Cultural Triangle Elephant Safari

Choose the park with the best seasonal conditions for an afternoon among wild elephant herds.

Minneriya and Kaudulla are close neighbours, but conditions change with the season. Emil can help select the park offering the better elephant activity on your travel date. An afternoon safari gives the best chance to see herds moving through grassland and along the reservoir edge.
