  Once i booked, I received a whatsapp message very quickly about the trip & the day before. We were collected from the port promptly & taken by car to the entrance of the Yaka National Park by a polite driver then handed over to the Jeep driver. As per Park rules, we had to stop for lunch at 12pm, we did have to wait about 40min for lunch but when it came, it was a buffet lunch. Would have been good to have been told how long for lunch. We had 2h for lunch & a walk along the beach before back in the Jeep. The jeep driver was experienced in driving & finding & naming the animals/ birds. A full day & arrived back at the ship in good time. Well worth booking as much cheaper than the cruise company tour.

  Great full day tour of Yala, unfortunately no sighting of leopard but lots of other animals to see!! Our guide was waiting for us as agreed in a private car at the meeting point at the cruise terminal to whisk us off to meeting point for the off road Jeep. Arrived back in plenty of time before the ship was due to leave with no concerns. A great trip from start to finish which I’d recommend using this tour company for.

  The driver met us at the gate as communicated. They took us by car to the park, where we transferred to the off-road vehicle. Other companies take you all the way from the port and back in the semi open off road vehicles. The car was a far more comfortable experience. The park visit was amazing. We had the vehicle to ourselves along with a guide. The guide was very knowledgeable and helped point out animals and gave explanations. He was in contact with with guides to make sure we had the best chance to see the elephants. It’s the wet season and the elephants are hard to find and see. We had two interactions thanks to the teamwork. The guide also let the drive know when we were done taking pictures. The included lunch should also get a special shout out. This was served buffet style to a number of tour operators working together. There is a covered pavilion in the park next to the beach with washrooms. The crew set up lunch for everyone and we were served cold beverages as well. There were 10 dishes all very tasty. Clearly the food was make by locals with love and care. We finished the afternoon and were taken back to the car, to then be driven to the ship again. Everything was well organized. The tour operator had sent a few notices through WhatsApp to make sure we knew exactly what to expect. We could not have been happier.

  This is a great tour. I highly recommend going to Yala. It is worth the trip. They picked us up at the ship and took us to the park then back to the ship on time. No issues. Great people. Thanks Raul.

  Our driver was great as far as spotting animals, but the vehicle that we were in could barely keep up with the other vans that were part of the excursion. Our vehicle looked like it was a rescue vehicle from World War II. The seats had holes in them. When it started pouring down rain, the driver realized that the windshield wipers weren’t working The transmission was barely able to move. When we finally stopped we couldn’t get the van started again without someone towing us so our concerns for getting back to the cruise terminal in a timely manner were certainly heightened, this van should’ve been checked out to make sure that it was in good working order before it was used to transport people.
