An amazing experience with elephants
I8839HKmarkw,Feb 2, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00My driver / guide was Nuwan and he contacted me the day before the tour to confirm all the details and arrived promptly the morning of the tour. He greeted me with a warm smile and was friendly and personable. The pinnawala experience was amazing. You really get the opportunity to get close to the elephants and watching them bathe in the river was an unforgettable experience!!! Kandy we visited a couple of beautiful temples and I added a third temple to my trip and he and the company were very accommodating. I felt safe with his driving, he provided history and details on the temples and Kandy and got me back to the hotel on time I would highly recommend this trip and Nuwan as your driver / guide
