Very good day tour

We leaved from Weligama at 11am. After two-hour drive and a quick lunch, we spent 45 minutes at the elephant transit home (perfectly matching the 2:30pm feeding time). Then we made the afternoon safari in Udawalawe national park for three hours. Although there was a sudden heavy rain, the safari driver made best efforts to show us what must been seen, including a super close observation on a family of elephants. Very good chauffeur and safari services.
