This is a private ranch that specializes in Elephants! While the farm is not fancy, the owner is truly an expert in Elephants in their natural environment. You get up close and personal with a couple Asian Elephants. It's a bit of a drive in the country, but if you love elephants, it's well worth it! Reservations required.
