What is the Yala safari like?

Wildlife sightings can never be guaranteed. What we can do is arrange a private jeep and an experienced safari driver for the best possible experience.

The ride starts from Tissamaharama, about two hours from your south-coast hotel, and you sleep nearby, because driving back would add another two hours. The jeep is private and open, so the pace is yours. At a waterhole your driver turns off the engine, and you wait and watch.

The park fee and the jeep are paid before you arrive, so nothing is added at the gate.
