This was an unforgettable experience. We managed to see plenty of elephants and get very close without being an inconvenience for them. I didn’t expect to see them as close as we did.

Excellent tour to Hurulu, we saw so many elephants including babies! Our guide Bhashi had an eagle eye and spotted so much wildlife as well as the elephants and water buffalo. He obviously cared a lot about elephants and shared his knowledge with us. Thank you for a great afternoon.
Fabulous!

Everything was perfect. Our guide was both lovely and efficient. The trip was very smooth, we really liked the fact that they adapt which park to go to according to where elephants are depending on the weather. We saw a lot of them, quite closely and had a great time. Thank you to the team
