Night Camping in Yala National Park
Join us for an unforgettable tenting safari starting from Tissamaharama city. Please arrive at our location by 10:30 AM, as we will depart for Yala National Park promptly at 11:00 AM. You can securely park your vehicle with us for the night.
We expect to reach the ticket counter by 11:40 AM. Once we’ve obtained our tickets, we will head straight to our camping site. Note that from 12 noon to 2 PM, vehicle movement within the park is typically restricted to allow wildlife to roam freely. However, since we’re heading directly to the campsite, we will be permitted to drive straight there. For safety, we will have two jeeps, ensuring immediate access to another vehicle in case of an emergency. Additionally, this allows us to transport all the necessary camping gear, cooking equipment, and our chef for the day.
We anticipate arriving at the tenting site by 1:00 PM, where you’ll be joined by a Wildlife Department officer and a professional animal guide. The first thing we’ll do upon arrival is prepare a hot beverage for you—just let us know if you prefer coffee! We’ll set off on our first safari at 2:00 PM, which also provides you with time to enjoy lunch if you’ve brought anything along. While you’re out exploring, our chef and staff will prepare your tent and dinner by the bonfire.
First Safari in Yala National Park
This safari offers you the unique opportunity to immerse yourself in nature and wildlife without the usual crowds. Enjoy spotting leopards, elephants, bears, as well as a variety of birds, crocodiles, deer, and peacocks—there’s so much to see!
After an exhilarating day, our first safari will conclude at 6:00 PM. When you return to the campsite, your BBQ dinner will be ready. A crystal-clear stream flows nearby, and with permission from your wildlife officer, you may take a refreshing dip. Imagine a night spent in this vibrant forest, home to the highest density of leopards in the world! Sharing a BBQ dinner around a bonfire on traditional Sri Lankan mats will create memories to last a lifetime. We can also prepare a vegetarian meal if requested in advance.
As we are in tune with the rhythms of nature and to prepare for an early morning, we’ll settle down for the night around 9:00 PM.
Early Morning Safari
Our early morning safari will begin at 6:00 AM. Departing promptly, you’ll experience the park’s pristine beauty in peace for about an hour before other vehicles arrive. We’ll serve you a warm drink and a biscuit at 5:45 AM to kickstart your day. After your morning adventure, we’ll return to the campsite by 8:30 AM for a freshly prepared Sri Lankan breakfast of coconut roti, coconut sambol, and fish curry—a delightful way to fuel your day!
After breakfast, we’ll quickly pack up our tents and gear and head to the park entrance by noon. You’ll have another 2 to 3 hours to explore Yala National Park, where you’ll have a great chance of spotting more leopards with us!
We’ll drop off our wildlife guide at the entrance and bid you farewell at your vehicles around 12:40 PM.
Until our next adventure together, we wish you safe travels and cherished memories!
