ELEPHANT BACK SAFARIS

THE EXPERIENCE
Kapama Private Game Reserve rescued 12 trained, African elephants from Zimbabwe in 2002 and can now offer a unique experience - elephant back safaris. You will be seated on a comfortable canvas covered saddle, mounted behind an experienced elephant handler. This dreamlike adventure offers an unforgettable experience and allows you to come in close contact with the rest of the "Big 5" - Rhino, Leopard, Buffalo and Lion.
This truly memorable experience lasts for about 4 hours and includes a bush picnic, and a bush walk accompanied by a qualified ranger. You also get the opportunity to interact with these amazing animals.

THE ACCOMMODATION
You have a choice of lodges while visiting Kapama, all very well appointed and prices start from R1950.00 pp sharing upwards. All meals, teas/coffees & pastries are included in your stay, as well as 2 game drives a day in open safari vehicles. Camp Jabulani is the newest Lodge on the reserve and is a very up-market, exclusive camp. Prices on request.

THE AREA
Situated close to the Kruger National Park, this makes a perfect stop-over when visiting Mpumalanga Province. From Kapama you can continue your travels south to explore the beautiful Panorama Route, Blyde River Canyon, historical Pilgrim's Rest, Mac Mac Falls and even continue onto Swaziland and KwaZulu-Natal. This makes for a great round trip, either starting in Durban and ending in Johannesburg or vice versa. Elephant safaris are also available in the Eastern Cape.

Another great way in which to view the African wildlife is on a horse.
