National Park Jeep safari: According to the details I mention above, Udawalawe National Park jeep
safari is one of the most popular activities among tourists who visit Sri
Lanka. There are two main time periods to go on a jeep safari, but also travelers can customize at your choice. As a well experienced tour company in
Sri Lanka we recommend our guests to travel early morning jeep safari like 5.30
am to 9.00 am time and the afternoon jeep safari as 2.30 pm to 6.00 pm. Because
it would be a valuable opportunity to observe unique and amazing wild animals
in their natural habitats.
