Temporary Travel Note (December 2025): Certain areas of Sri Lanka may be affected by the recent cyclone and flooding, which can limit accessibility. However, the country remains open to tourism.

Our team has explored Sri Lanka’s wild heart many times, building trusted local connections to make your safari seamless, thrilling, and unforgettable. With 26 National Parks to choose from, it can be confusing to know which to visit. That’s where our expertise comes in. We’ll help you pick the perfect park for your interests, whether spotting leopards in Yala, elephants in Udawalawe, or exploring lush rainforest habitats. Every itinerary is handpicked and personalised so that you can focus on the wildlife, not the logistics.

Your Jeep arrives, and guided by expert trackers, you speed off on your first safari. Within minutes, the thrill begins: an Elephant casually crossing the road, swaying its trunk in search of fresh vegetation. And this is just the start -you haven’t even entered the National Park yet.

Inside the park, dusty red tracks replace tarmac, and the sense of adventure heightens. A Sloth Bear appears nearby. A Crocodile basks quietly in a lagoon. Bright green and blue bee-eaters scatter across the path, while a majestic Fish Eagle watches from above.
Each sighting is a reminder of why Sri Lanka’s wildlife is world-famous, and why expert local guides are essential to uncover it all.
Round a bend, and a family of Elephants grazes close enough to almost touch. Baby elephants play and tumble with siblings - a truly magical moment.
Along the way, you’ll see Deer, Wild Boar, Water Buffalo and chattering monkeys. Every moment is carefully timed and guided, so you experience nature without missing a beat

Your tracker’s expertise pays off: the faint bark of a Barking Deer signals a Leopard nearby. In a patch of dappled shade, it appears, calmly observing before disappearing into dense vegetation.
Moments like this are unforgettable, and are why booking with an expert safari operator transforms a trip from ordinary to extraordinary

Important Safari Information
Please note that all wildlife encounters are in their natural habitats. While our expert guides maximise the chances of sightings, animals are wild, and there is no guarantee that you will see every species mentioned. Every safari is unique, and part of the adventure is the thrill of discovering wildlife in its natural environment.
Here’s a glimpse of some of the hotels we can arrange near Sri Lanka’s National Parks. Whether you prefer luxury safari hotels, family-friendly stays, or boutique properties, there are many more options to suit different tastes and comforts.
Something completely different awaits on Sri Lanka’s southern coast. Bordering the Yala National Park, twenty-eight uniquely designed, cocoon-like tented lodges are discretely nestled in their own jungle setting, a stone’s throw from the Indian Ocean. Kick back and simply soak in the surroundings and the lodge’s quirky interiors, or why not join one of our naturalists for a day safari adventure in Yala, where Elephants, Leopards, and an extraordinary array of wildlife are waiting to be discovered!

Set amongst lush greenery and sandy golden dunes. Chena huts makes the most off Sri Lankas tropical beaches and exotic wildlife. Fourteen luxury secluded cabins with their own plunge pools await you. Enjoy fine dining, in the heart of the wilderness, pamper yourself with one of the many personal spa treatments on offer. Sit back and unwind, with a long cool drink at the poolside bar which is concealed behind a gorgeous waterfall

If you like to get close to nature (we mean really close), Cinnamon Wild is the perfect stay for you. At the end of a dusty track, only five minutes from the entrance of Yala National Park on Sri Lanka’s south coast, Cinnamon Wild’s jungle chalets, safely raised above ground level, provide plenty of character and comfort. You may be lucky and see families of wild boar and elephants while the nearby lake is home to many crocodiles. Or be woken by the joyful thundering over your roof of a troop of monkeys. The buffet at Tuskers serves delicious local or European cuisine (you are recommended to call and ask for an escort during night time hours). Relax in the rooftop Peacock Bar, overlooking the jungle, ocean and lagoon by day, or marvel at the Milky Way by night.
