Overview

Discover the thrill of Sri Lanka’s wilderness on an unforgettable 4x4 jeep safari through Minneriya, Kaudulla, or Hurulu Eco Park! Follow the elephants, wherever nature takes them! Wild elephant herds move between these parks throughout the year. If they have migrated from Minneriya, we'll help arrange your safari at Kaudulla or Hurulu Eco Park, based on seasonal movements and weather conditions, to maximize your chances of amazing sightings.
Journey through breathtaking grasslands, lush forests, and scenic lakes with an experienced local safari driver. Watch majestic elephants roaming freely and keep your eyes open for deer, monkeys, crocodiles, peacocks, and exotic birds.

Choose a sunrise safari at 6:00 AM or an afternoon adventure at 1:00 PM. Each booking covers one park, with free hotel pickup within 10 km of the park entrance in Habarana or Minneriya.

Book your safari and experience Sri Lanka's wild side!
