  We were picked up at 4.40 am at our hotel but had to drive for sometime to pick someone else up. When we arrived at the park we had to wait in a queue of jeeps. We finally got into the park at 6.15am. Our driver had very little engagement with us. Occasionally he would tell us us about what we were seeing. We can’t comment on who he was as he never introduced himself. He drove very fast therefore we missed many photo opportunities. On one occasion he drove through some water at speed and appeared to hit something. I hit my face on the seat in front causing my tooth to cut my lip and bleed. Two girls in the front of the Jeep hit their heads on the jeep windscreen. Both of them sustained lumps to their heads. When we told the driver he didn’t apologise he just stated that he had to drive fast (not sure if this was just a language barrier) . We saw lots of animals but did not got to photo them. We also saw a leopard and tried telling the driver to stop but he just drove on. Some jeeps had the window between passengers and the driver open which would have improved communication. Some jeeps also had a driver and co driver to improve seeing the wildlife. We were taken to lunch at 11.10am and was told lunch wasn’t until 12. We had to just hang around until then. We had lunch and was finished by 12.25. We were then told we could not leave until 2pm. We were told that we could go on the beach to pass time. On the beach there is a sign advising not to walk to the left or right of the sign due to wildlife and do not go in the sea. Not sure what he expected us to do on the beach for so long. 2 hours and 50 minutes for a 25 minute lunch is a total waste of time.

  We had an absolutely incredible experience at Yala Safari Park! From the moment we entered we started seeing animals, and we were lucky enough to spot a magnificent leopard which was truly a once-in-a-lifetime sight. The highlight of our trip was witnessing a large herd of elephants gracefully roaming the park, creating an unforgettable scene. To top it all off, we unexpectedly encountered a sloth bear, adding a fantastic surprise to our adventure. The diverse wildlife, stunning landscapes, and knowledgeable guides made this trip a perfect escape into nature. We can't recommend Yala enough for anyone seeking an unforgettable safari experience

  We booked the whole day so that we would see a lot, and we did indeed 🙂🙂. Our guide/driver Sule went the extra mile to show us everything. So we saw : a herd of 15 elephants, monkeys, bee-eaters, bird of preys, hornbill water buffalo, 3 different leopards, 1 bear..... So I can say, we did see all we wanted and more. The breakfast, lunch and water/orange was included and also the pick-up in our hotel in the neighbourhood. The lunch in-between is 2 hours, so bring something to read 🙂
