What travellers are saying
- Jana DWrexham, UK14 contributionsBrilliant tour even though it was an early start. Climbing up little Adam's peak before it got busy and too hot. Amazing views. Walking down the train tracks to the nine arch bridge and then taking the train to ride over it was a great experience. Overall the trip was very well planned and our driver kept looking after us making sure we got on and off the train safely with no issues. Lunch was also included
Would highly recommend the trip and Bentota Travel Mart.Written September 30, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We were there early so were the only boat on the river. Our guide said it gets really busy. Only thing I didn’t like was when we asked if we wanted to hold a baby croc and a man appeared holding one, he wanted 500 slr. I prefer to see the animals in their habitat. The guide was fine when I said no. I was worried about visiting the turtle sanctuary but the guy seems to look after them really well and yes it would be nice if they were in bigger tanks but he does release them back into the wild. The temple was very interesting. The tsunami museum was thought provoking. We didn’t go to see the fishermen as it’s a really long day and it was hot!! Lunch was lovely.

Booked trip to Yala and from the booking to return to hotel everything was great. Clear details provided, name of driver , car details provided evening before, Driver to Yala was great, lunch was much better than expected, 3 courses with choices, i went for the Sri Lankan curry which was very good. Yala was amazing, our safari driver was very good and we were lucky enough to see a leopard, and the elephants having fun at the watering hole was a great experience. Would highly recommend.Written September 9, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Jana Z21 contributionsRoshan and driver are amazing guys! We learned a lot on our way. Forest itself was stunning, we saw a lot of animals. Swimming at the waterfall was also great.
Just be aware that the drive from Induruwa/Bentota is for 3,5 hours one way.Written August 26, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

He shared his local knowledge and insights about the Sri Lankan culture and history. He wasn't only my driver for the tour but also my private photographer who took exceptional photos for me :) I was able to see everything I wanted in just a week. I had a phenomenal experience and it was truly a trip of a lifetime. I highly recommend this tour, especially with Ranga.Written October 3, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Daniel P5 contributionsAmazing experience! It's a long day but totally worth it! We saw tonnes of animals, elephants, crocodiles, monkeys, even a glimpse of a leopard! The Elephant Transit stop wasn't for us but that didn't damper the experience at all! If you wanna see lots of animals in the wild, this is the trip for you.Written August 17, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Dara O4 contributionsA great trip , the sunset tour has a great bonus of going to a secret spot to watch the sunset over the ocean.
Our guide was amazing at spotting all the animals no matter the sizeWritten September 28, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Jana DWrexham, UK14 contributionsHighly recommend trip for Udawalawe Safari. Everything is included in the price and we got picked up from our hotel with no issues. Lunch was included. We picked the afternoon Safari and were lucky to see lots of elephants close to the Safari jeep. They did not seem bothered by us watching us and gave us a lovely display of throwing mud over themselves. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and spotted the animals very easily. The water buffalo took a bath in the lake with quite a few alligators bathing in the sunshine. Overall a great Safari and highly recommend to book with Bentota Travel Mart which was an easy process and kept keeping us up to date throughout.Written September 30, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Jana Z21 contributionsOur tour to Kandy started at 5am at our hotel in Induruwa. On our way to Kandy we visited Milennial elephant foundation - $ 15 per person, we could watch and feed the elephants, it was nice.
Then we went to Kendy Botanical garden, it was great, but we only had an hour here. There were monkeys everywhere that were used to people.
Visiting the temple was an amazing experience, our guide was great.
After that, we were at gen museum and some woodcarving, we didn't know it was on the itinerary and it was quite boring. In the same building was lunch and that was good bufet.
Highlight of the tour after that was visit of tea garden and factory, lady there learned us a lot and we also bought a lot of tea for a great price.
Our driver was really good and we felt safe with him the whole day.Written August 30, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

He was early to pick us up in the afternoon for our tour and very friendly. He had extensive knowledge of the park and all its wildlife, stopping wherever he saw something that to the untrained eye would be impossible!Written August 20, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Jen N1 contributionAmazing trip. Got to see many beautiful places in Sri Lanka. My tour guide Theekshana and driver made my trip extra special with a birthday celebration. I was able to take many pictures and had an overall great trip. The hotels chosen by the company were very good as well.Written July 20, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Lottie M2 contributionsA great time all round! Our tour guide Laksha was extremely lovely and went above and beyond throughout the entire safari. We would 100% recommend this safari to see animals in the wild🙏Written August 21, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Lisa9 contributionsWhat a great day! Our guide Harinda gave us a unique and wonderful experience! He was very friendly and courteous, knew a lot about the animals and plants and took great pictures! We were very lucky with him and saw big and small crocodiles, monkeys, frogs, shrimps, monitor lizards, kingfishers, flying dogs and small bats. We would recommend the tour in a heartbeat!Written September 21, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- LisaRomania15 contributionsWhat an amazing day - being as close as you can get to wild elephants, having a riverside lunch below a canopy of monkeys and excellent guides ( Thakshila and Danika) and service throughout the day. This was definitely one ticked off the bucket list - thanks Tony & team!Written April 15, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
