Unforgettable special day only achieved by Dilanka! - My safari experience was made absolutely amazing because of my driver Dilanka. He went above and beyond to make sure we saw as many animals as possible! We were lucky enough to see 2 leopards on our tour and we saw everything from elephants, water buffalo, monkeys, peacocks, jackal, spotted deer and heaps of different birds. We never felt crowded by the other jeeps, often the first to arrive to see the animals, and he was so informative on all the animals, answering all my questions! He also provided a delicious Sri Lankan breakfast which we enjoyed next to a herd of waterbuffalo who were grazing so it was just such a special experience! I would recommend him/the business to anyone! He made my day so special!

Experienced & Delivered! We saw leopards! - We had an incredible safari with Dilanka as our driver! He is extremely experienced and knows the park inside out — we saw elephants, monkeys, eagles, deer, mongoose, alligators and more! We saw 3 leopards and even a sloth bear, which is so rare! At one point a leopard ran just a meter from our truck — an unforgettable moment. It was clear Dilanka’s knowledge made all the difference.
The truck was really comfortable, breakfast and lunch were delicious Sri Lankan food, and the price was fantastic compared to other companies. Couldn’t recommend Dinuka team more! We did all day tour.

Leopards with dilanka. the best driver - 💫💫💫💫💫💫 a wonderful morning safari, we were a group of 6 adults. As soon as we entered our guide Dulanka was very good, we were on a mission to find the jumps, and we succeeded! We found a jump sleeping on a tree, we saw elephants, buffalo, deer, many birds, before we left our second jump - which was lucky, she was hunting. Madhu was very knowledgeable about the wildlife. We highly recommend the Chapal tour and their breakfasts are really delicious. Thank you very much

Very nice safari! - Very nice safari. The park is absolutely beautiful and driver Dilanka and his partner were friendly and gave information about the different animals. We even spotted the leopard! During the 7 hour morning tour also a tasty breakfast was served in the park. I would definitely recommend the Dinuka safari team!

So much to see - I had a great safari with our driver Dilanka who was very patient and didn't hesitate to stop for some time, hoping to see a leopard (it was actually quite soothing, listening to the bird songs only). We were so lucky since the first animal we stopped for was a sloth bear and we spent more than 15 minutes observing a leopard drinking! We had a well-deserved break with lovely food as a group and even took some photos altogether in the Jeep. In total, we stayed 5 hours in the park with plenty to see!
Thank you again!!

Excellent Safari tour - excellent Safari From the moment we were picked up to the end of the safari, everything went smoothly. The entire experience was very well organized with great attention to time and detail. There were no delays, and the staff made sure to provide us with water, breaks, and information throughout the trip. We never felt rushed and had plenty of time to enjoy every sight. It was clear that this group prides itself on providing a high quality safari experience. The safari was very good and the driver was really kind and he was really keen to show us the animals very well. I am really happy with the trip.
