    We had an amazing time! We went inearly June on a Monday, and basically had the whole park to ourselves. We saw other jeeps 2 times throughout the whole day. We saw soany animals, probably about 50 or more elephants in about 7 or 8 herds including some babies and young ones. We also saw crocodiles, buffalo, jackal, monkeys, hundreds of birds, and spotted deer herds. Roshan our driver said that we'd been very lucky. He gave us the opportunity of going to the eco Park nearby as he could guarantee lots of elephants there and the entrance fee is much less (about 5000 rupees vs just under 22000) but we're glad we stuck with the national park as it is 100% amazing. Our ticket from Viator said that we had to swap the voucher they sent for a proper ticket in Sigiriya but I think that is incorrect. We never did it and it wasn't mentioned. We had the phone number that we booked with attached to WhatsApp and Roshan contacted us there and was very good with communication. I couldn't be happier with how good a guide he was. He picked us up from our hotel with cold drinks and took care of everything he very calmly knew what to do when an elephant charged at our car and it ended up just being extra fun and excitement. As mentioned entrance to the park is not included in the ticket but we were aware of that and it wasn't an issue. Just make sure you have enough cash. We did the 6 hour tour and I'm not sure you'd need more than that. All in all it was an amazing experience and I highly recommend it to anyone who asks.
