Walking with Elephants in Botswana
Here I am utterly dwarfed by the grandeur and size of this magnificent creature. Stanley’s Camp in Botswana offers guests a unique experience like no other.
An Elephant walk is a chance to interact and stroll alongside one of Africa’s most astounding and iconic animals. Being able to see the detail of their wrinkled skin, hearing the thud of their footsteps as they walk and feeling their deep rumbling vocals deep in your chest was simply unforgettable.
Jabu, Thiembe and Malula were rescued from a poorly run theme park and now enjoy a ‘semi wild’ existence at Stanley’s Camp.
