And bam, there he came again! We saw it very close and it was great. Afterwards, he continued with us through the park and tried to fulfill all our wishes and spot as many animals as possible. We saw 4 leopards,…”

“-Schlechtester Fahrer: viel zu schnell gefahren, oft nicht angehalten (erst wenn wir wie wild geklopft haben), fuhr weiter wenn es für ihn passte, war die ganze Zeit nur am Handy, scheint kein Interesse an den Tieren zu haben (fuhr viel zu nahe an die Elefanten und fand es lustig), hat auf dem Rückweg oft gehupt (trotz Schilder, dass dies nicht gut sei wegen den Tieren) -Tourdauer ist gelogen, die Tour dauerte vom Hotel bis wieder beim Hotel nur 4 Stunden! (sprich nur 3 Stunden und 15 Minuten im Park) -Eintrittsgebühr musste bar bezahlt werden, da diese nicht selbst beim Eingang bezahlt werden dürfen”

Le safari a durée presque 5h de 6h à 11h. L’entrée du parc nous a coûtée 11 000 LKR/p. Il me faisait pas beau temps donc nous avons pas vu bcp d’animaux. Le chauffeur de la jeep était très bon. Notre guide lui a bcp dormi pendant le safari… Nous recommandons tout de même cette expérience.”

“We had a superb trip. We were picked up from our hotel and joined the rest of the tour group and guide in Yala, where we had speedy entry into the park. The guide was very experienced, knowledgeable and able to predict the movement of animals. We saw a leopard cross our path and were the front jeep to see this, as our guide had correctly predicted the movement of the animal. We saw many elephants up close, deer, water buffalo, a jackal and some other animals, as well as many birds - all of which the guide named and gave us further information about eg bee-eaters, hummingbirds, kingfishers, herons…”
