Wir kamen sogar in das Vergnügen 4 wilde Elefanten, darunter auch 2 Babys aus sicherer Entfernung zu besichtigen. Untermalt wurde diese Erfahrung durch die exzellente Führung unseres Guides Shane, der uns auf eine sehr sympathische Weise den Tag lang begleitete und viel über die Umgebung kundgeben konnte.”
