Private Wilpattu National Park Safari Drive Tour from Anuradhapura

The duration is enough. The route is fixed. It depends on luck to see what animals. We only saw wild buffalo, black bears, peacocks, sika deer, bee-eaters, jungle chickens, monkeys, etc.

The first 2 hours in the park were good. We were several vehicles together and some of the drivers in the other vehicles were good at sporting the animals. But then our vehicles remained on its own and our driver just sped through the park, barely noticing what was there.

Worst experience of my life! Driver didn’t show up, they rescheduled without my okay to a time which I couldn’t attend. Then they said they’d refund me and I get $11 out of $130 back. Stay clear of this scam!!! Apparently Klook customer service can’t refund me any more money as the operator has “significant operating expenses”. Complete and utter joke. Additionally, as my mate went alone on the rescheduled trip, the driver stopped for beers on the way and drank multiple lion strong (8% alcohol) while driving!!! All in all a very bad experience that anyone should stay clear off.

Picked up from the hotel on time. We arrived at the place even before the park opens. Due to delays, the organizations entered the park itself half an hour later than everyone else. We returned from the park before everyone else and even before 10 am, as stated. The last ones came in, the first ones came back. As a result, there were about 3 hours in the park itself. The first half of the trip was interesting. Next is a short break. And after a break, our jeep driver drove off in the direction from which the driving drivers said that there were no animals there. As a result, we spent the entire second half riding in places where we did not meet a single animal. Well, from the accompaniment of an English-speaking guide - the names of animals in English. I don’t know if they cooperate with one jeep driver or if we were “lucky”. Upon payment. The ad states an additional ticket up to $25 per person! As a result, it turned out that the park had changed prices a long time ago and for two people it turned out to be $ 83.5. They promised to correct the information, but 2 weeks later the information is still old.
