Exceeded my expectations - Amila my driver was brilliant. He is very knowledgeable about the wildlife and birdlife, and has an amazing eye to find birds that other driver's drove straight past. I would 100% recommend.

A great tour from the many on offer - The company was responsive and helpful with our last minute booking and flexible on the meeting place. Our guide was very knowledgeable with an excellent eye for spotting animals and happy to stop for the millionth time I saw a bird. Its already stated in their description but be sure to have some $$$ handy for the park entry fee (not included)

Reasonable and effortful - It was a 4-hour tour that picked us up at the hotel at 5:30 and dropped us off at the same hotel at 9:30. However, it had rained two days before that day, and there were plenty of water sources in the jungle deep inside, so the elephants (and other animals?) were having a hard time coming out to the outside of where we were driving in the jeep.
We called the other jeep drivers, exchanged information as we passed each other, and rushed over when we saw something. Because of this, we got stuck in a traffic jam twice, but the drivers cooperated with their skills and cheerfulness.
Thanks to the driver who was patient for several tens of minutes saying "There are no other tours today," we were able to see the elephant from the front.
He explained the animals as soon as he found them. He has "good eyes." For example, even if I'm told that there are four monkeys in one tree, I can only see two. Both of them are naked eyes.
As a result, I saw elephants, peacocks, monkeys, buffaloes, crocodile heads, many birds, and strange insects. There are longer courses, but I don't want any more. I think not encountering any elephants is one of the best parts of a safari. The drive to the park and the sunrise you witness inside the park are also worth it.
My hotel was quite far away, so they dropped me off in time for the elephant orphanage (10:30am feeding time) and then we disbanded. Thank you very much.

Morning safari Udawalawe - The driver arrived late for the morning trip, he was speeding on the way there to compensate but anyway many jeeps had got in before us by the time we started the safari.
At some point he and other drivers of other jeeps were following elephants on a tight road, not leaving room for the elephants to go freely where they wanted and he even used his hand to obstruct the elephant path. Not a great show.
We chose it for the reviews about binoculars and fresh drinks but we were not proposed any fresh drinks, I had to ask for the binoculars that were a bit old and broken.
At some point and after watching some elephants for some time we asked him to move on and continue to see other things but he wasn't happy with the idea so we didn't move. I thought we had the choice since we paid for the trip.
Basic info given about animals encountered, basic english skills. The car was ok modern toyota hilux and comfortable. Twice the price of a cheap tour overall.
He sent me a whatsapp message at 5am telling me to write a review so thats what I am doing.
