Best day of our lives!!

5.00This by far was the best day of our trip. Doing both safaris in one day is really great and convenient. They picked us up right from our hotel in Tangalle and arranged safari jeeps at both Yala and Udawalawe. Both parks are a must see. The company arranged a delicious lunch and made sure we saw everything in the parks. All 3 drivers were amazing. Highly, highly recommend. We also felt that his safari was done ethically. They didn’t crowd the animals and a park ranger was out there monitoring things as well. While we may have been close to the animals, they could turn around and walk away at any point. We thought they did a great job at respecting the animals. The only thing we wish we would have done differently was skipping the calf milk feeding and spending more time in the parks. Thank you for giving us an unforgettable experience!!
Nice to go to both parks!

5.00Don’t miss out on seeing both parks!! And its actually teally nice to do both in one day, I can recomend this - we could sleep in the trasfer car and be fresh for the safaris. Yala is beautiful- just make sure to ask to go alone and not with other cars, and take off the main road excurtions. We saw many animals, but the leopards where sleeping the day we went. Bring: - warm sweather or little jacket for the morning. Its cold, even on a hot day. - bring a really good facask for the fumes from the cars, they run on diesel and you don’t wanna breath that in. - binoculars - sunscreen - hat (you can also buy cute safari hats on the udawale stop for 1500 rupees)
Great day trip

5.00Driver was punctual and safely got us to each stop. He even took the time to make a few extra stops to allow us to experience a few extra things. The included lunch was also very enjoyable.

5.00We had a wonderful, albeit long day to visit Udawalawe and Yala- trip was well organised and pick up with Dinesh was on time from our hotel. He took us safely to both parks and both of our guides in the parks were friendly and knowledgable- we saw elephants, plenty of birds, lizards, deer, buffalo and were even lucky enough to see a leopard. Lunch in between at Red Pizza was simple but delicious with choices of Sri Lankan, Indian, Chinese and western food plus the staff were friendly and efficient. Of note there were plenty of clean toilet stops throughout the day! We had an excellent day and would definitely recommend.
Beautiful animals

5.00Amazing experience! It's a long day but totally worth it! We saw tonnes of animals, elephants, crocodiles, monkeys, even a glimpse of a leopard! The Elephant Transit stop wasn't for us but that didn't damper the experience at all! If you wanna see lots of animals in the wild, this is the trip for you.
Brilliant trip!

5.00Yala 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.
