Let the safari come to you at Explorer by Eco Team - Maduru Oya

Waking up to an Elephant trumpeting outside your front door has to be one of the most unique and surprising ways to be roused from sleep, but that’s quite the norm at the Explorer by Eco Team’s private tented safari camp in Maduru Oya National Park. Set up on the banks of the Maduru Oya reservoir and featuring a private naturalist, chef, and camp staff, you get an adventurous camping experience coupled with all the creature comforts. Outside your tent, you will quickly be accustomed to sights of wandering elephant herds, a variety of avifauna flitting about and quite a few of the other curious denizens of the Park wandering around. When you do eventually set off on a game drive, you will encounter the rest of the usual suspects of Sri Lanka’s National Parks - Leopards, Sloth Bears, Sambar, Jackals, Porcupines and more. With historical structures dating back over 3,000 years, an indigenous tribe calling it home for millennia longer and an isolated fishing village to supply you with delicious fresh fish, the Park is more than just a destination for safaris -  it is an immersive experience of history, culture and nature unlike any other.
