Amazing Elephants! Great host and Skilled driver

thomas_h, Jun 2025

Such a fun experience, my guide Sirantha and Driver Sasanka were friendly , knowledgeable and very skilled at finding the right areas and manoeuvring the vehicle to get the best view. We saw many Deer , buffalo and countless birds aswell as 2 Crocodiles. 2 seperate encounters with leopards, but the highlight was the Elephants which we were lucky enough to see a total of 6 including some baby elephants , Sasanka was able to get us very close with an amazing view while still keeping a safe distance, amazing experience and very skilled driver. These guys made my trip 5 stars.

The best driver of Yala!!!

Antony_D, Dec 2021

Our driver was a true expert of the Yala park, could listen to the sounds of different animals, especially leopards, spot footprints, and animals when other drivers nearby, or next to us did not see anything!!! Result was to have a close and personal view of one leopard for quite a few minutes, see another one sleeping on a tree and heard a third one, but did not get to see. Amazing experience, along with all other animals sighted, great info shared and a wonderful company!

We were able to leave on time. ...

We were able to leave on time. The driver was very kind and rough, but he drove politely. We enjoyed the Wildlife Preserve and Takhini Hot Spring tour and also we were very happy to see the animals. It was a half-day tour, but just the right length.
