Madura from Ayuli Tours arranged the transfer from Niaveli to Sigiriya and from there to Negombo for us. In Sigiriya, we stayed at Sigiriya Ranasinghe Nature Villa belonging to Ayuli tours and also booked a half day safari to Minneriya led by Madura himself. Everything was organized perfectly, prices are fair, and Sigiriya Ranasinghe Nature Villa is located in a wonderful garden a little bit outside of Sigiriya. Highly recommended for accommodation, organization of transportation and safari experiences!
An incredible experience. Private jeep for my partner and me. 100% guaranteed to see elephants and always respectful of the animals. They take care of everything. Transfer, ticket purchase, etc. You just have to get in the car and enjoy. It is a family business that manages the same accommodation where we spent 5 nights. A lovely family.
It was amazing, we saw a lot of elephants in differents parts of the safari and the guide was nice. It felt too short but we loved it.
・The tour company contacted us to adjust the amount due to a mistake, but they responded quickly with the What’s App. ・The Jeep picked us up earlier than time. ・The Jeep driver who handled this time was very nice. (I wish I had written down my name…) We met other Jeeps in the park, but they were too close to elephants and felt dangerous. In that regard, I felt my driver was keeping the customer happy and safe. I don't know how you can find them in such a large area, but the driver will tell you when he finds them. We were lucky enough to meet a baby peacock and elephant this time. · During safari, you can stand up from the car and look around. Keep your hands off the ceiling railings when passing under low trees. When there were elephants nearby, he told them to be quiet for safety. · You can experience a Jeep like Indiana Jones adventure. The road in the park is bad, so it shakes very much, but the cushions in the car seats are so soft that it doesn't hurt. ・They will show you around the park enough (probably less than 3 hours) that you can probably shorten it if you ask. ・We will also ask you to arrange a car to travel between cities on the safari tour. They were quick and flexible. I always recommend checking the car number of your car. They will tell you in advance.
Thank You Dear Madam
