Safaris are an all round breath taking experience, not just getting to see many different species of wildlife in their own environment but also having the opportunity to explore the beautiful scenery that Africa has to offer.

When booking a safari holiday many people think that they do not have a wide choice available to them when it comes to choosing your transport around the area, this is far from the truth. Many safari tour operators offer a choice of transport such as Jeep, biking or even on foot and if looking for one off land, then a boat. But did you know that you can actually do part of a safari riding on the back of one of Africa’s big five, the Elephant?

Shearwater’s herd of twelve elephants can be ridden for approximately three and a half hours around the local area, allowing you to not only have first hand experience with these magnificent animals but to also see the area from a totally new perspective. These elephants have been hand reared from birth and have a very close bond with their handler, giving you the peace of mind that you are in safe hands.
