It was beautiful and we had a lot of fun. The team is great and the price absolutely okay. We were just unlucky with the weather otherwise everything was top notch. Our children really enjoyed it too. The little one wanted to go again the next day.
Loved it!

I had a very fun and nice day! Gihan picked me up at the hotel on time and even though we had a lot of issues with flodding on the roads, we made it on time for the Elefant feeding at 2:30pm. The safari was then nearly 3.5h and we saw a lot of elefants and other animals. Most time there were no other jeeps around which I really liked! Thank you Gihan! I really enjoyed the day!
Unforgettable experience, highly recommended!

We had the most experience on the “Private Udawalawa Safari Plus Elephant Transit Home Day Trip”. Gihan was an excellent host and guide who ensured all aspects and our preferences were well taken care of. Gihan was there on time to receive us at our hotel and explained the itinerary very clearly to us on the way to the park. He is a very engaging personality, an excellent conversationalist and is very knowledgeable – we did not even realize the 2 hours journey from Weligama to Udawalawa fly by. The first stop was the Elephant Transit home to watch baby elephant milk feeding -this was an absolute delight and very well organized. After this, we went for the Udawalawa national park safari. Here Gihan arranged a local safari guide/ranger to accompany us and take us through the national park. This was an unforgettable experience where we were able to see wild elephants, crocodiles, deer, monkeys, peacocks, water buffaloes and many birds in their natural habitat. Gihan also arranged for a picturesque picnic spot ideal for a quick bite and beautiful photo op. On the way back, given the late hours Gihan went out of his way to take us to try a local favorite dish – Kottu. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience managed expertly by Gihan and his team from end-to-end. We highly recommend the tour.
The best day in Sri Lanka!

This was the best tour we took in Sri Lanka. Gihan tour guide not only gave us the best elephant safari tour but also helped us with local knowledge. We saw so many animals on our tour, including the elusive leopard. This is the best tour guide you can get in Sri Lanka!
