What you can expect

  • From Sigiriya/ Dambulla/ Kandalama/ Habarana: POLONNARUWA DAY TOUR WITH MINNERIYA NATIONAL PARK/ KAUDULLA NATIONAL PARK/ HURULU ECO PARK SAFARI IN THE AFTERNOON

    Discover the perfect blend of Sri Lanka’s ancient heritage and unforgettable wildlife with Thilini Jeep Safari on this immersive full-day experience. Your journey begins with a guided exploration of Polonnaruwa, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and once the thriving royal capital of Sri Lanka. Wander through remarkably preserved archaeological treasures including the majestic Royal Palace, the beautifully carved Gal Viharaya Buddha statues, age-old temples, and centuries-old stupas that reveal the island’s rich cultural legacy.

    Please note: As Polonnaruwa is a sacred area, visitors are kindly requested to wear modest clothing that covers shoulders and knees, in keeping with local customs.

    After your cultural tour, you may enjoy a delicious traditional Sri Lankan lunch at a nearby restaurant—an ideal opportunity to savour the authentic flavours of the region.

    In the afternoon, gear up for an exciting wildlife adventure as you embark on a 4x4 jeep safari with Thilini Jeep Safari. Depending on the season and elephant movement patterns, your safari will take place in Minneriya National Park, Kaudulla National Park, or Hurulu Eco Park—ensuring the best opportunity to witness wild elephants in their natural habitat. These parks are renowned for their impressive elephant gatherings, along with sightings of deer, monkeys, peacocks, and a variety of bird species.

    Your experienced safari driver will help spot wildlife and share valuable knowledge about the behaviour of the animals and the ecosystem of the dry-zone forests.

    This thoughtfully curated experience offers an unforgettable combination of cultural discovery and thrilling wildlife encounters—perfect for travellers seeking a comprehensive and authentic Sri Lankan adventure.
