Frequently asked questions

The largest national park in Sri Lanka is Wilpattu and significantly less busy than Yala. This will allow having a more intimate and peaceful safari. Although Yala has a bigger concentration of leopards, Wilpattu has very distinct scenery of natural lakes (willus) and is the best place to see sloth bears and leopards without the insane traffic congestion of the jeeps.

The Ravana Mega Zipline is of strict international standards in safety. Nevertheless, it has limitations:

  • Weight Limit: These range typically between 30kg and 110kg.
  • Height Limit: Minimum 122cm.
  • Health: Pregnancy: Contraindicated, heart disease/back problems.

Udawattekele is a rain forest setting. We recommend wearing:

  • Shoes: Hiking Shoes or Sneakers (no flip-flops).
  • Clothing: Long trousers to keep off scratches and insects (leeches are frequent in rainy weather).
  • Clothes: Insect repellant.

The package costs are normally inclusive of the transport to the park and accommodation in order to offer you some leeway. The real Jeep hire and Park Entrance Fees will generally be paid to the gate. This will enable you to decide whether you want half-day or full-day safari based on the energy and the amount of money you have on the day.

Yes! It is in the high tea country and can get very cold, particularly at night (as low as 10-15C) unlike the humid coastal or dry heat of Wilpattu. Light jacket, sweater, or hoodie: This is highly recommendable to pack when coming here in the evening.
