About this experience

Spend a night inside Wilpattu National Park — Sri Lanka's largest natural forest reserve — on this private camping safari. Two game drives take you through the park's signature villus (natural lakes), scanning for leopards, sloth bears, elephants, and crocodiles with an English-speaking guide beside you. Back at camp, a B.B.Q dinner is served with limited cool beer under the forest canopy.

Your stay includes full board meals, mattresses, pillows, and clean linen, so you travel light. Separate wash rooms are provided on site. Park entrance tickets and the guide are covered by Lakpura; hotel pickup and drop-off, gratuities, and personal expenses are not included. Minimum age is five. Ideal for wildlife and nature enthusiasts looking for an immersive overnight experience beyond the standard day safari.
