super safari - 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 “A Magical Day in the Wild!” What an incredible day! This safari experience was everything we hoped for and more. The service was excellent right from the beginning — great communication before the trip, and the driver arrived right on time for pick-up. The jeep was very clean, comfortable, and perfect for viewing and photographing wildlife. Our guide was friendly, patient, and had a great eye for spotting animals. We saw elephants up close, crocodiles near the water, lots of exotic birds, and most exciting of all — a leopard slowly walking across the road just a few meters in front of us! It felt like something out of a documentary. What we really appreciated was the relaxed pace. We were never rushed, and our guide made sure we had time to really enjoy the experience. It was clear they respect the animals and the environment. If you’re visiting Yala, don’t miss the chance to do a safari like this. It was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Sri Lanka

best tissa safari - 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 “Amazing Morning Safari – Worth Every Moment!” We booked the early morning safari and it was absolutely incredible. The pick-up was prompt and the ride to the park was smooth. Our guide was warm, professional, and clearly passionate about wildlife. He explained a lot about the animals and the park’s ecosystem, which made the whole experience even more meaningful. The jeep was in excellent condition and allowed for clear views in every direction. We were lucky enough to see a wide variety of animals—peacocks dancing, elephants walking through the bush, a group of crocodiles sunbathing, and best of all, a leopard resting on a rock! What stood out most was how calm and respectful our driver was compared to others. He avoided crowding the animals and gave us time to truly enjoy the sightings. It was peaceful, exciting, and so well run. If you’re planning a Yala safari, don’t hesitate—this service is reliable, experienced, and offers an unforgettable journey into the wild

Great tracking skills, Best safari - 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 “Well-Organized and Truly Wild!” Our Yala safari exceeded all expectations. The booking process was simple and communication was excellent leading up to the trip. On the day of the safari, the driver arrived right on time and took us to the park in a very comfortable, well-maintained jeep. The guide was knowledgeable and had a deep respect for the wildlife. He shared interesting facts throughout the journey and was very patient, never rushing us. We spotted a variety of animals including monkeys, buffalo, deer, and even a pair of leopards relaxing near a waterhole—an unforgettable sight! What we really appreciated was how calm and responsible the driver was, avoiding crowded spots and choosing quieter routes where we could truly enjoy nature. It felt like a private, immersive experience rather than a typical tourist activity. If you’re visiting Yala, this is the way to do it. Professional, passionate, and deeply connected to the beauty of the park

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Half-Day Safari Experience in Yala - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Half-Day Safari Experience in Yala! We did a half-day safari with Ceylon Leopard Safari, and it exceeded all our expectations! The pickup was right on time, and the jeep was clean, comfortable, and perfect for photography. Our guide was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable – he knew exactly where to go and shared so many interesting facts about the park and animals. Within just a few hours, we spotted leopards, elephants, buffalo, deer, crocodiles, and countless birds! 🐆🦅🐘 The early morning light made the whole experience feel magical, and we had plenty of time to explore key areas of Yala National Park without feeling rushed. Highly recommend this safari for anyone short on time but still wanting an authentic and thrilling wildlife adventure. Great value, great service, and unforgettable memories

Great experience and value - Excellent service great communication. Guide was waiting early to collect us from hotel very friendly and professional. Loved the 4x4 pick great seating position, had the whole pick up to ourselves. We managed to see various deer buffalo some elephants, crocodiles and sadly no leopard (though of course it can’t be guaranteed to see one) although guide was eagle eyed enough to spot a fresh paw print in the sand so just missed it! Our guide very knowledgeable knew exactly where to go in the park. Overall we all loved the experience and fantastic value.

Highly recommend Yala safari - Amazing safari experience, local guides with great knowledge of the park, priority access to the park was a great bonus too. We seemed to have longer access to the park than most other tours. Option to have a guide with professional photographer for no extra charge who shared some amazing photos with us afterwards!
