About this experience

Step into a private safari jeep and head into Minneriya National Park, one of Sri Lanka's most celebrated wildlife reserves. Over five hours, your English-speaking driver and tracker guide you past the Minneriya Tank — an ancient reservoir that draws the park's famous herds — where you can watch Asian elephants gather at the water's edge alongside spotted deer, water buffalo, and a wealth of birdlife. A bottle of water per person, hotel pick-up and drop-off, and all taxes are included.

This is a private tour departing from Polonnaruwa, so the jeep is exclusively yours. Guests must be at least seven years old to join. Food, drinks beyond the included water, and gratuities are not covered.
