Yala Luxury Safari Camping Experience

  • At dusk, you can easily experience the excitement of the jungle that cocoons the camp.
  • Watch for roaming elephants crossing the trail as the area begins to darken under the falling night sky.
  • Hear the bark of the deer as the night thickens, ever alert to the nocturnal hunt of the leopard.
  • And, of course, listen to the soothing sound of the constant Night Jar, living up to its other name, the "Marble Dropper."
  • The secure, large 16 x 10 feet tents and the comfortable bedding and amenities can easily make you forget you are in the wilderness.
  • But if the cries of the wild at night remind you where you are, you can comfort yourself in the company of seasoned staff who know the territory like the backs of their hands.
  • You can go on a safari to Yala National Park in safari-ready jeeps.
  • Our well-trained and experienced jeep drivers will take you through the trails of big game - the elephant, leopard, and ever-elusive sloth bear.
  • If birdwatching is your passion, then there's Bundala National Park, where an array of birds - local, endemic, and migratory - can be found.
