A magical place with its magical inhabitants. We're thrilled to be with elephants. Riding one of these and feeding is a separate philosophy altogether. This is the place in Sri Lanka you can't help but visit!
We booked our tour to the national park only one day earlier. We were picked up on time by our guide Semila. Semila made a great trip with us. The first stop was at a turtle rescue station . A really great project. Next stop a moonstone mine. Safire, rubies and many different semi-precious stones. Now off to the national park. There in a jepp and off we went. Leopards, elephants, water buffaloes, peacocks.... everyone was probably waiting for us because, we all saw. The tour guide was very attentive and insanely entertaining. A perfect excursion! Many thanks to Samila, a very thoughtful young man. Thanks to the organizer.
Have already put together several trips according to our wishes before our departure via the agency and what should I write, our expectations were far exceeded. Were in contact with the agency months before departure and were super informed and advised. We were also informed about changes and alternatives were found. In all excursions we were very well and nicely accompanied, wishes were immediately taken into account. The quality and care on site were indescribably good and professional, were really as booked always traveling alone. Price and performance are really very fair. Here you have the opportunity to really see what you want, not only the attractions offered as from the other providers. Semila our guide and also owner of the agency has made this holiday an unforgettable experience for us. Planning for next year definitely to explore with him again the rest of this wonderful country. Goods in Yala National Park 2 Day Tour Kandy and Ella with Train Ride from Hamputale to Ella Bentota River Cruise and Galle Just write to the agency, it's worth it. At Semila you are really in the best hands
We had an amazing time on this trip. Semila is an incredible guide, such a nice guy and very knowledgeable about this wonderful country. The trips were great value for money and really enjoyable and tailored to your own needs. Yala national park is a must see, the driver Semila hired to take us around the park was incredible, and got us up close to a family of elephants....priceless. 5 star, would definitely book again when we return to Sri Lanka.
Thank you very much!
