Elephant Safari Park

Frommer's Review

The Elephant Safari Park, run by Bali Adventure Tours, is less safari and more elephant ride, and it's a real hoot. These native Sumatra elephants are well cared for and live in large, lush enclosures. The owners have worked carefully with locals from Taro Village, previously one of Bali's most remote and untouched villages, to make sure they leave littleReservations recommended more than elephant tracks. A safari starts with Pachyderm 101, as knowledgeable guides tell about the animals' care and feeding, local ecology, threats to the native population, and preservation efforts. Then, along with a mahout (guide), you'll have a galumphing trip through the jungle. Don't miss the antics of the youngest pachyderm; he's just taken up the game of soccer and can usually be found pouncing on an oversize ball in the central pond. A fun elephant show is staged twice daily at 12:30 and 3:30pm. The price is a bit dear, but they take good care of you here, with a tasty lunch buffet and attentive service.
