An Age-Old Concept, A Brand New Adventure

Join Chikwenya, Sharu, Mana, Sapi, Michael and their newest member, Lesego (born November 15th, 2006) for an extraordinary and exhilarating journey along ancient game trails. Seated comfortably on the back of Nature’s true “King of the Beasts”, experience an age-old African tradition whilst silently exploring the majestic Letsatsing Reserve and the secrets of their resident wildlife, unnoticed. Being witness to this mutually enriching and rewarding relationship between man and elephant in a modern day Africa promises to add perspective to each visitor’s perception of the African elephant, and their on-going plight across our African Continent.

With Wild Horizons as your experienced hosts, guests are encouraged to get close to these gentle giants and awarded the wonderful opportunity to learn more about them; their lifestyle, fascinating social bonds, intelligence and sometime mysterious behaviour. Scheduled elephant-back safaris run daily, promising visitors much more than just a game-viewing experience, but a closer insight into the world’s largest mammal, the African Elephant.

Elephant–Back Safaris: Scheduled trips leave from the Welcome Desk, Sun City. Guests are transferred to the “Elephant Wallow” where they are met by experienced Elephant Guides, who will host them on their safari. This elephant experience takes approximately 3 hours. Light snacks are served on “The Wallow” terrace after the safari. Return transfer is back to the Welcome Centre.

Elephant Interaction: Guests are transferred to “The Elephant Wallow” from the Welcome Desk, Sun City.
