettable experience, bringing Elephant and man together in a unique and special way. Walk and interact with Elephants.
Itinerary
Day 1
Guest are guided in small groups on foot through The Elephant Sanctuary. Guides will provide an in-depth information and insight into African Elephants. You are introduces to our elephants in the forest area, where you can touch and interact with them. You can see the special relationship that the elephant handlers share with their elephants and become a part of the experience. This is followed by a short trunk-in-hand walk with the elephant. You also walk through the sleeping stables to get an insight regarding elephant husbandry and the keeping of elephants in captivity. Guests also learn about the animals' anatomy, and have the opportunity to feed them. If your lucky and it is a hot day, you may even see the elephants swimming.
(Following included in the âDeluxeâ Tour only) Watch the elephants bed down for the night, enjoy sundowners and stunning sunset views from the mountain deck before returning to the lodge for a 4-course dineer around a log fire in the boma.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
