Close interaction between the elephants and the human benefits all, so
guests are encouraged to spend as much as time possible during stay in
getting to know those wonderful animals. Undisturbed by the mechanical
roar of a car or jeep. Open to the skies accompanied only by the rhythmic
- scuff- scuff- scuff of elephant,s feet and creaks of the wooden howdah.
The ride can be a mix of moments of pure terror interspersed with long
period of utter peace.
