Leopards with Ishan, the best guide - The safari was amazing! Our guide, Ishan, was the best! He was very patient and attentive (not crazy fast like other drivers) and that allowed us to see a Leopard hunting at down 20 minutes after entering the park. He has more than 10 years of experience and he is absolutely passionate about animals and very respectful towards wildlife. Breakfast and lunch were awesomely cooked too!

Wonderful - We had a very good experience—we saw leopards, bears, elephants, and all kinds of animals. Our tour guide, Ishan, was extremely professional and always went out of his way to make our safari journey memorable.

Just wow 😍 - We had booked an afternoon tour. For both of us it was the first safari of our lives and we were thrilled. Exceptionally great service! For one thing, our guide Ishan was really super nice, he explained a lot to us and it was just fun to discover the animals. On the other hand, we were lucky to see the elephants, peacocks, mongooses, water buffalo, birds, crodiles, deer and even twice a leopard up close. What was important to us was that the animals were not rushed with the jeep. People always spoke extremely quietly, you should not use flash when taking pictures and I personally think it is very good for the national park and the wildlife to make only a small part (zone 1) available to tourists. Thanks again to Ishan, Lucas the Leopard and all the actors of the park. Unforgettable! Steffi & Nazife say thank you from Germany

Visually, they’d likely see open green spaces with grass, trees, and maybe flowers or shrubs, depending on the park’s up - Visually, they’d likely see open green spaces with grass, trees, and maybe flowers or shrubs, depending on the park’s upkeep. There could be winding paths, benches, or picnic tables scattered around. If it’s a bigger park, they might spot a playground with slides and swings, a pond or small lake with ducks paddling around, or even sports fields where people are kicking a ball or tossing a frisbee. In spring or summer, the colors pop—bright greens, blooming flowers—while autumn might bring a mix of orange and red leaves, and winter could turn it into a stark, quiet expanse, maybe dusted with snow.

Great Safari, respecting nature! - Last week we went on a safari in Yala National Park, it was a unique experience and I would recommend it to everyone. Much of the credit goes especially to Madu, our guide, who really deserves 5/5 stars and I highly recommend asking about him when you book. He arrived super punctual to the appointment (6:35 am for a half-day safari). He provided us with water and binoculars as provided by the package, but most importantly he had a mini encyclopedia where he showed us the various types of animals, especially the birds we saw. Very respectful approach to the animals and especially you could see that Madu has a lot of experience. He didn’t frantically take us from one point of the park to another (as many other jeeps did), but waited patiently for more than 20 minutes in the area where a leopard had staked out, explaining why we were stationed there. The breakfast she provided was super good and plentiful, prepared by her mother, various curries, crepes and fresh fruit, all always done naturally and with a big smile. Thank you for everything Madu, I wish you the best!

Great Driver, Guide. Very Knowledgeable with Eagle eyes. - We we lucky enough to take 2 tours with, Maduka of Yala Dreams Wild Safari at Yala Block one and the Blocks 5/6. The man has eagle eyes. He even saw a chameleon on the side of a tree disguised as bark, We saw a Leopard, Elephants, Crocodiles , Eagles ( lucky enough to see one dive and grab a fish from a pond), many deer, etc. He'll pick you up and return you to your hotel. Drives slowly through the park, really looks for what is there and knows what everything is. I very highly recommend using him for safaris. You won't regret it.
