How long should I spend at Udawalawe Elephant Transit Home?

Ravana Tour Specialist October 1, 2026

Plan for about 30 to 60 minutes at the Udawalawe Elephant Transit Home. This includes time to buy your ticket and watch the public feeding. Most people find this stop takes much less time than a jeep safari in a national park.

The feeding does not last the whole visit, so you usually do not need to stay for hours. Try to get there before the public viewing time. That way you have enough time to buy tickets and reach the viewing area.
