Additional Information
Pidurangala, a substantial geological structure, lies just a few kilometers north of Sigiriya in Sri Lanka. Its intriguing history is deeply intertwined with that of the Sigiriya Rock Fortress. The ascent to Pidurangala Rock’s peak is more challenging than Sigiriya’s, but for those who are physically fit and daring, the climb is highly rewarding. Expect to spend around two hours. This spot offers fewer sights than Sigiriya. The Minneriya safari provides a unique journey through Minneriya National Park, renowned for its elephant populations and abundant wildlife.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE! - AMAZING EXPERIENCE! Viran was such an amazing driver, very kind, and the experience was gorgeous! The food was delicious, the safari was a once in a lifetime experience, and Sigiriya is a must-do if visiting Sri Lanka. The management was there for any queries, and always interested if we were having a good time. I am 100% satisfied, and I totally recommend booking this tour.

The tour itself was... - The tour itself was great, but the safari tour was a complete scam. I had to pay an equivalent of 94 USD (29,000 rupees) to have less than 1h30 of safari tour whereas it was:
- low season,
- the prices of the park were between 50 to 60 USD (prices included all fees + jeep rental with driver + pick-up at any location),
- the tour should have lasted 3 hours for the price stated above.
Nothing was justified for the extra fees here. So unfortunately, it was not part of an honest and respectful organization.
