About This Safari
The Experience
Discover the wildlife and beautiful scenery of Yala National Park in Sri Lanka with a 6-hour morning or evening safari. Yala is famous worldwide for having the highest density of leopards of any national park on Earth and is home to elephants, crocodiles, sloth bears, and many colourful birds. This safari is perfect for families, photographers, and nature lovers looking for a memorable and immersive wildlife adventure in one of Asia's most biodiverse destinations.
Choose a morning safari to enjoy cooler temperatures and highly active wildlife, or opt for an evening safari to capture animals bathed in the golden hour light. The tour includes scenic stops at Patanagalla Beach and Manik River, offering excellent opportunities for photography, short rests, and soaking in the stunning natural beauty of Yala. Morning safaris may also include an optional picnic breakfast, adding an extra layer of delight to your adventure.
Travel in a private 4×4 Toyota Hilux jeep for comfort, safety, and flexibility, accommodating up to seven passengers for an intimate group experience. An experienced English-speaking driver-guide will accompany you throughout, providing fascinating insights into animal behaviour, park ecosystems, and ongoing conservation efforts. The package includes park entrance and service fees, VAT, and hotel pickup and drop-off from selected areas including Yala, Tissamaharama, Kirinda, Kataragama, Weerawila, and Hambantota. Meals beyond the optional breakfast and tips are not included. Guests are advised to wear lightweight, neutral-coloured clothing and to bring water, binoculars, a camera, and sun protection.
