Yala National Park Tours & Trips
Yala National Park in Sri Lanka is home to countless leopards, and they’re definitely the main draw! A safari here will show you majestic elephants, sloth bears, crocs, and birds beyond the leopards themselves. Safari here differs from Africa, with denser jungle, smaller parks, and fewer vehicles competing. Mix your safari with Sri Lanka’s beach and cultural triangle for an amazing time.

The tour was amazing. So much to do and see. What a beautiful country. We had the best time. We had Kanishka as our guide and he was so good. Always very polite, friendly and punctual. His knowledge is extensive and nothing was too difficult for him. Excellent communication skills. He is a great driver in sometimes trying conditions and his car was spotless and comfortable. Highly recommend Kanishka.

The tour ran smoothly from start to finish. Hotels were standard. Sightseeing was well organized. The guide was helpful. Yala safari and Bentota beach were highlights.
