A fantastic multi safari day trip - Yala safari and the Elephant orphanage were the highlight of out trip. We saw all wildlife apart from the elusive leopard. Udawalawe is great for the variety of birds. The whole trip was well organised. Staff were superb and very friendly. A very long day but very memorable.

Great Safari day!! - We were supplied with a fantastic driver that picked us up from our resort, and drove us directly to the first park. Udawalwe park is amazing for elephants. We had a great driver and guide and we saw a huge number of animals, up close and varied. We then went to watch a huge amount of baby elephants (orphaned :( ) being fed. This was fun, and pretty quick. Our driver then whisked us to lunch, which was very nice indeed. Super friendly staff, great food. Then on to Yala park, and we had yet another 5 star driver. He'd been working there for 32 years and knew everything there was to know. He's the really lucky part, we were blessed to see a leopard after only around 10 mins of being at the park. This is not normal, there are only around 35 leopards at the park and they don't like to be on show! We were very lucky. We saw a great variety of animals, crocodile, water buffalo, mongoose, monitor lizards, frogs, so many birds, elephants, this list goes on. Then back to our hotel without a hitch I highly recommend this trip! Thank you Bentota and team!!!

Tons of cool wildlife! Recommend! - We loved this trip, we saw so much, there is just tons of different wildlife in Sri Lanka and this is great way to see a lot of it. Brilliant guides throughout too, 100% recommend.

Unforgettable Day - This was our second excursion did with BTM and this was the best day of our holiday. Early morning pick up was very worth it as we we lucky enough to spot a leopard within 30 minutes after we started Yala Safari. Both Safaris were equally good. Provided everything as agreed in the booking and Sam was always in touch with us from our arrival to Sri Lanka. Thank You again for Sam & his Team for providing very good service for us making our holiday unforgettable.

One memorable day! - What an absolutely fantastic day out! We were collected on time by a happy Rahul who whisked us away for our 2 safaris in one day! An exhilarating tour after breakfast was followed by lunch, watching the orphan elephants at feeding time then the afternoon safari, where the animals and landscapes were breathtaking!! It really couldn’t have been better!!

A must have tour with excellent guides! - Excellent tour, the perfect way to explore two parks, see the elephants and get great information about the different birds and animals. everything was arranged perfectly, we just had to be there and enjoy!

A must have experience - The trip was excellent! Our guide at udawalawe was exceptional, he worked hard to spot interesting birds and let us know their behaviour to get the best shots. Everything was taken care of for us and we had an excellent experience. Thus was the second trip we take with 'Bentota Travel Mart' and their service is excellent!

Day to remember for life time - everything went exactly as planned and discussed before book the trip. all the timing of the day was superb. Both safaris were amazing. Milk feeding session was very interesting too. local buffet lunch was very delicious. thank you Sam for arranging this during our short stay in Sri Lanka.

An abundance of wild Sri Lankan animals - Our one day trip started at 4am from Sri Lanka Beach Resort Hotel with our driver for the day Dinesh and arranged bespoke by Sam at Bentota Travel Mart. We wanted wanted to visit the two main parks in one day and that's exactly what we did. First arriving in Yala after a quick breakfast arranged by Sam on the outskirts of the park so we got in early as sun rises, when animals are still a bit active. Well what am experience, the list of animals was endless, this was our list in Yala on just four hours: Tree beatle bird (green) Demoon (elephant with tusks) Mongoose Monitor lizard Leopard Parakeet Peacock Black bear Water buffalo Buffalo Kingfisher Pelican Hawk eagle Eagle Iguana Gecko Wild boar Bee eater bird Miner bird Blue tail bird Crocodile Spotted deer Brown monkey Black face monkey The main one for us was the leopard, young one just drinking by a pool, I understand there are just 20/25 in the park, how lucky were we. We then went to Udawalawe elephant orphanage for milk feeding of mostly baby elephants. Then afternoon in Udawalawe National Park, this one mostly elephants, but we did see wild boar to. We got tropical rain later on and the elephants loved it, chucking mud on their backs I understand as after sun. Included in our day was a nice lunch and cold water all day. This trip was amazing, we will be booking with you again next time Sam and thanks Dinesh for an amazing experience. Loved it

Great wildlife parks - The two national parks are incredible with a huge variety of wildlife, especially birds. There is a tendency for the guides to rush to leopard sittings and these can be overcrowded so please tell your guide if you feel there are too many vehicles at a sighting. The Buddhist temple was very interesting and broke up the day in a good way (plus it has monkeys). We are grateful to our guide Dinesh for taking us there. The orphan elephant feeding was a bit dispiriting as the keepers used sticks to discipline the elephants. An option of dropping the elephant feeding and having a long lunch at the Red restaurant (where the breakfast is) would be better suited to our tastes. The lunch restaurant in the itinerary is fine but far from exciting. Sam, the manager from Bentota travel mart was very helpful with all the information and that really helped. Our driver Dinesh was professional and pleasant.
