Tigers, Elephants and big game had obviously taken the day off. We saw Peter Rabbit and his family, a tortoise breaking the land speed record, monkeys, spotted deer, a land monitor and a crocodile that was so far away that it could have been just a fallen tree. The road was bumpy and perhaps our squeaking vehicle frightened the animals away. We actually saw more animals - a whole herd of elephants, while driving from point to point.

This was an absolutely exciting excursion we tried in Dambulla in 2017. We were safely taken care of until we landed and were treated with a lovely round of champagne. The ride was totally fun, you could get a really spectacular view of the area to a very large extent. It was really fun to move through the mist and wind. The safety measure were high and the team was well experienced. A team would follow the balloon throughout on a jeep and arrive at the destination to help with the landing.

What an experience!!, we arrived just as the elephants appeared from the jungle and watched 5 large groups go to the water. The Jeep driver got us into the perfect place for photographs, responding quickly when a female decided we'd got too close. So beautiful to watch the interaction of the family units as they got to the water.
