It's a no-brainer why everyone should go on an elephant safari in Africa. Just look at them! With their brassy trumpets and flapping ears to their swarthy gait and ivory tusks, these gentle giants are one of the most recognisable animals in Africa. Not only are they on everyone's safari bucket list because of their Big 5 status, but they're also revered for their sheer size and strength as the largest land mammals on earth. Plus, their intricate social structures within their herds are fascinating. Are elephants "must-sees" on your upcoming safari holiday? Come with us, we know all the best places to see them.
