Elephants and morning timing make this work. Hurulu Eco Park sits in the Hurulu Forest Reserve near Anuradhapura, and this safari is built around one simple idea: go when the animals are moving. You meet at the park gate (7:00…
Ancient statues, then elephant chaos. This day pairs Polonnaruwa ruins with an elephant safari so you get Sri Lanka’s big history and wild nature back-to-back. I especially like the small-group feel and the way your guide helps you make sense…
