the safari park is east and Taro is above Ubud.
At Taro the ride was on seats but then at the end the elephant was in the water and we were at the edge and sitting on him getting photos and feeding him. He seemed to love it and we certainly did!
We have done elephant rides at 3 places in Bali and all you had to sit on the bench type seats. But at the end in Taro we were sitting on his feet etc. We also went to one called "bakas"?? which had white water rafting there also and you rode through a village. On this ride the man let my girls sit on the elephants neck in the ride and then they had photos at the end being lifted up on the trunk. All three places were good but I enjoyed Taro the best.
