Witness the Majesty
The African Elephant is the largest land animal on Earth and can be found in multiple countries throughout the continent.
The biggest African elephants have been measured at 7.5m long, 3.3m high, weighing up to 6 tonnes – they really do dwarf any safari vehicle and remind you how inferior we are.
Elephants travel in a ‘herd’ which is made up of family units, units usually contain around 10 individuals however units can join together to make a ‘clan’ which can include up to 70!
Some of the best places to get a fabulous pachyderm experience are the Okavango Delta, Motswari Game Reserve and Tarangire National Park.
Unfortunately, these beautiful creatures are still under severe threat from poachers, habitat loss and human conflict.
There is something really special about seeing an elephant in the wild

Our Difference
The Far & Wild Community...
We think that the best people to talk about an experience are those directly linked to it. Our website and brochures let the ‘real experts’ show their stuff… local experts, travellers & industry insiders. Look out for the coloured markers all around the site... they mean that you are reading something contributed directly by a person from one of these different parts of the community we are part of.
The best memories aren’t simply places and hotels, they are made up of experiences and people… that’s why our focus is on using our community to make your holiday COME TO LIFE.
