Yala National Park, Sri Lanka
This award-winning safari outfit was one of the first to come up with the concept of luxury tented accommodation as a springboard for wildlife viewing in Sri Lanka, and it still sets the benchmark, thanks to the enthusiasm of the staff, and superb siting of the tents on the fringes of Yala National Park. Sleeping under canvas allows you to experience the heart of the island’s wilderness without sacrificing creature comforts such as a king-sized bed, hot shower and your own loo. Game drives, conducted by the camp’s team of resident naturalists, are conducted in state-of-the-art Toyata Jeeps that allow you to get really close to the leopards and other wildlife – a great way to experience this pristine natural environment.
