Yala
Journey inland to Yala, home to Sri Lanka’s most celebrated national park. Stay for two nights at The Warden’s House, a boutique retreat in a peaceful seven-acre estate near Sella Kararagama, with abundant birdlife and close to Block 5 of Yala, a lesser travelled area of the park. Experience morning and evening safaris – the park’s diverse landscapes of scrubland, forest and lagoon are home to elephants, crocodiles, sloth bears and a high density of leopards. With expert naturalists guiding you on private 4×4 drives, you will have the chance to spot some of the country’s most iconic wildlife before returning for dinner under the stars.
