natural world”

  Lifetime experience in heaven  - From the desert to the jungle, our stay at Ceylon Wild Safaris has been an extraordinary experience. Our kids were thrilled to connect with nature in such a beautiful setting.... read more A special thanks for the superb Sri Lankan authentic cuisine—it was truly a highlight! We feel blessed to have discovered this piece of heaven. We’ll definitely be back and will recommend this amazing place to all our friends and family

  First night ever in yala  - There was nothing wrong.
You can see the stars while eating a delicious meal.
You are in a protected tent with AC, a pool, and bathroom- inside the tent.
You... read more might no want to use the pool after one night- but use it in the afternoon. For no reason. You can a lot of good photos.

  Just Amazing  - WOW! Absolutely fantastic experience. The food was traditional homemade Sri Lankan and totally delicious with a set menu of lots of dishes. The safari's are great fun and we saw... read more leopards and other wildlife. Indi was so knowledgeable and knew exactly where to take us in the national park to spot wildlife. The accommodation was also fantastic and spacious with a plunge pool on the deck. Staff were extremely helpful and nothing was too much trouble. My only complaint was that we didn't stay long enough. I would definitely recommend Ceylon Wild Safaris.

  A total gem  - Amazing place. We have had the best time with Ceylon Wild Safaris. They have been so organised and helpful and then delivered above and beyond. The rooms are just wow.... read more The food was delicious and the evening campfires a memory for years to come. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and made the whole experience way better as he carefully explained everything and diligently found the animals - leopard, sloth bear, elephants, crocodiles we all loved it.

Highly recommended for families and couples wanting a top notch experience in Yala and generally in Sri Lanka - a highlight for us.

  Best place I have stayed at in 10 years  - This was a magical few days
We went with our 2 teenage kids
Everything about the experience was 5*.
Accommodation was excellent, very comfortable and high end.
The safari was... read more top notch. Indie our guide was the definition of expert and could not have been a nicer person.
We saw leopard and sloth bears as well as numerous elephants, crocs etc.
The food was unbelievably good and the staff were so helpful.
The evening fire with a drink under the stars was also magical
Cannot rate highly enough. A must visit

  Top Tier Experience  - We had a brilliant time at Ceylon Wild Safari’s. The accommodation was very comfortable and clean. The staff were so friendly. The food was delicious and, although we were in... read more the middle of the jungle, we felt so relaxed and at ease. We had Indie as a tour guide, who was simply fantastic.

  A relaxed atmosphere that is affordable and gives more than it takes  - The ideal place to relax in a very tranquil atmosphere with the added advantage of being virtually in the Yala Park. The tent was more like a large room with... read more air conditioning, en suite bathroom and all the essential amenities. The food was typical traditional Sri Lankan beautifully cooked and presented. The staff were excellent and nothing was too much for them to do, and always with a smile and politeness. It is not a five star glamping site but to me it was worth more than five stars because of the welcome I got and the friendly stay. The added pleasure was going on two Jeep drives in to the Yala National Park, one with a very knowledgeable guide and one with a very enthusiastic driver who I am convinced had a 360 degree area of vision. His ability to see the birds and mammals was amazing, Diluk by name, he is worth every cent paid. The finding of two leopards one in the evening and one in the morning showed his skill at manoeuvring the jeep to the best advantage points without causing consternation to other tourists. I whole heartedly recommend Ceylon Wild Safaris for anyone who wants a comfortable wildlife experience that is not over the top in price.

  A great experience!  - We stayed at Ceylon Wild Safaris for one night with our baby and we wish we had booked in another couple of days here! The service was top notch and... read more the team at CWS was fantastic! They were well coordinated, punctual and attentive to our needs! Our guide Jagath picked us up from the meeting point, and was courteous and friendly. The room came with a complementary crib was quite useful! The food was absolutely delicious, some of the best Sri Lankan food we’ve had! Even our baby was able to eat it with no problems. For dinner the team had set up a candle lit dinner and bonfire under the stars for our little family which was a beautiful and unforgettable experience. We wish we could’ve stayed a bit longer but the place was fully booked out for the next day. Overall, great place, great vibes, perfect for families, couples or large groups. Highly recommend, they’re amazing. If you’re looking for a comfortable Safari experience in Sri Lanka, this is it!

  Upscale camping adventure in Yala  - Ceylon Wild Safaris is a beautiful property hidden in the Yala jungle thicket which is quite, peaceful and private. It is an upscale camping adventure with a large tent housing... read more a comfy bed, air conditioning, sofa sitting area, personal safe and an amazing outdoor patio with the plunge pool overlooking the jungle. This is a great spot to listen to a myriad of birds singing at dawn and to hear the yip-howls of the Jackals in the eve. They serve a variety of Sri Lankan food and the Sri Lankan pork curry is a must try. At the edge of the property, there is a large rocky outcrop perfect for an evening drink, and also a beautiful lake where you can watch the Pelicans, Hornbills and a few crocodiles. The staff at the camp are also very friendly and hospitable, always greeted us with a smile.

  What an educational and phenomenal experience!  - We stumbled across this safari camp when we were planning our Sri Lanka trip a few months ago. We couldn’t be happier with the choice!

The camp is... read more about 5min away from the entrance of block 1. The customer service is impeccable from the minute we started the booking with Aaron to meeting our guide Indi. Communication is seamless and what they had promised really delivered beyond our expectations - from the food we had at the camp to breakfast and lunch served within the park! It’s all incredibly tasty and even our 7year old ate all the Sri Lankan food (the staff did offer chicken and fish fingers but we prefer our child to eat local food).

The lodging is exceptionally comfortable with a sufficiently cold AC and a great outdoor shower! The camp is run on solar panels which we love and you can tell the staff really cares about the environment and trying to treat the animals and land with respect!

Kudos to the entire Ceylon Safari team. We have such a memorable trip from seeing multiple elephants to spending hours tracking a leopard . The best part is Indi (our and tracker) is able to provide a lot of context makes the entire experience very educational!

Thank you for a wonderful experience!
