i'm sure we will see lots of moaning on Facebook (animal abuse, etc)

Surprising it took TAR this long to get there.

The Vietnamese edition already made the inaugural visit four years ago.

Yeah, I know. I didn't know how to find their episodes, though.

I was in Luang Prabang two days after they left. (Ugh, I would have really wanted to get a pic of Phil, the teams and the clueboxes.)

I did try the same elephant camp tour that the teams did. You can refer to their website below to make your own judgement of the place.

Elephant Village is pleased to announce that as of 1st September, 2016 we have completely removed the Howdah from all of our Elephant Village Tours!

We are proud to be the only elephant camp in Luang Prabang to be phasing out the elephant seat (howdah).  We hope you enjoy spending time with our elephants in this new, exciting way!
