Why This Route Is Unmissable

• Coast to country, in one go: Pickup at your Tangalle/Hiriketiya/Mirissa/Galle hotel
• Wildlife at its best: 3‑hour open‑jeep safari with expert commentary

• No back‑tracking, no fuss: One‑way transfer saves time and adds adventure
• Comfort & convenience: Air‑conditioned transfer plus rugged safari vehicle

Highlights
Your driver will collect you early from the southern beaches, then head straight for Yala. On arrival, meet your local guide and climb aboard an open‑top Toyota Hilux (or similar) for prime wildlife viewing—expect to see leopards, elephants, sloth bears, monkeys, crocodiles and a rainbow of birdlife as the park awakens. After the safari, relax in our air‑conditioned shuttle as you climb the winding roads to Ella, with stops for iconic photo‑ops at tea estates and the famous Nine Arch Bridge.
