Bentota River Wildlife Boat Safari

Shan and Dinesh were informative, friendly and focussed on showing us all to be seen on the river with all questions well answered! We saw black faced monkeys large and small crocodiles water monitors and a variety of birds. Had an amazing time after adjusting departure due to naughty weather gods. Even enjoyed festival food from our tuk tuk on the way back to our villa

We had a wonderful boat trip through the mangrove forest. Ashen picked us up from our hotel right on time and gave us a very warm welcome. After a short drive, we boarded the boat, and thanks to his keen eye, he was able to show us the first wild animals after only a short time. We fed monkeys and saw crocodiles, various birds, and lizards. The excursion was truly fantastic and absolutely worth the money. Thank you very much!

We had an unforgettable morning with Shana with many downs and drives through the mangrove forests. Everything fit perfectly, thank you!

Fantastic river safari over 2 hours long along mangrove swamp river tributary .. exciting & stunning. Our guide Keveesha very friendly & knowledgeable genuine nice guy Spotted small crocks & lizards ... Then a huge 6 foot monitor lizard swam close to the boat WoW .. fed monkeys . Finally he spotted a monster crocodile resting along the river bank it was massive.. just like those on TV shows made my day ... Cheaper than other boat trips ... Well worth every penny.... Oops sorry rupee.. highly recommended.

A very enjoyable trip on the Bentota River. Pick up and return trip worked perfectly. We were pleased to be accompanied by Kaveesha who along with the Captain, helped with the bird, bats, crocodile spotting and provided lots of interesting information about the area. The scenery was beautiful and it was a lovely experience sailing through the mangroves. Highly recommended and great value.
