Martin (verified owner) –
We decided to do a full day trip including Polonnaruwa and Mineriya National park (due to the conditions we eventualy visited different Eco Park). The communication was very profesional from the beginning, but the real fun started at the day of the trip. We got the best guide Kumara we could wished for. He was super friendly, nice and helpfull – he did everything what we asked for. This guy even cut the pineapple for us! Real hero! But his profesionality just showed at the time during the safari, he really gave us all the time he could, showed us different animals that were not easy to spot. What was real difference from many of the other guides was that he really cares about behaviour during the safari. He was very respectfull to the many elephants we saw and at the same time he made sure we have the best view possible. His patiance paid off, as the family of elephants with small baby just walked right in front of our jeep. Kumara thank you for this day, it will be definitely one to remember!
