5.00My friend and I are both 22 years old and are backpacking around South East Asia. During our stop in Sri Lanka we went with this company for our Yala Park tour as it was recommended to us by a friend. It was very easy to book, the tour guide was incredibly friendly and had a lot of information to give during the tour. The drivers were also very friendly and made the experience very enjoyable. I would definitely recommend going with this company.
Comfort ride and expert knowledge

5.00A wonderful guided Safari in Yala National Park. Vehicle was very comfortable and spacious and the tour guide was both very friendly and knowledgeable about all the species spotted. It exceeded our expectations of the animals that we were able to see even only doing a half day tour.
Our yala safari with vidura safari tours was unforgettable.the driver took great care us from start to finish.

5.00We had as awesome safari experience with vidura yala safari tours. We did two half days (one morning and one afternoon) which worked perfectly for our friends of 0. (03adults) our driver ruvindu was very knowledgeable about all of the animals and in particular the birds.He was very patient with my friends taking lot of photos and help out by positioning the jeep for great lighting and spotted so many birds we never would have seen.we saw two leopards on our final day and many great elephants.so we highly recommend vidura yala safari tours jeep service and driver ruvindu for your safari experience.
I recommend full day safari is better to leopards-and this is a time to thanks vidura and his team' their make me happy

5.00Our safari with Vidura Yala Safari was the highlight of our trip. We specifically wanted a chance to see a leopard, and they made it reallity. He reads the park so well footprints, sounds, even the behaviour of other animals to know when a leopard might be nearby.
