Private Bentota River Safari Wildlife Abenteuer und malerische Ausblicke

It was an amazing experience! We saw a lot of wild animals and learned so much, i will never forget this tour! Thushara was super nice and treated us like old friends! We had a lot of fun together, he was open to our wishes and shared a lot of his knowledge and experience with us, so we had the chance to learn about some local stuff. I would totally recommend it!

We had a wonderful time on the Bentota River. The whole trip was relaxing, well organised and very enjoyable for our family. We saw monkeys, different birds, monitor lizards and even crocodiles along the river. Thushara was friendly, patient and very knowledgeable about the wildlife and the area. He made sure the children were interested and comfortable throughout the trip. The mangroves and peaceful scenery were beautiful, and it was a great way to experience the natural side of Sri Lanka. We would definitely recommend HID Bentota River Trip to anyone visiting Bentota, especially families. A memorable experience from our holiday!

Very good experience. The trip was very planned and was extremely flexible for our family (adults + kid). Thanks for the warm hospitality.

Best trip in Sri Lanka! So many different animals, monkey, crocodiles, bats, big lizards ….. Thushara is the best!

What a great safari!! We saw all the possible animals and Thushara was organising everything perfectly. Thushara is very kind, helpful and trustworthy.

A very beautiful, impressive boat tour with the best guide one could imagine.

It was a fantastic river safari and showed us a completely different side of Sri Lanka. We saw many amazing animals and were able to take some great photos. It was especially special that we had the boat all to ourselves. Thushara organized everything perfectly – 100% reliable and very friendly. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience that I would happily do again anytime.

We had the pleasure of taking a river safari with Thushara during our visit to Sri Lanka, and it was one of the highlights of our entire trip. Thushara took us on a fantastic boat tour through the river, where we were lucky enough to see an incredible variety of wildlife, including many different species of birds, bats, monitor lizards, crocodiles, and even monkeys that we were able to feed. His knowledge of the local area, wildlife, and ecosystem was outstanding, and he was happy to answer all of our questions throughout the trip. What made the experience even more special was Thushara himself. He was friendly, welcoming, professional, and very easy to get along with. His passion for the area really shines through and made the tour both educational and enjoyable. If you're visiting Sri Lanka and have the opportunity to take a tour with Thushara, I would highly recommend it. A truly memorable experience and well deserving of 5 stars! Thank you, Thushara, for helping create such wonderful memories of our time in Sri Lanka!" 😊

If you want to see animals and, as far as possible in a densely populated country, untouched nature, then you are in the right place.

We had a fantastic family experience on the Bentota River trip in April 2026. The trip was very enjoyable, relaxing, and well organised from start to finish. The scenery along the river was beautiful, with mangroves, wildlife, and a very peaceful atmosphere. The guide was friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable, and made the trip interesting for both adults and children. We felt safe throughout the journey, and the whole experience was a great way to see a different side of wildlife, especially for children. I would definitely recommend this trip to families visiting Bentota. It was one of the most memorable parts of our holiday.
