Is food expensive in Udawalawe?

In the rural area around Udawalawe, meals are usually easy on the wallet. Many small places serve authentic Sri Lankan rice and curry, and the prices stay low.

The higher-end eco-lodges and luxury glamping spots charge more, especially for meals that feel aimed at Western guests, like big buffet nights. If you are on your own, you can find cheap snacks nearby. Just outside the park’s main edges, people sell local vegetable rotis and hot street food.
