About this activity

This adventure tours is one of the standout things to do in Colombo, Sri Lanka. Rated 4.3/5 by 3 travellers, it combines the highlights below into a single, easy-to-book experience from €237 per person. Udawalawe National Park is the third most popular park in Sri Lanka. The primary attraction is a herd of approximately 250 elephants which are generally found near the Udawalawe reservoir.

This population of elephants can be sustained in the national park owing to its lush greenery and large bodies of water that are vital for the survival of such a large population of elephants. The elephant population is not the only attraction in the national park. 

It is also known to be home to a wide range of flora and fauna, some of which exist only in Sri Lanka. 

Primates found in the national park include toque macaques and tufted grey langurs. 

Rodents include Indian hare and about five species of wild rat and mouse, including the rare and endemic Ceylon spiny mouse. The endemic golden palm civet and the Asian palm civet also call the national park home. 

Udawalawa is a popular destination for those hoping to spot wild elephants. It is quite possibly the best place in Sri Lanka to see elephants throughout the year as there are a few hundred elephants within the park.

Best time to visit

Colombo is rewarding year-round, but spring and early autumn typically bring the most comfortable temperatures and thinner crowds than peak summer. Morning departures tend to be quieter and cooler; booking ahead is recommended in high season as popular adventure tours slots in Colombo sell out.
