About this safari
A full day in Yala gives you the best chance to see leopards and to watch them for longer. You enter at first light around 6:00 AM and leave at last light at 6:00 PM.
While other jeeps leave the park at midday, we stay inside. That means less traffic, more time at each sighting and the freedom to wait for the right moment. Lunch is taken by the beach between 12:00 noon and 2:00 PM.
