Very good river trip with a pleasant and knowledgeable guide. We spent 2.5 hours wandering the river and in the mangroves. The boat driver was nice to talk to and did his best to find some crocodiles for my 9 year old son.

Wonderful boat trip and visit to the protected turtle reserve. A must: the flora and fauna are truly stunning. We stopped earlier in the turtle reserve and, with an English-speaking tour guide, we were able to admire the young and older turtles who take care of it. It was very moving, especially because of the dedication of the staff. To be able to see the passion they have for this precious work! The boat ride lasted long enough, just right to see the much that nature has to offer. We saw birds, monkeys (coming close to eating), lizards, bats, etc. The driver and tour guide were very accurate. We also took distant photos of the Buddhist temple while we were on the boat. Last break and then final photo of the sunset and coconuts. I really recommend it.

We booked this experience last minute and it turned out to be one of the absolute highlights of our trip! From start to finish, the service was exceptional – we were picked up from our hotel and dropped back afterwards, which made everything so easy and stress-free. The organization was seamless, and our captain was fantastic – super friendly, incredibly knowledgeable, and had the eyes of an eagle! He effortlessly pointed out monkeys, crocodiles, bats, iguanas, water monitors, birds, eagles… we saw so much more than we ever expected. It was like being on a real-life nature documentary! To top it all off, we were treated to delicious, fresh coconut water – such a thoughtful touch. The two hours flew by in what felt like minutes. Truly an amazing, memorable experience – I couldn’t recommend it more

Great safari amongst the mangroves with a very knowledgeable guide who also took children to hold baby crocodiles and turtle sanctuary. If you want an unforgettable safari with lots of animals then look no further. The organiser was really helpful and tweaked the trip to include all that we asked for. Amazing trip.

What a thrill-packed day it was! We set off on a river safari, spotting a variety of fascinating water animals. Aya, our boatman, had an eagle eye that helped us see so much—while Vaghani and Gayan filled us in on interesting facts about the wildlife. It felt just like being on an episode of the Discovery Channel with their vast knowledge! And they take Instagram worthy photos as well that really impressed us. Highly recommend this tour!
