What people are saying about Weligama

Amazing day combined with the convenience of a transfer to Ella! Picked up promptly at 5 AM, and driven to Yalla. The Safari was incredible! Our guide was amazing! He helped us spot tons of animals, and the most gorgeous scenery in the park! Our highlight was when he found us a leopard! So rare! We were so lucky! After the Safari, our driver took us to our hotel in Ella. Start to finish was approximately 8 hours. Highly recommend!

We had a great day exploring the two national parks. Our guide Nalaka was incredible and with his 13 years experience as a safari guide managed to find not only a leopard but also a rarely seen bear! If we ever needed anything he went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. We couldn't recommend this tour more!

Very nice activity where we were able to do 2 parks in one with enough time on site to visit Yala (being the park where we observed the most animals) and Udawalawe.

Superb adventure, the landscapes are incredible. I recommend doing it if you are passing through Sri Lanka

Highlight of our Sri Lanka Trip. Ella you must visit while tour in Sri Lanka.
