Udawalawe: Safari Éléphants Inoubliable & Rencontres Sauvages

Nous avons fait un safari, c’était top. Je vous recommande d’arriver de bonne heure, soit à 6h00 à l’ouverture pour profiter pleinement et éviter la valse des Jeep pendant la journée qui peut faire fuir les animaux. Nous avons vu une trentaine d’éléphants, des buffles, des paons, des faons et plein d’oiseaux de toute sorte. Un émerveillement. Nous avions choisi une jeep pour 2, peut-être pas la solution la plus écolo mais très sympa. Coût du safari 104$ pour 2 personnes.

Lors de notre voyage au SRI-LANKA,nous avons fait un safari dans ce parc et nous avons eu l immense joie de tomber nez à nez avec des éléphants et éléphanteaux. Mais aussi de nombreux oiseaux, des biches, des pains, des aigles,des buffles. Des rencontres inoubliables. On recommande vivement ce lieu

Excellent parc. Tous les 4x4 se retrouvent à l'entrée du parc à 5:50, juste avant l'ouverture et après c'est un peu l'industrie et on se retrouve à 10 voitures autour des premiers éléphants. Ensuite ça se dilue et on peut profiter pleinement du parc, des étangs avec buffles, éléphants et crocodiles - et les paons ainsi que quelques aigles.

Le chauffeur était à soins. Durant cette période nous étions très peu sur le parc. Le seul hic c’est…. À part 8 éléphants… il n’y a….. rien….. à part des paons !

Parcours avec guide francophone sur le parc.parcour magnifique ou l on a pu croiser des troupeau d éléphant des oiseaux, des paons ,des iguane,et plein d autres especes

Not many elephants in Sept and August they are up north in Aug and Sept. Better other times of year. Enjoyed our time with two very friendly baby elephants.

BRILLIANT. If you love elephants and you want to see LOTS of animals and birds l, this is the one for you. You’re guaranteed to see lots and lots of wildlife. I can’t recommend this enough.

The safari was perfect. We saw lots of elephants up close, lots of birds, monkeys, buffalo, and crocodiles. Shameera was very friendly and made it very enjoyable. I recommend it.

The safari was amazing and though at times it felt busy with jeeps it wasn’t uncomfortable. Our guide on safari was Max, and he was super knowledgeable and was such a calm presence. It felt like we were being really respectful of the animals. We mostly had our engine off just admiring everything from elephants to little green bee eaters. I thought there would be a cash line somewhere on the way so I could get a tip for max but had to go away and get one and come back. Be warned! Kani our transfer driver was the ultimate professional from start to finish. We were so happy with the service. He was really lovely and chatty and gave us lots of interesting facts and history on Sri Lanka and the areas he took us to. He also was a very good driver, the journeys were really smooth which allowed us to sleep on the early morning pickups. We would give Kani 5 stars and would count ourselves very lucky if we were ever to have him as our driver again.

Our guide was fantastic, very observant and we were lucky to see crocodiles, elephants :) and lots of birds. On arrival it was very busy and lots of 4x4s crowded together, mostly empty which was sad as we could have shared vehicles and reduced the traffic. However, once we got properly into the park it was much quieter and barely saw anyone else. Lovely picnic spot by the river and the baby elephant made me happy
