点评:From the very beginning, when I messaged this safari company they were kind and accommodating. I asked sooo many questions (literally have a chain of like 35 emails) and they stayed patient and polite and answered anything I asked. They were kind enough to give us a small deal for the full day safari as well.
Our guide, Tharindu, was also very kind. He knew everything on sight and told us the names, he also carries around information books and can show you the various birds and lizards you see. We had breakfast and lunch all packed and sorted for us, and it lovely. We ate breakfast by a beautiful lake - by lunch time we had a rain storm and Tharindu worked hard to keep us dry and fed.
Unfortunately the day we went there were 0 leopard sightings in the whole park. I believe due to the weather - leopards hate getting wet. But a plus side of this is that sloth bears love the cooler weather and we went on to see one right near the end of the day!
We saw lots of other things too - crocodiles, monkeys, mongoose, a cobra, 5 elephants, tortoise, eagles, storks, lots of peacocks, kingfisher, jackals, countless deer, a monitor lizard and lots of other birds and reptiles as we drove around. Thardinu kept his eyes peeled, and drove like mad (which we found super fun!) whenever he got an important sighting call! Binoculars are provided and come in very handy!
The cherry on top - the company will send you the pictures the drivers take during the day on their super good camera with a MASSIVE lens.
I would go with this company again in a heartbeat - these are wild animals you don’t always see everything, but we were very happy with what we did see.
翻译:从一开始,当我联系这家旅行社时,他们就非常友善热情。我问了好多问题(真的有35封邮件的记录),他们始终耐心礼貌地解答了我所有的问题。他们还很慷慨地给了我们全天游猎的优惠。
我们的向导塔林杜也非常好。他对所有动物都了如指掌,能告诉我们它们的名字。他还会随身携带信息手册,并能指出我们看到的各种鸟类和蜥蜴。早餐和午餐都提前准备好了,非常美味。我们在一个美丽的湖边享用了早餐——到了午餐时间,突然下起了暴雨,塔林杜尽心尽力地让我们保持干爽,并保证我们吃饱喝足。
可惜的是,我们去的那天,整个公园里一只豹子都没看到。我想可能是因为天气的原因——豹子不喜欢淋雨。不过,好处是懒熊喜欢凉爽的天气,我们在当天快结束的时候看到了一只懒熊!我们还看到了许多其他动物——鳄鱼、猴子、獴、眼镜蛇、5头大象、乌龟、老鹰、鹳、许多孔雀、翠鸟、豺狼、数不清的鹿、一只巨蜥,以及许多其他鸟类和爬行动物。我们一路驱车环游,一路目不暇接。司机塔迪努时刻保持警惕,一旦接到重要的目击报告,就飞速赶往现场(我们觉得这超级刺激!)。公司提供的双筒望远镜非常实用!
更棒的是,公司还会把司机用配备超大镜头的顶级相机拍摄的照片发送给你。
我会毫不犹豫地再次选择这家公司——毕竟是野生动物,你不可能每次都看到所有种类,但我们对所看到的已经非常满意了。
