Amazing experience! - We went to the safari with our 15-month old boy and it was a great experience, absolutely worthwhile! The car drive to the national park took around 2-2.5hrs. The driver was great, driving very safely, had a baby seat and also offered us some water and fruits during the drive. Then we transferred to the jeep and started the safari. The naturalist guiding us through the park chose an itinerary that would go through the main roads so it’s not too shaky because of our child. We managed to see all the animals we were hoping for in our 2.5hrs safari: elephants, water buffalos, crocodiles, peacocks, monkeys, wild boars and dears… absolutely amazing and unforgettable to see them from so close! Our son liked it too a lot. Arranging of the trip with Lakpura agency was also very convenient and professional, eth over whatsapp, they would accommodate all our requests and made sure eth was as promised. Payment was online so we didn’t need to have cash which was also more convenient. I can only recommend it to anyone that is in Weligama for few days, even with a very energetic toddler ;)
