Udawalawe: Safari Privado Único | Elefantes y Vida Salvaje

Absolutely fantastic trip with Gimhana as our guide. Gimhana was brilliant from start to finish. Service, food and knowledge of the wildlife second to none. This was an amazing experience and we were lucky enough to get close to the elephants as they passed by our jeep. Thank you! One to remember! Highly recommend.

Very good experience with our guide Gimhana - friendly, knowledge and very helpful throughout the experience. The whole trip went very smoothly from the pickup to drop off!

This worked out perfectly for us. We needed to get from Ella to Mirissa and had also wanted to do another safari. This option accomplished it all. We chose to do a private transfer and private safari. We were picked up promptly at our hotel in Ella. Our driver Chamara, was kind and helpful. Our safari guide was great as well. Our driver waited with the car and our belongings while we did the safari. Then we were back on the road again and taken right to the front door of our hotel in Mirissa I would definitely recommend this! Well done 🐘🐘🐘

Smooth pick up and transport from Mirissa to Ella, with a fun safari experience. We opted for the morning safari which I'd recommend, since there's more chance to see more elephants (we saw about 15!). Our driver was also really nice, he shared useful information and stopped in a few viewpoints.

It was very fun experience! We saw a lot of elephants, peacocks, monkeys and birds. The ride to Ella was also smooth. Would recommend!

We really enjoyed the Safari tour and saw lots of animals like elefants, peacocks, makaki monkeys, lots of different beautiful birds. The tour guide was very pleasent and provided lots of interesting facts about the animals.

Gimhana was an amazing host. Sorting taxis from hikkaduwa. Safari was fantastic too and great communication would recommend

Amazing tour would highly recommend. The tour guide was super informative and very knowledgeable, kind and friendly. We saw some baby elephants and a pregnant elephant, was amazing to see animals in their natural habitat. The park is alive with wildlife. Thank you for a lovely tour!

If you're looking for an unforgettable safari experience, I highly recommend this tour! From start to finish, the service was outstanding. Our friendly, young (but very safe!) taxi driver picked us up from our hotel, and the Prius easily fit our luggage (2 checked bags and 2 backpacks). The tour owner’s communication beforehand made the process seamless. Once at the safari, the tour owner also served as our guide, and he was excellent, friendly, knowledgeable, and highly skilled at spotting wildlife, especially birds. He ensured we had plenty of time to enjoy each sighting without feeling rushed. During the tour, we saw elephants, peacocks, and at a distance - water buffalos, a crocodile, and an incredible variety of birds at the lake. One thing that stood out, and something not often mentioned in reviews, was the vehicle’s comfort. This is important because the ride can be bumpy, and having seats in good condition made a big difference to our overall enjoyment. It’s worth noting this is a wildlife reserve, not a zoo, so the experience involves quiet moments and natural pacing. Embrace it as an opportunity to see animals in their natural environment, and you’ll cherish every sighting as we did. This was a well-organized, memorable adventure, and I highly recommend it.

We had an incredible safari with Gimhana! We saw many animals who came very close to us! He told us information about each animal we saw & knew which routes to take to where the animals were likely to be. Gimhana also provided us with breakfast and lots of water. Amazing guide and incredible safari experience we will always remember!
