Somebody who loves elephants. With ears flapping noisily, trunks swinging and the soft padding of huge feet this is an incredible experience. Following a carefully planned route through the reserve, gently amble across the bush getting closer to wildlife than is usual. Antelope, zebra and wildebeest will continue to graze unconcerned by the proximity of the elephants with their human companions atop.
