We visited AEBS in March 2011, staying for 1 night. The accommodation is tented and is very comfortable. The food was delicious and the staff took excellent care of us, even with 2 of us having specific dietary requirements. We had an amazing personal experience with the 3 elephants. First, we rode on their backs, which, although obviously (a personal... More

I would strongly recommend that you try to be on the small Landrover (space for approx. 7 people) and not the large vehicle. From the car, we had a fantastic view and the driver drove off-road. thus we had... More

We really enjoyed riding and feeding the elephants; it was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We also enjoyed talking with the friendly guides. However, we didn't enjoy the long and quite frightening drive there. The mountain road is unpaved, very narrow, and is in horrible condition; you must drive very slowly. It took us twice as long to get there as... More
