From the coast to Udawalawe
Start your journey with private transportation from your selected pickup area and travel comfortably towards Udawalawe National Park. Enjoy the changing scenery as you leave the coastal area and travel towards one of Sri Lanka's best-known wildlife destinations.
Udawalawe National Park Safari
Enter Udawalawe National Park in a private safari jeep and explore its natural landscapes with an experienced safari driver. Keep your eyes open for wild elephants and other animals that may be seen during the drive, including water buffalo, crocodiles, monkeys and a variety of birds.
Wildlife sightings are naturally unpredictable, so the exact animals seen during the safari cannot be guaranteed. The safari focuses on observing wildlife responsibly in its natural environment.
Elephant Transit Home
Visit the Udawalawe Elephant Transit Home, a conservation facility caring for orphaned elephant calves with the aim of eventually returning suitable animals to the wild. Observe the baby elephants during a scheduled feeding session from the designated visitor area.
Guests observe the feeding and do not directly handle or feed the elephants. This keeps the experience focused on respectful wildlife observation and conservation.
Return to your hotel
After the safari and selected activities, relax in your private vehicle for the return journey to your pickup location.
