Friendliest crew for Udawalawe - Friendliest team, amazingly nice and welcoming people! Stayed over for the night in the park and had a genuine experience with Chaturanga and his colleagues. Fully recommended. Hope to come back!

Lovely tour, recommended. - Really enjoyed our jeep tour safari of Udawalawe National Park. Communication beforehand was great, we were picked up on time, we saw lots of elephants, crocodiles, eagles, hornbills, bee eaters. We were never rushed and always asked if we were happy to move on. Really good. We also had a good priced transfer to Tangalle, again no problems. Many thanks.

Amazing safari experience, saw so many elephants! - Amazing Safari experience! Our driver, Lasanta, was very knowledgeable, friendly and helped us to find the most wildlife he could 🐘 The food we were served for breakfast and lunch was delicious and home-cooked. We saw so many elephants. It was a really amazing experience, would definitely recommend this tour. We chose to do the full day experience, but had seen everything by lunch so could have done the half day, although every day is is different so you are not guaranteed to see anything!

Udawalawe safari - We were picked up at our hotel in Mirissa by Chathuranga and took to Udawalawe. He was friendly and on time and the journey was easy. He then arranged for us to have a safari and came with us, he took photos for us and guided us around. Finally due to the fuel crisis in Sri Lanka, he was unable to get fuel for our outward journey to Ella so found a replacement at the same price and checked in regularly to make sure everything was okay. It was the best price around and we spoke to a few companies- it was simply brilliant!

A once in a lifetime experience, up-close with exotic animals. - Words cannot express the profound joy my kids had seeing up close exotic fauna, most especially the elephants. For sure, it is something that they'll not forget in a long time 🙂 The tour was reasonably priced, our driver was very helpful. The ride from/to the hotel was smooth, and hassle-free. This tour group, is highly recommended! 👍👍👍👍👍 💖💖💖💖💖

Great Experience - We spent a half day at Udawalawe Safari Park and we were not disappointed! We were picked up from our airport on time and driven to the park early in the morning. The main driver was a nice guy and knew what he was doing and above all knew the park really well. This is crucial on a half day so it’s not spent following everyone else. We saw lots of elephants and amazing families bathing in the water holes which took your breath away and made you feel very humble. It was a great experience and I highly recommend it.

It was a wonderful experience thanks to the driver - The driver was also a perfect guide. He saw many animals that we would not have noticed. He also explained a lot of things about the park and animals. Thanks for the experience! (Unfortunately, I do not remember the driver's name)

Lovely safari - Seeing Asian elephants was a reason why we chose to come to Sri Lanka, and visiting this park was definitely a highlight of our trip. There were not too many other jeeps in the park - we were there in a pretty quite time of the year. The tour diver was very good to us, making sure we were happy. I would recommend this company. I think that they could be more focused on the well being of the animals, by giving the elephants some space for example. It is also our responsibility as customers to let them know that we don't need to come too close to wildlife to appreciate it.
