About this experience
Spend a night inside Wilpattu National Park — Sri Lanka's largest and oldest national park — on this private camping safari. Two three-hour game drives take you through the park's signature villus (natural sand-lined watering holes), scanning for leopards, sloth bears, elephants, mugger crocodiles, Indian pythons, and painted storks with an experienced, English-speaking guide beside you. Back at camp, a three-course B.B.Q dinner is served with limited cool beer under the forest canopy.
Your stay is fully equipped: standard Coleman tents, mattresses, pillows, and clean linen are all provided, along with full board meals and separate wash rooms on site. Park entrance tickets and the guide are covered; hotel pickup and drop-off, gratuities, and personal expenses are not included. Minimum age is five.

Day safari too long
We had booked a day safari. But that was too long for us and the children and we drove back to the accommodation early in the early afternoon.

But the ticketing felt like a scam. We were charged full foreigner rat…
