If you are looking for a safari holiday in South Africa, then why not consider an elephant safari trip. Imagine exploring Africa on the back of an elephant, this is something many people thought they would only see in films but is now most definitely a reality.
Elephants are very large and strong animals and elephant backed safaris should only be carried out by experienced trainers that have worked with the elephants for many years to establish a good relationship with them.
Three South African game lodges offer elephant-back safaris: Camp Jabulani in Limpopo province, Addo Elephant Back Safaris in the Eastern Cape and the Elephant Sanctuary in Gauteng. If you are considering doing this as part of your safari trip then be sure to speak to a travel agent who will be able to offer you advice on where to go and who to book with to ensure that you are in safe hands and will enjoy the experience as much as you should.
