My stay at Pugmarks Jungle Lodge was a thrilling mix of adventure and tranquility. The experience of having a lush forest and wildlife so close was very nice, especially when I spotted wild elephants from the watch tower! However, I did find the pathways to my cottage a bit rocky, which made lugging my bags a bit of a challenge. Overall, it was a fantastic escape into nature. 🐘🌳
