3-4 Hour Udawalawa Safari

“Navee was very knowledgeable and great at spotting wildlife - I was really happy to have him as our guide. We were incredibly lucky and saw so many elephants, and one even walked right next to the jeep! In the national park we managed to see all the animals except leopards. It was a long day and the transport pick-up wasn’t the nicest, but it was still an incredible experience. Being so close to the elephants was truly mesmerising - I love them so much. We also asked to stop at the Elephant Transit Home before heading back to watch them feeding. They were so funny, and this felt like a much more ethical way to see elephants compared to some other tours. I highly recommend this tour and experience.”

“War echt ein toller Tag, Transfer war pünktlich, wir hatten einen wirklich super Guide der alles wusste, was man ihn fragte und auch etwas Glück weil wir im Jeep alleine waren wodurch die Safari super persönlich war und quasi nur für uns gemacht wurde. Danach waren wir noch im elephant transit park (optional) was aber auch ein tolles Erlebnis war. Würde ich immer wieder dort machen”
