    Wonderful opportunity to see elephants in their nature habitat. The national park is vast with 600 elephants, we were lucky to see 35-40 elephants, some of them came close to our vehicle. There are other animals at the park including water buffalo, deer, eagles, peacocks and other birds. Highly recommend this tour

    Highly recommend this tour. The national park is vast with approx. 600 elephants. We were able to see around 30-40 elephants and some of them came very close to the jeeps so you have a great view to take photos. The park is incredibly peaceful and we also saw water buffalo, deer, eagles and peacocks

    A wonderful experience: elephants, water buffalo, wild boar, a jackal, spotted deer. All so close up. And innumerable beautiful birds. This park seemed to be less busy so there was not the eternal clatter of dozens of Diesel engines. Friendly, knowledgable guide and driver. A very good driver also from the hotel to the handover point and back.
