Great day, experienced helpful guide
Was an amazing trip. The driver was an excellent driver, Dilan was an excellent narrator and guide. He knew about all the animals and was alert to our needs. We saw elephants, crocodiles, mongooses, spotted deer, water buffalo, and dozens of type birds super colorful small ones to large eagles in a nest with babies. Was a good driver to and from the safari location and answered every question we had. Would highly reccommend.

Dreams come true...
Whole trip was planned perfectly and according to our wishes. The Guide and the Jeep Driver were so experienced and proffesional, a real nature lovers. We took so many photos, spotted more than 30 elephants, no to mention other species as jackals, buffalos, crocodiles and so many birds. The trip was both adventurous and comfortable plus I was feeling super safe. This was my first time in Sri Lanka and when I will be back I am choosing the same company.

FANTASTIC tour and tour guide!
BOOK THIS TOUR WITH THIS COMPANY!!! I found this tour on tripadvisor and saw the great reviews, but was still blown away by how wonderful an experience it was. The tour guide Mindika, picked me up from my Colombo hotel and we drove the 4 hours to Udawalawe. He gave me SO much information about things we were passing, things in Sri Lanka, and about the various animals we were going to see on the safari. Our safari driver, Dharme, was also amazing and has eagle eyes to find and point out even the smallest lizard on the safari path. We were able to see a wide array of animals from elephants- males, females, and babies, crocodiles, water buffalo, birds, monkeys, lizards, and even a usually hard to see jackal family. Mindika was fabulous during the safari telling me so much information about the different animals and behaviors we were seeing. Following the tour we were able to stop at the Elephant Transit Home near Udawalawe which was a personal request that Mindika was gracious enough to accommodate. BOOK WITH THIS COMPANY. 7 star service, the nicest guide in Sri Lanka, fully certified, so accommodating, and will be a memory of a lifetime!

Why this scores 63
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
All Inclusive Udawalawe National Park Safari Day Tour from Colombo and Negombo: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Negombo.
How much does All Inclusive Udawalawe National Park Safari Day Tour from Colombo and Negombo cost?
+
Prices start at $365 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Negombo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does All Inclusive Udawalawe National Park Safari Day Tour from Colombo and Negombo take?
+
Plan for about 12 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Negombo is not rushed.
Is All Inclusive Udawalawe National Park Safari Day Tour from Colombo and Negombo worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 11 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Negombo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule All Inclusive Udawalawe National Park Safari Day Tour from Colombo and Negombo?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is All Inclusive Udawalawe National Park Safari Day Tour from Colombo and Negombo suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 12-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book All Inclusive Udawalawe National Park Safari Day Tour from Colombo and Negombo?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Negombo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Negombo and add a light layer if any part of the 12-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does All Inclusive Udawalawe National Park Safari Day Tour from Colombo and Negombo start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Negombo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Negombo?
+
On Outty we rank every Negombo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Car & Driver for 07 Days Tour In Sri Lanka, Most Popular Round Tour in Sri Lanka (10 Days), Highly recommended multi day tour in Sri Lanka. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Negombo?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Negombo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
