UDAWALAWE NATIONAL PARK - THE ELEPHANT'S PARADISE | VLOG #30

A jeep safari in Udawalaweh National Park couldn't miss after our last visit to the nearby Yala National Park. Udawalaweh is supposed to be the park to get up close with elephants and we are super excited to see if that will happen! Okay, one little spoiler: we got REALLY close!

    Nice VLOG. Thanks for visiting Sri Lanka. For the viewers: If you want to see Elephants in Sri Lanka, the best place is Minneriya National park. You would definitely see at least 150 Elephants there. Second is UDAWALAWE. I never recommend Yala for anything. It used to be the best place to see the Animals. But its management has ruined the place. You would hardly see animals there now. Just do not waste your money there.

    +HUGO & NOEMIE - WE WANDER ASIA oh nice!! Do visit Kerala, Rajasthan and Ladakh to see real India.. Taj Mahal can be done in a day. don't waste too much time there. N as I can see from ur video that you r interested in wildlife. Don't miss Safari in Ranthambore, Rajasthan or Periyar, Kerala.
