Udawalawe National Park is one of Sri Lanka’s premier wildlife destinations, home to over 500 elephants and a range of other animals. Your safari includes a visit to the Elephant Transit Home, where rescued orphaned elephants are cared for and bottle-fed in an open viewing area. Following this, explore the park’s open landscapes and vast reservoir to spot large herds of elephants, buffalos, monkeys, deer, and crocodiles. The relatively sparse vegetation improves visibility for spotting wildlife, and lucky visitors may even catch a rare sight of the elusive Sri Lankan leopard. This safari offers a perfect blend of wildlife education and thrilling animal-watching experiences.
