Walk with the Elephant, Not on It: What Makes This Ethical

Why the Ethical Elephant Walk is the Better Alternative to Riding

Elephant riding harms animals physically and emotionally. Our Ethical Elephant Walk promotes elephant-friendly tourism in Nepal, respecting their natural behavior and space.

Elephant Safari or Elephant Walk? Replace the Elephant Safari in Chitwan

Ditch the outdated elephant safari in Chitwan and walk side by side with elephants in their natural surroundings. It’s a more intimate, respectful, and enriching experience.

What a 2-Hour Walk with the Elephant in Chitwan Looks Like
