What to expect

  1. 3h 30m · Admission ticket included
    Embark on an unforgettable safari adventure in Udawalawe National Park, one of Sri Lanka’s top wildlife destinations. This 3–3.5 hour safari takes you deep into the park’s grasslands, forests, and reservoir areas, giving you the chance to encounter herds of wild elephants in their natural habitat. Along the way, watch for water buffalo, spotted deer, crocodiles, jackals, mongoose, peacocks, and a wide range of bird species, including raptors and water birds.

    With its open landscapes and reliable wildlife sightings, Udawalawe is often considered the best park in Sri Lanka to observe elephants up close, making this safari an ideal choice for nature lovers, photographers, and families.
  2. Elephant Transit Home (ETH)
    30m · Admission ticket included
    Witness milk feeding session at Udawalawe’s Elephant Transit Home is one of the most heartwarming experiences for visitors. Elephants gather in a secure area for their scheduled milk feeding which is carefully bottle-fed by caretakers, who monitor their health and nutrition.

    This sanctuary rescues orphaned baby elephants found in the wild—often separated from their mothers due to natural causes or human conflict—and cares for them until they are strong enough to return safely to their natural habitat.
