It is one thing to admire the Sumatran elephants' and enjoy their captivating beauty, but it is an entirely different matter to ride on top of these magnificent creatures. You can play with these gentle giants while they splash around in the water and mud, in addition to having a ride. You can learn all about their lifestyle, and behaviors from a mahout, who has had years of experience with them and has a lot of stories to share. Not only are the majestic creatures a sight to see we also have the beautiful landscapes, waterfall, and the visit to the village temple that dates back to centuries. But it is amazing to see the elephants having fun and enjoying the mud bath, hand-feeding them creates an unforgettable memory.

Key Highlights

  • You have the opportunity to play with the elephants in the mud bath and interact with them.
  • Ride the Sumatran elephants while enjoying the lush greenery and the beautiful waterfall.
  • Learn about their habits and way of life from the knowledgeable mahout.

About Bali Zoo with Elephant Experiences

As you are gliding through on top of a friendly Sumatran elephant you realize you have never seen a view like this. As you pass through the zoo waving at the gibbons, deer, lions, and tigers as they enjoy their open-air sanctuaries. You see the animals peeking around and the birds calling. After the ride across the zoo we cross the Wos rover on the elephant, we guarantee you have never seen the jungle like never before! As you feel calmness and excitement rise through you as you see the beautiful waterfall and a grassy way, the mahout tells you stories and facts about the path before which is five centuries old as we now trek as we sip on a fresh coconut drink towards the village temple. But it's after the elephant ride that comes the fun part, the elephant mud bath, Palembang, Sumatra, is home to the local herd of Sumatran elephants. These remarkable creatures are the largest land animals and are among the world’s most intelligent species, with brains similar to humans. So just like us when it's time to have fun they give it all. The elephant lowers itself into a muddy wallow and you can also help the elephant get covered in mud and scrub them, the mud helps them cool down during the summer months. Then off to a big shower to clean the dirt off and feel rejuvenated. As you bid goodbye to folks of the zoo, you realize that It wasn't just the elephant ride that was great, It was the stroll around the zoo and catching the animals' shows and encounters, and the amazing mud bath fun that created an uncomfortable experience.
