Great safari - Great safari. Sidu was a great driver. He is very compassionate about the animals and very knowledgeable. Janaka say they try to be first in line and they were. It was great to be the vehicle in the park. Sidu was a great spotter and we saw leopard elephant wild boar water buffalo peacocks and lots more. Would highly recommend this company

Rumble in the Jungle - We had a great time. We saw everything we expected, Leopards, Elephants, very close encounter! Crocodiles, Monkeys top jolly. Great guide with Ishara, very informative, spotted things we would have missed, top guide. Our driver Ashen manuvered some very tricky pot holes but smoothed them out. Just a fantastic day out. You must go.

Awesome tour, experienced and friendly driver - The journey was amazing! The car is big and good for the tour. I’ve seen many animals and I was told a lot of information about them. The driver gave me binoculars so I could see and film animals in all the details. Elephants, crocodiles, buffalos, many birds are great but my driver Sachike was able to find and show me a leopard! Even more, many other cars where in the same place but Sachike found the best place for me to see and film the leopard! That’s where experience becomes very important! Great work, amazing tour, thank you!

Excellent safari in Yala with superb driver and spotter! - We went on both morning and afternoon safaris, four separate trips over two days. Our driver and guide Darshana seemed very experienced both in how the park works and also finding and spotting animals. Darshana avoided the early morning entry queues having purchased our tickets the evening before which allowed us to enter very quickly. He brought breakfast hoppers with him too. Darshana has excellent spoken English. We were lucky enough to see all of the animals we were hoping for including; four separate sightings of leopard both morning and afternoon, sloth bear as we were on our way out of the park, elephants with babies, and crocodile, as well as water buffalo and deer. While it’s easy to focus on the big animals we also saw some amazing birds; serpent eagle, brahminy kite, sea eagle, bee eaters, kingfishers, mynah bird, painted stork, and many more. There’s also of course the smaller animals; monitor lizards, hare, and squirrels. Overall the experience was excellent, lots of animals, good routes that avoided other jeeps, a knowledgable driver who knew the park well, and a decent powerful vehicle that seemed much faster than many others. Darshana the driver is not only a driver and spotter but he’s also an enthusiast taking lots of photos for his own collection. He has photographed the leopard extensively to the extent that he can identify many of them by sight by their facial markings. He also know their territories and regular locations to make sighting more likely. Big, big recommend!

Saw a leopard but average guide - Although I requested Sudu or Ish because of the good reviews we got assigned another driver starting with M. We found him quite underwhelming, barely any interaction and just occasionally pointing out things that were mostly crossing the road. We did wait for an hr or so with all the other jeeps to see a leopard and thankfully eventually saw it. Overall we had an average guide experience and I can’t really recommend this company over any others based on this.
