Safari Tentalow in Puttalam District

"Amazing stay at Mahoora Tented Safari Camp Wilpattu The staff was so lovely, very enthusiastic about the experience and very professional. Our dinner was amazing, eating by candlelight, on linen tablecloths, under the stars with fire-flies blinking in the forest around us. Fantastic tent facilities - european toilets, basins and shower in each tent.. Comfortable beds and a quiet night's sleep. The safaris were great - we had a knowledgeable driver and Wilpattu NP is close by and very...

Once that issue was cleared, we truely enjoyed our stay… the Mahoora tent is amazing, in a stunning environment. Service is great, candle dinner is amazing… and the safari organization was perfect."

There is no A/C and it can get quite hot in the tent. We had a wonderful candle lit dinner by the chef who also lit us a fire which was beautiful under the stars. Some holes in the tent need to be fixed due to mosquitos. "

"Great safari experience with personalized service, including nature loving, photographer owner riding along with us and providing wealth of info on local flora and fauna. Food was excellent, as were drinks and socializing with other guests in the evening. Tents and beds were comfortable too. Wilpatu national park is a world apart from the other overcrowded parks in Sri Lanka. Go if you can!"
