          Elephants all over
          We did Udawalawe and not Yala, because our host told us, that it is very nice too and not too overcrowded - he was right! We had a great afternoon and saw many animals, especially elephants! It was a great experience!

          Fort ramble
          Fort is worth a visit for the history and architecture . A few coffee shops - coffee is average only . But the walk around is interesting

          Must do half day safari from Tangalle
          Shehan was a great tour operator. He made things easy in that he organises everything, he was flexible when we kept changing our minds, and he was very knowledgeable on the safari. And we saw soooo many animals on the safari it was amazing and definitely worth it.

          Dont go if you love animals.
          Shehan is a funny guy with good english skills. But he doesnt Tell you much Informations while the safari. You have to ask everything. The saddest thing is, that they are not respecting the little animals there. For example they push the little ones with the car from the street and scare them, because they just focussed to show us a leopard or elefants. On the other hand , they are driving 4 hours the same roads up and down, which is realy boring. The male elefant is so annoyed there from the jeeps that he attacted them and broke his tusk. They even blocked the way with their jeeps and disturb the elefant family to go their way......

          Skilled, flexible, knowledgable guide
          I used the services of Shehan C Tours for a one-day tour of attractions around Tangalle. Since it was a very positive experience, I asked to organize a trip from Tangalle to Ella with a safari in Udawalawe National Park on the way. Everything went great. Shehan is a professional guide, has a lot of knowledge and is very attentive to the client and flexible in the organization, and on top of that he is a very nice person. During these two days, I learned a lot about the history of the places visited, local culture and nature. It was two great days, I honestly recommend this guide.

          Fantastic shaw in Yala
          We had the best time ever. Shehan and his driver of safari jeep were so good with pointing out the animals and showing us everything. We were the 1st Jeep going into the park and we drove looking for the Leopard pretty much by our selfs. And we were very lucky to see the illusive Leopard four or five times. Always one if the first jeeps where he might appear. Twice a leopard passed our jeep just a meter away. amazing! We also had an Elephant passing the jeep. Except for the bear we saw everything you can in a Safari 👍🏼😊 And shehan is very well connected. Also a plus: food was good and the drive, also it can get bumpy his driver drove very safely and slowly when needed. Thank you so much. Can only recommend doing a safari with Shehan c Tours .

          The best safari in sri Lanka
          We had an excellent experience with guide Shehan! Very professional, helpful, knowledgeable about the animals and great humour. Everything was perfect. He has eagle eyes to find animals that we couldn’t find. We highly recommended safari with shehan . We hope to be back again one day! Thank you .

          Loved it!
          Shehan optimized the itinerary based on our hotel location and our preferences. We got a real private tour experience. Randeepa is a great guide - local and knowledgeable.
