The experience

What you'll do

While Yala's jeeps queue bumper to bumper, Maduru Oya stays wonderfully empty. This is one of Sri Lanka's least-visited national parks — a landscape of reservoirs, grasslands and rocky outcrops where elephants come down to drink and endemic birds outnumber tourists hundreds to one. Your safari jeep, guide and binoculars are arranged; you just watch.

What's included

  • Safari jeep with experienced guide
  • Binoculars
  • 2 organic energy drinks, 2L water per person, snack, cool box

What to bring

  • Sunscreen
  • Hat
  • Camera
  • Best before 2pm — park closes at 6pm
