Udawalawe Safari

Unclaimed

After researching many safari companies we went with Safari Fun and we were so glad we did. They picked us up on time, and got us home safely. Our driver Naveen was excellent- he was very safe at driving and very informative. He spoke great English and was attentive to our needs and was patient while we watched animals. He went above and beyond to get an umbrella, provide us with yummy breakfast and toilet break. We saw many elephants very close, crocodiles, deer, birds and mongoose. It was a very special day and very happy with Udawalawe Safari Fun.

As our first time doing the safari, we are very pleased with what u could offer us. We booked very easy the safari and everything was perfect. The driver picked us on time, was very polite, informed and had very good costumer service. Thank u Navee! Also we managed to see a lot of elephants today? we got very like! We sincerely recommend u guys!

Collected promptly from our accommodation, assisted with buying the correct tickets and into the park. We were at first worried by the queue of jeeps all going in the same direction, I hated the thought of being in a mass of vehicles all jostling to see a poor elephant by the side of the road, but our driver took the first available route away from the crowds which made for a peaceful and successful viewing of lots of animals, including plenty of elephants. We saw an array of birds, mammals and reptiles. Navee, our driver/guide seemed to be able to spot things out of nowhere. We saw so many different birds, some turtles, a chameleon, some jackals, a crocodile, monitor lizards, a couple of families of elephant up really close - we could have touched them, they were so close (we didn't of course). Other jeeps had given up and left the park by about 10.30, as the previous day's rain had kept the elephants in the interior, but our guide kept on trying and our best sightings were towards the end of the tour. We were so pleased and grateful for his perseverance and expertise. He explained lots of things about the animals to us, his English was easy to understand and very good level. I had taken time to choose the right safari provider - We were very glad we chose Safari fun. Would use again.

Amazing private tour with our guide Navee. Food was really excellent, local cuisine. We saw lots of elephants: 12-13! We also saw a wild fox, lizards, exotic birds,a hawk, mongoose, crocodile, deer, stork, water buffalo and warthog. The best day out, definitely worth it! Binoculars and water provided.

An incredible experience today with our driver Navee! We saw a 2 week old baby elephant with its mother. So many other elephants up close, nobody else around. Navee was the elephant whisperer finding elephants where we were the only jeep. He was so kind and caring with our little girls. Highly recommend doing a tour with this company! So much fun and so knowledgeable! Will definitely be back!
