We were very satisfied - We've been provided with very high quality of services. It took us 15-20 minutes to discuss what we were looking for in a messenger as a starting point and then our 2 days adventure was perfectly organised and successefully delivered. The niciest thing were people taking care of us, their willingness to help and make sure we enjoyed. And, of course, fantastic, beautiful Sri Lanka as we discovered it as a result. We visited a lot of beautiful places, enjoyed gorgeous sun sets and sun rises, watched animals (incl. a leopard) and birds. We were provided with tasty local lunches, fruits and water. That was definetely one our our best travel experiences in terms of organisation, punctuality and impressions! Just go ahead and we hope you will enjoy as well!:)

A true 5/5 experience! - Me and my partner had the most amazing experience with Yala Dreams wild! We did a full day tour from 04.30 in the morning to 18.00 in the evning. We got to see all animanls we hoped for, including two lepards, a baby elephant and two couples of jakals. Our guide Ishan did an increadiable job, making sure that we hade the best experience possible. He is knowelageble since he has been doing this for a long time and we could tell. Still he was exited to provide a good tour. Beside the tour itself, the vehicle was very comfortabel to sit in all day and we got served breakfast and lunch with traditional sri lankan delicious food. This was truly a 5/5 experience, I recomend anyone to go with Yala Dreams wild and especially with the guide Ishan!

Srimal is very kind and wise, he took us to see wonderfull animals, we could even pet an elephant, and the best part: we could see a leopard! I strongly recomend this safari, if we ever come back to Sri Lanka, we Will do It again. Thanks for a fantastic journey Srimal!

Perfect experience - This was our second time booking with Sakun, and once again everything was perfectly organised. He arranged a hassle-free transfer from our hotel, and our guide, Srimal, was very knowledgeable, answering all our questions and sharing so much information about the place and the animals, which made the experience even more enjoyable. On the way to the safari, we even spotted an elephant up close, which was incredible! Tasty breakfast and lunch were provided by Sakun — such an amazing touch. We had lunch in a beautiful spot right in the middle of the jungle, which our guide Srimal brought us to. We were hoping to see a leopard, and we were lucky enough not only to spot one but also to get the perfect view. If you’re looking for a perfect safari experience, I definitely recommend booking with them!

Best Adventure - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Today we went on an all-day Yala Safari, and once again Sakun organized an unforgettable experience for us! The day started with an early morning hotel pick-up in a comfortable, air-conditioned car stocked with cool water. Shortly after beginning the safari, our driver surprised us with breakfast — delicious sandwiches, cakes, boiled eggs, and cold water. It was the perfect way to start the adventure. Later, we enjoyed an incredible lunch of Sri Lankan egg fried rice with prawns, chicken, sausage, and vegetables , with chilli sauce on side— all cooked to perfection by Sakun’s mum, who is truly a goddess of cooking! Our safari driver, Srimal, was outstanding. Professional, knowledgeable, and caring, he guided us throughout the day, pointing out birds, animals, and explaining everything along the way. He’s also a pro driver and “hunter”, always knowing the best angles and moments to capture and make best pictures . Most importantly, he has the rare skill of knowing exactly where and how to find leopards! Thanks to him, we had the best chances to see the beauty of Yala’s wildlife up close. If you want to experience an unforgettable safari in Sri Lanka, book your trip with Sakun and safari driver Srimal. We can’t wait to come back and join them again for another adventure!

Once-in-a-Lifetime Experience 100% recommend - Our safari in Yala National Park was absolutely unforgettable! From the moment we entered the park, we were amazed by the incredible diversity of wildlife. Within the first hour, we spotted elephants bathing, crocodiles sunning on the riverbanks, and several exotic birds flying above. The highlight of the trip was seeing a 2 leopards resting gracefully on a rock – something we had only dreamed of before! If you want an authentic and thrilling safari in Sri Lanka, Yala is the best choice. We left with amazing photos and memories that will last a lifetime. Highly recommended! 100%

Great safaris, great guides! - Great experience!! We did 3 safaris with Thivein!! Safari 1: Full day on blocks 5 and 6, no bear or leopard seen that day, but beautiful parks, lots of herds, axis deer mix with buffaloes, monkeys, peacocks... we also saw crocodiles, elephants .. Safari 2: Full day in block 1, with Sanka, very good guide, we saw several leopards and all the other animals. Safari 3: half day in block 1, still several leopards, a golden jackal and all the other animals, bad luck for the bear, it will be for next time The guides are very professional, they track animals by observing the tracks and behavior of other animals. The jeeps are comfortable. Far more advantageous rates than those offered by my guest house. I recommend 100%
