Summary: We had an unforgettable time on safari with our guide Prasanna. We saw leopards, bears, elephants, crocodiles, flamingos and a warthog!! We were so lucky to be able to spot all of these animals thanks to our guide who really knew his way around the park and put so much time and effort into us having the best experience possible. Couldn’t recommend Prasanna, Malith & the team enough.
