Safari guide, Kalum, has been
organising tours to Minneriya National
Park for over 15 years and possesses a
great understanding of the behaviour and
routines of the elephants in the national
park. He suggested that we would have a
better experience by having our tour in
the morning when there are fewer cars
and more private encounters with the
elephants, rather than opting for the
afternoon tour, which might have allow us
to see more elephants but also a lot more
cars, clearly spoiling our experience. We
skeptical about making
this
were
decision, but we chose to trust Kalum's
expertise and experience. Right from the
start, our guide took a different direction
than all the other safari vehicles, resulting
in us having private, close encounters
with the elephants. Kalum did his best to
position his vehicle in a way that allowed
