First of all, the driver cum guide was extremely good. The organiser/owner was the one who deserves this 1 star, below are the reasons- 1. Doesn't stick to the booking time and give reasons like "It's too early", "Park doesn't open that early". 2. Add services like "Free water" in inclusions and instead of arranging for that, he asked us to bring the water bottles and said that "Shops are not open that early", which doesn't even make sense, as many shops were open at that time and also, it is his duty to arrange for them a day prior if that is the case. Again, the driver was amazing and we even tipped him.

Good Safari Overall..could not be better..taking point away only due to less time in the Jungle area..started at 1230pm ended at 230pm.. There was perfect coordination even though we booked it a day before..it was a rainy day so they shifted the safari timings from 230pm to 12pm..due to rains the elephants move from Minneriya area to Hebbarana area..so they changed it to Hurulu eco park..wise call taken by the organisers..now onto the safari itself.. Mayura was the jeep driver cum driver..should call him photo expert Mayura..perfect guide for people who want to create social media reels or stories..clicked good pics..we saw few elephants and peacocks and birds..no leopard sighted..overall good safari and would recommend it to others.

A great experience with this team. They were so accommodating and friendly. They communicated well via WhatsApp, came to pick us up at our hostel, and took us through the park, stopping for us at an ATM (you need 10k LKR per person for park entrance) and to get water. We saw many animals and they were able to adapt the trip to our needs. Thanks a million.

Despite a lot of confusion before the tour even started, we ended up with a safari better than expected! We didn’t get the advertised tour… no village visit and we went to Hurulu Eco park instead of either of the 2 parks listed (apparently that’s where the elephants where) and entry cost to this park was NOT included in the booking price, which almost led to us cancelling. However we were picked up with a smile in a slightly older jeep, but as it turns out being less flash than the rest of the jeeps in the park meant our driver wasn’t afraid to take it off road to find the best spots.. I’m not sure if it was knowledge or luck but we found a number of groups of elephants, including several baby calves and were able to get pretty close, without disrupting the elephants themselves- our driver was conscious to cut the engine as soon as we got close, especially around the babies!
