Best experience

We had an amazing safari experience! Our driver was excellent—very skilled, friendly, and knew exactly where to find the elephants. He got us close enough to see them safely, which made the experience truly unforgettable. Seeing these magnificent animals up close was incredible. If you’re planning an elephant safari, this is the driver you should choose. Highly recommended!

I met a lot of elephants.

I joined the event feeling lucky if I could see elephants, but I was able to meet countless elephants. The guide told me many stories about elephants and he is kind and good at finding animals. We thought we were going to Minnellia, and we had the admission fee in US dollars, but we actually went to another park, so we found out that we could only spend Sri Lankan Rupees, so we were quite impatient. The park I go to depends on the situation that day seems to change. If you contact us on whatsapp, they will respond immediately, so you may want to ask them in advance.
