4.00We went on the afternoon dusk tour. Great experience and guide! The guide picked us up at our hotel so it was convenient from the beginning. They were very informative and well planned out even before the actual tour, informing us of updates and giving suggestions to go to another Eco Park to maximize our chances of seeing animals. The guide was experienced, being able to track footprints to find the animals for us to view. They were also really kind, going out of their way to buy us coconuts to drink to relieve our dehydration as well as choosing a scenic route back home, letting us snap pictures of the breathtaking sunset sky. We would definitely recommend going with this tour! Definitely worth the value
Highly recommend!

5.00Fantastic experience from start to finish. Our driver was very friendly and made the trip excellent. We had some amazing elephant sightings and it was all because our driver picked great spots to stop. It was also perfect to have a private jeep because many other jeeps were full. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Lovely experience 🐘

4.00We saw so many elephants, it was amazing! Driver took us all around Kaudulla, which is a really beautiful park, and also pointed out birds, water buffalo, and eagles to us. He had great eyes! The only reason I deducted a star is because the driver did not know good English, and so this made it hard to ask questions during the tour and get answers.
