Important<\/strong>: This experience is water-based and only available to guests who can swim.<\/p>\n

Join us at Adventures With Elephants for our first Mystery Movie Night Fundraiser \u2014 an unforgettable evening where the water becomes your cinema seat and the Bushveld night sets the scene.<\/p>\n

Start the evening with sundowners with the elephants, enjoy something from the snack bar or food stall, then grab your floatation or tubes and float into position as the big screen comes to life on the water, cash & cards accepted.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s all in support of the care and conservation of our elephants, so every ticket helps make a difference. This is a fully immersive conservation fundraising event and space is limited.<\/p>\n
