Visit Yala National Park

The Yala National Park is Sri Lanka’s most well-known wildlife park. It is famous for the variety of animals that can be seen, including elephants, crocodiles, sloth bears, eagles, but most famously leopards. It has the highest concentration of leopards in the world – over 200! Enjoy this spectacular array of wildlife from the comfort of the Wild Coast Tented Lodge, a beachfront safari lodge with delicious authentic food and cocoon-style tents. Choose from your own private pool, or enjoy the pool at the Ten Tusker’s Bar with a view of the emerald ocean, perhaps with a cocktail in hand. Dine at the rustic wooden dining pavilion where you can enjoy authentic food such as steamed red snapper and okra salad. Venture out into the wildlife with the expert guides that the lodge provides, who will always keep you feeling safe and comfortable – you can even enjoy a freshly prepared afternoon tea while out and about. There is no limit to your experiences!

We had an amazing holiday in Sri Lanka. All the hotels, transfers, trips and experiences arranged by True Travel were perfect and all the arrangements went seamlessly according to plan. Our guide and driver, Thusita, was a really nice man and so knowledgeable, going out of his way to make sure that we experienced many of the Sri Lankan foods and traditions as possible. I would recommend True Travel to anyone especially if you have not visited the country before.
