Hotéis em Minneriya National Park
Descrição
Um grande número de elefantes do Sri Lanka é atraído por gramados nas margens do reservatório durante a estação seca. O tanque Minneriya contribui para sustentar um grande rebanho. Os elefantes reunidos aqui estão em torno de 150-200. Alguns relatórios indicam que o número de elefantes chega a 700. Eles migram para cá do Parque Nacional Wasgamuwa e se beneficiam da comida e abrigo da floresta do parque. Os turistas visitam Minneriya principalmente por causa dos elefantes, especialmente na estação seca.
Opções de passeio
Itinerário
Seu safari começará às 14:30 na opção Safari à noite. Se o seu hotel estiver a um raio de 5 km do portão de entrada, você também receberá uma coleta gratuita do hotel. Caso contrário, você encontrará seu guia no guia de entrada durante o horário de partida selecionado. O parque tem muitos tipos de terra e crescimento. As zonas úmidas se misturam com terras agrícolas e afloramentos rochosos, e as florestas andam de mãos dadas com os matagais. Isso também significa que os tipos de animais selvagens e pássaros que vivem no parque ou o visitam são bastante variados. Você pode ver um crocodilo ou até mesmo um lóris esbelto cinza extremamente raro, se tiver sorte. Um pequeno rebanho de veados pode visitar o reservatório de Minneriya enquanto você assiste de manhã cedo. Se você planeja seu safari para os meses de agosto, setembro ou outubro, poderá ter a chance de ver a congregação de elefantes chamada 'Reunião de Elefantes', com seu número coletivo de mais de 150 elefantes em um só lugar. Dizem que os elefantes chegam de todas as áreas circundantes para esta reunião anualmente. Se você optar pelo safari noturno, que é o melhor momento para conhecer este parque, também poderá ver os elefantes tomando banho diariamente e observar os diferentes tipos de pássaros indo para os ninhos no final do dia. Depois de completar sua natureza de observação de 3 horas em ação, você retornará ao hotel. No passeio noturno, você terminará o passeio às 17h30. Se o seu hotel estiver dentro de um raio de 5 km do portão de entrada, você também receberá uma devolução gratuita diretamente no hotel.

It was great! We enjoyed our private safari, so would highly recommend and worth every penny. We had a great guide and driver. He made sure to point out animals that we might have missed. Made it comfortable to keep distance from other vehicles.

It was a fantastic experience. We have never seen so many elephants together, babies, teenagers, moms, dads. Our safari driver had a great eye and knowledge about animals. Also we saw plenty of birds, deer, and crocodiles too. Would highly recommended

The safari itself was genuinely great, the wildlife, guides, and overall experience in the park were all excellent. However, what happened before and after completely overshadowed it. First, the company changed the safari park last minute, which was further. Second, when my original pick-up person had to go to the hospital, I asked to be dropped off 5 km from the park, well within their advertised free drop-off radius so I could reach Wi-Fi and book a ride home. Simple and reasonable. Instead, they argued that the drop-off had to be at a hotel and demanded I pay extra. After back-and-forth, they dropped me off just 2.5 km from the park gate, in the middle of nowhere, with no phone reception and no Wi-Fi access. I was stranded on the side of the road for over 2.5 hours with no way to call for help, load a map, or book a ride. This was not just poor customer service, it was a safety issue. Their policy clearly states free drop-off within a 5 km radius, with no mention of hotel-only restrictions. They failed to honour that policy and left a customer stranded. I would urge anyone booking with this company to get every policy detail in writing beforehand and have a backup plan for transport, just in case.

We booked a 4 hour safari experience.. Our driver Dhanuska was very skilled and experienced. Took us to the best sights.. About 50 elephants were grazing on the grounds.. Amazing experience.. Super
All was okay. We knew most of the elephants had gone to Hurulu but we wanted to enjoy a park with (very) few tourists. We saw a variety of birdlife, giant squirrels, some monkeys and mongoose. What you actually see depends on time of day, season and luck. Interesting vegetation and landscape.
Visited in Sep/Oct 2025. It was a family vacation. I booked a local safari operator who was amazing (TravCeylon Leisure - managed by Dhanushka Weerasinghe). The driver was polite and explained us a lot of things about the elephant reserve and showed us all that was possible. He was quite friendly and made sure the safari was enjoyable, as well as, comfortable. I have been to many wildlife safaris in the Indian Sub-Continent. This is surely in the Top-10.
Highly recommended if you want to go on safari and spot elephants, besides that he also has an eye for other animals.
The Driver was great and kept us save the whole Trip. He always made sure to stay as long as we wanted at one location. We highly recommend the Driver and the Trip
It was a good experience. I ve seen hundreds elephants in 2 hour. Driver was very friendly helpful kind and informative.
