Where are you staying?
We collect from all over the south. Tell us where you’re based and we’ll show you the trips that actually work from there.
New · park tickets included
Skip the ticket queue at Yala
Every other jeep queues in the dark at 4.30am to buy a park permit — the hour the leopards are moving. We buy yours the day before, so you drive straight to the entrance and start looking.
- Entrance ticket already bought
- Nothing to pay at the gate
- Breakfast & hotel pickup included
Ella & the hill country
Staying in Ella?
Don’t drive back.
Wherever you're headed next — the south coast, Arugam Bay, or back to your same room in Ella — we put a guided game drive in the middle of the journey. Luggage carried, hotel to hotel, one day.
Safari + transfer
Coming the other way,
or doing two parks
The same idea, pointed the opposite direction. Start on the south coast or in Arugam Bay, take a game drive on the way, and finish the day at your next hotel — often up in Ella.

- Born and raised on the edge of Yala — this is our backyard
- Every guide is licensed by the Department of Wildlife
- Well-maintained 4×4 jeeps with genuine open views
- Direct booking means honest prices, no middlemen

We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Dilan as our guide at Yala National Park! From start to finish, he was exceptional. His knowledge of the park, wildlife and animal behaviour was impressive, and his passion for what he does really shone through. Dilan went above and beyond to make sure we had a memorable experience, and the highlight was undoubtedly spotting a magnificent leopard! His patience, keen eye and understanding of the park made all the difference. He was professional, friendly, attentive and genuinely committed to giving us the best possible safari experience. We couldn't have asked for a better guide. If you're planning a visit to Yala National Park, we would highly recommend requesting Dilan. He helped make our experience truly unforgettable. Thank you, Dilan, for such a wonderful day!
Wir hatten eine tolle Safari am Morgen gehabt. Unser Fahrer Posthum hat uns viel zu den Tieren erzählt. Es war eine tolle Erfahrung!
Wir würden die Safari definitiv wieder machen. Unser Fahrer wusste immer wo er hin muss & kannte sich gut aus. Dadurch konnten wir mehrere Leoparden, Elefanten, Krokodile & viele weitere Tiere sehen.
