An extended five-day stay in Yala National Park, home to one of the highest densities of leopards found anywhere in the world. Multiple game drives across several days dramatically increase your odds of a genuine sighting compared to a single rushed visit, and our expert trackers know the park’s individual leopard territories intimately.

Between drives, you’ll stay at a comfortable safari lodge on the park’s edge, with the sounds of the wild bush right outside.

Traveller Reviews

What Travellers Say

★★★★★

“Hard, beautiful, and completely worth it. The local guides knew the mountain like family, which made a genuinely demanding trek feel safe from start to finish.”

Daniel Reyes Himalayan High Altitude Trek, 2024
★★★★★

“We saw three leopards in two days at Yala, which our guide told us was rare even for him. Every detail of this trip felt considered — nothing generic about it.”

Sarah Okonkwo Sri Lanka Wildlife Safari, 2025
★★★★★

“Riding Khardung La was the highlight of my life on two wheels. Tenzin and the team handled everything — permits, altitude, the works — so all we had to do was ride. Genuinely life-changing.”
