Overview

Leave Ella behind and journey to the coast through the wilderness of Yala Block 5 and Lunugamvehera National Park, where misty lakes and distant mountains cradle the wild. Far from the crowded trails of Yala Block 1, this peaceful route reveals nature’s rhythm as leopards roam freely, elephants bathe in still waters, and birds echo across forest. The adventure begins with pickup from Ella, and traveling through scenic countryside to Lunugamvehera, where open lakes and forest edges create perfect habitats. Continue into Yala Block 5, with safaris offered at sunrise, morning, and afternoon—each revealing a different mood of the wild. Guided by a wildlife expert. Enjoy a packed homemade breakfast or evening snack. On private or sunrise safaris, receive a signature wildlife photo collection captured by our crew — complimentary. Seamless transfer continues to Galle, Mirissa, Dickwella, Tangalle, or any southern coastal town, completing a journey where comfort, discovery and nature meet.

Itinerary

  1. 1

    Stop 1

    2.5 hours

    The heart of this safari — Yala Block 5 — is renowned for its serene landscapes and rare leopard sightings. Here, wildlife moves freely without the disturbance of heavy tourist traffic. Fewer jeeps mean a truly personal experience, where every sighting — from a prowling leopard to a grazing elephant — feels intimate and special.

  2. 2

    Lunugamvehera National Park

    2 hours

    A connecting sanctuary between Yala and Udawalawe, Lunugamvehera National Park features shimmering lakes and dry forests that attract elephants, crocodiles, and birds. It’s a peaceful haven for wildlife safari sri lanka enthusiasts and one of the best locations for photography.
