An Unforgettable Kaudulla Safari with Tharidu & Minneriya Wild Tours!
Our safari experience with Minneriya Wild Tours was absolutely phenomenal, and a huge part of that was thanks to our incredible driver and guide, Tharidu.
Originally, we had planned to visit Minneriya National Park, but after messaging the company on WhatsApp, they gave me honest and helpful advice about where the elephants were currently gathering. Based on their local knowledge, we decided to go to Kaudulla instead — and it was 100% the right call. The communication before the tour was smooth, friendly, and informative, and I really
appreciated their transparency and willingness to help me make the best decision.
From the moment we were picked up, Tharidu made us feel welcome, safe, and excited for the journey ahead. His deep knowledge of the park, and the animals added so much more to the experience than we expected.
What set this tour apart was how respectful and responsible Tharidu was around the wildlife. He never rushed, always kept a respectful distance, and gave us plenty of time to observe and take photos without disturbing the animals.
The jeep was comfortable and well-maintained, and the entire tour felt very well-organised and personal. Everything ran on time, and the booking process was super easy thanks to the great communication over WhatsApp.
If you’re planning a safari in the area, look no further than Minneriya Wild Tours and ask for Tharidu. His passion, professionalism, and warm personality made this one of the highlights of our trip to Sri Lanka. We’ll never forget the moment we saw all the elephants together – it was absolutely magical.
Highly recommend!
