This is a trip to " RIDIYAGAMA SAFARI PARK " we went with my family. This is kind of adventure experience that i got in my life. This Safari park located in Hambantotha. In Sri Lanka first time ever to get a this kind of a experience. In this safari park animals lived in freely and we were taken a round trip from their buses. Also we can go near to the animals but we are not allowed to get off from the buses.

You can find the some lovely pictures i have taken.

This safari looks very impressive. For anyone who loves adventures in the wild and animals, I advise you to visit the African Bush Camps website and learn more about African safari tours. You will find comfortable stylish camps with delicious food and of course daily walks in the wild places of Botswana and you can even visit the only largest Victoria Falls in the world. So hurry up and book your tour.
