      An amazing elephant experience
      We had the most wonderful time on the Elephant safari. Lakpura Leisure went above and beyond to help us celebrate our anniversary. Our guide Asela was very knowledgable and ensured that we had the best experience seeing the elephants. We couldn’t have asked for better, thank you :)

      Elephants galore!
      What a fantastic place to visit. We saw so many elephants, at least 40 and all were close enough that if you only have your phone for photos then it would be enough to get great shots. Whilst the elephants were the highlight we also saw buffaloes, jackal, mongoose, monitor lizards, black necked hare, kingfishers, bee eaters, peacocks (which are everywhere), spotted deer, crocodile, fruit bat, parakeets, minor birds, frogs, jungle fowl (the national bird), painted storks, pond herons and numerous other birds. We were picked up and dropped off at our accommodation and the safari jeep was ideal for a great view of the wildlife.

      Transfer to hotel
      Good transfer service. Driver waiting for me with signage making it easy to find him. Really appreciated having this service scheduled so I didn’t have to worry about a thing upon arrival.

      Amazing Private Safari
      Most amazing experience ever! It’s great to see the animals in their natural habitat! All the people working there were extremely friendly and they provided a lot of additional information about the animals! Also they pick you up from your hotel which is super convenient! Highly recommend ☺️

      Great tour
      This was a great little tour. Shirat gave me a little history lesson along with answering all my questions about Unesco & how restorations were happening. He took me to places I might not have found on my own & he runs a pleasant liitle tea shop too. A true local.

      Amazing views
      Slow train ride through beautiful countryside. Views amazing. Train was quite empty when I travelled maybe lucky. I was in 3rd class. Maybe go in second class for a more comfortable seat.

      A very enjoyable train ride.
      My husband and I had a lovely trip on the Amtrak train Blue Water from Flint, Michigan to Milwaukee - via Chicago. The ride was great, and smooth - we had Red Coat assistance in Chicago, helping my 80 year-old husband. The trains were very clean, modern, comfortable. The Chicago to Milwaukee is a commuter train, also very comfortable, clean, with professional staff assisting. And they were on time! there was assistance at the doors to the trains for those who needed it. My husband says that the best part of our trip to Michigan and Wisconsin was the train ride.

      Great, we saw a lot of elephants. Good communication before the journey. He picked us at the bus and drop off at the hotel (we paid for that).

      Great option if you’re staying in Ella!
      The safari was great! The transfer to and from Ella was seemless. Coordinator was very responsive via whatsapp. We got to see a leopard, elephants, buffalos, crocodiles, etc… the jeep driver knew very well where to go and made sure we did not miss that elusive Leopard when the chance presented itself! :)

      Wonderful experience, arranged with ease and good communication
      Amazing trip, I highly recommend Lakpura and Raveesha for all your Sri Lankan needs! It was amazing to be so close to the elephants. All the organisation was so smooth and a cake was even arranged for my brother. BIG RECOMMEND!

      Comfortabele safari with so many elephants
      Awesome elephant safari! Our driver was super kind and besides the elephants that were easy to find he pointed out numerous animals in the trees such as a crocodile, specials bird and monkeys. Also the jeep was the most comfortable jeep we have ever road in. Tip! Our driver contacted us the day before to suggest we move the time and location to be able to see more elephants. We highly recommend you follow up on his expertise and experience. We saw around 75 elephants that day!

      Great driver and great experience!
      Fantastic safari with our driver Asela! We saw so many animals - loads of elephants, some foxes, eagles, water buffalo and lots of other birds. The scenery is beautiful. Asela has great English and was very knowledgeable about the elephants and could answer all of our questions. Would definitely recommend!
