It was absolutely fantastic! Few days we were in Uduwalawa National Park which was also beautiful and we saw like 5 elephants. But this trip to Wasgamuwa was completely different level! We saw around 40 elephants including babies and they were so close to us we could touch them (of course we didn't :).

We did the morning safari private tour. We saw all the big animals and a lot of bird life. The guide and driver were very nice and we ended up doing more than an hour longer than advertised without asking which was very nice of them. They never made the experience feel rushed and they really did try very hard to see as much as possible. The only down side was the guide had very limited English outside of animal ident so trying to extract any extra information was very hard. We still finished the tour happy we did it and it is good value for money.

We enjoyed our afternoon in the park. Elephants were plentiful (we saw around 40), many beautiful birds, sambar, crocodile, mongoose, monitors, and many other animals. Our guide was very knowledgeable and had a clear passion for his job and the animals. Definitely go with these guys!
