First of all, I can't believe it has any positive reviews, since the people I have met that has taken part of this trip never have had much positive to say.

The village tour starts off with a delightful show given by the elephants. The antics range from running a flag up a pole, to moving and stacking logs and even painting a remarkably good picture of a tree.
