DO NOT book, DO NOT waste your time ⚠️🚨

TAMARA_P, Feb 2026
I will never trust AJITH DIAMOND TOURS again. We have lost money, excitement and our time -Until the afternoon before the safari and after sending several messages, we did not receive any information about the collection and completion. -The safari is sponsored as “7 hours long” but truly in the park you are only 3 hours. -You do not do the safari in block 1 (famous for its 50-60 leopards), you do it in block 5 (16 leopards). -The driver only spoke Sinhalese and we were unlucky that the jeep broke down arriving at the park, so we waited more than an hour for another jeep to come so that the contracted activity could begin. -That lost time (an hour and a half) that we were waiting for a new vehicle, we did not recover it, nor did they extend our safari. And return to our hotel, in a tuctuc.
