the elephant ride takes about 20 minutes. it was awesome. we were 3 metres from the white rhino, the elepahnt takes you downhill which is quite steep,then along a track,past animals,thru a canal and then back up the hill.
It was incredible. it is uncomforatble though becaue youre sitting either on the shoudler joints or the hip joints with a thick pad over it but you still feel every roll of its gait and you have a small frame around you to hang on to. I was convinced i was going to fall off the back at first lol
I loved it but lwouldnt do it a second time because i have arthritis,and i found it a bit painful afterwards,but i am so glad i had the experience, it really was wonderful.
cheers
