Unforgettable experience - We were picked up at our stay by our driver. Very friendly and had 22 years of experience so he could tell a bit more about the elephants. We have seen 100+ elephants, great experience. Respecting the animals, driver was also a lover

Great wildlife experience and service - Really great experience, we saw so many elephants, as well as other wildlife (eagles, jackals, monkeys etc.)!
Asela was really awesome too. Really responsive to my questions and even helped organise a driver for us to take us from Colombo to Sigiriya.
Would definitely recommend this experience and Asela!

Amazing safari experience - Amazing safari experience on Minneriya park. Our driver was very experienced and skilled to give us the best views of the elephants. Also give us interesting information about the elephants. It was a 3 hour safari but we even stayed a bit longer to take maximum profit of our visit to the park.

An Amazing Experience!! - My sister & I had an amazing experience on this day with Asela. His knowledge & experience was the best, & thanks to him, my sisters dream elephant safari came true! He knew the movements of the herds, & we were able to see so much magic on this beautiful day!

Amazing visit to see elephants - I found Asela through TA with amazing ratings. Found the number on WhatsApp and messaged Asela. We have a 3 year old so wanted a driver that would drive fairly carefully and also an earlier 2pm start. Asela was happy to accommodate this and we booked him with no issues. Asela recommended we go to Minneriya as there were more elephants there the previous day. Asela started the trip with handing us out 3 bottles of iced water- a nice touch given the warm weather. Asela also arranged an excellent guide for us who showed us some grey langurs,exotic birds and gave us some top commentary on the elephant herds and their behaviour patterns. Highly recommend this. Safe and respectful driver- 100% recommend Asela especially if travelling with a family. Very personal service and great communication via WhatsApp

Elephant love - The safari tor Kadulla is breath taking the lake is beautiful unlike any other and there are over 50 elephants you can also see them cross the lake and you see babies as well as special ones with tusk. The driver sits for as long as you’d like to take photos etc. you can watch the sunset if you do the evening one and it’s beautiful. You feel like you went to another planet really it’s that beautiful there. You can also see the elephants play around and tussle with one another it’s so cute to watch.

Great elephant safari! - The safari was great! We spotted a lot of elephants and the driver, who was also the guide, made sure we had our time to watch them. In general the driver was very kind. The jeep he picked us up with was great and we where allowed to stand up in it throughout the safari. He even brought some cold water and fruity snacks.
After the safari we received a whatsapp message from the boss of the company. He was disappointed that we did not write this review sooner and started asking about it. So if you are reading this; have some patience please. This was the only downside of the experience.

Great experience - The safari tour through the national park was great!
Our guide took a lot of time to stop at the places where the elephants were. We stayed in the park until the end.
He could answer all our questions well.
The tour is definitely worth it and was an unforgettable experience!
