We can arrange a site seeing tour with our hotel own vehicles and drivers. You will enjoy driving to Yala. Jeep Safari of Yala National Park, where you experience the thrill of coming face to face with an Elephant. Primarily aimed at older children and adventurous parents who wish to encounter much of the wonderful wildlife Sri Lanka can offer, this tour involves long yet interesting road journeys and visits some prime natural history locations.

On a recent trip to Sri Lanka I had the opportunity for a one day visit Yala National Park (also known as Ruhunu National Park). All I can say is WOW! This is like a miniature African safari! The pictures shown are the results of only one day in the park. Unfortunately we were confined to the inside of a covered jeep at all times - I could not even open the door to take a picture. Park rules. Therefore all my shots were hand held - many times with our jeep running at a rough idle - an almost impossible combination. However, the image stabilisation on my Canon 100-400 IS lens is what saved the day. All pictures were taken with a Canon EOS D-30. I highly recommend this park - but you really need to spend 3 days or more to see what Yala has to offer. I was told that there were approximately 35 leopards that roamed the park. We saw three of them. A very lucky day in the park!
