5.00Saw a lot of different animals and Sheran could answer every question we had about the animals. We did the 6 hrs tour with homemade breakfast included inside the national park. We had a lot of fun and came very close to an elephant couple. Entry to the national park is also included in the price

5.00We did a 4hour safari with Sheran and it was perfect! He showed us many animals that we probably wouldn't have seen without him! In addition, he could answer any question and gave us exciting information about different animals. We would definitely recommend him:)
Great visit!

5.00Thank you Sheran for this wonderful time in Udawalawe Park! Sheran is a very professional guide, kind and passionate about his work. Thanks to his knowledge and patience, we were able to spend special moments observing the animals in the park, without anyone else around! He was also super friendly with our 3-year-old son! I highly recommend it

5.00It war really so amazing! We had a truly wonderful safari with everything that we could hope for. We saw so many different animals – my personal highlight was a baby elephant! Sheeren was awesome; he guided us to amazing places, explained everything and was extremely respectful to the animals and nature. What made it even more special was his constant effort to find quiet, secluded spots away from the other jeeps. Thank you so much!

5.00We loved the safari with Sheran, a top guide who knows the park perfectly and knows how to get away from Jeep groups and show us beautiful things always in the respect of animals. A passionate and very competent guide. What about the breakfast, very hearty by the lake, a magical moment. In short we recommend the eyes Closed!
Great experience!

5.00Sheran is a great driver! Very friendly, passionate about nature and with all the best will to show us several animals. We had the chance to come across a family of 4 elephants just for us, without any other jeep, thanks to his sharp eye. His driving is perfect. I will pass through him without hesitation!
