About this experience
Spend one night deep inside Yala National Park, Sri Lanka's second-largest forest reserve and home to one of the highest densities of leopards anywhere. This private two-day experience includes two safari sessions through the park's freshwater and marine wetlands and forested wilderness along the southern Hambantota-Yala coastline, with a knowledgeable guide pointing out elephants, axis deer, sambhur, and birdlife alongside the chance to spot a leopard.
Back at camp, settle into a Coleman tent fitted with mattresses, pillows, and clean linen, with separate washrooms for comfort. A three-course barbecue dinner with limited cold beer is served around the campfire, and full-board meals are included throughout. Park entrance tickets and tour guide are covered; hotel pickup, drop-off, and gratuities are not — arrange your own transfer to the park entrance.

It has more drawbacks than advantages
If you are in the area, of course you have to visit, but the truth is that the experience is nothing to write home about. The paths that the jeeps can take are quite few, so what you will see most are jeeps, not animals.…

Keep your expectations lower and you may be surprised.
I had an afternoon safari in Block 5 and a morning safari in Block 1. In Block 5, there wasn't much going on, with a lot of the time spent on jeep convergences on possible leopard activity, all of which were false alarm…
