Review of Bentota River Safari by BTM, a private two-hour mangrove cruise with birdwatching, monkeys, crocodiles, pickup, and guides.

Small crocodile, varans, frogs and monkeys (to which we even gave some nuts) were all part of the safari. The driver had fresh pineapple and coconuts for us too, which was very nice of him!”
