What to Expect

After an early morning departure from Colombo, your journey will take you north to Wilpattu National Park, famous for its serene natural lakes (known as "villus") and rich wildlife diversity. On your private jeep safari, keep your eyes peeled for leopards — Wilpattu is one of the best places in Sri Lanka to spot them in the wild. Elephants, sloth bears, deer, and exotic birdlife also thrive in this untouched reserve.

With fewer crowds than other parks, Wilpattu provides a peaceful, authentic safari atmosphere — ideal for wildlife lovers and photographers. Your expert tracker will navigate the best routes and share insights into the park’s ecology and hidden stories.

After your safari, sit back and relax on your return journey to Colombo, with unforgettable memories of Sri Lanka’s wild northwestern wilderness.

If you wish to be dropped at a different location (such as your next destination), we can arrange this with a cost adjustment.
