Fantastic shaw in Yala - We had the best time ever. Shehan and his driver of safari jeep were so good with pointing out the animals and showing us everything. We were the 1st Jeep going into the park and we drove looking for the Leopard pretty much by our selfs. And we were very lucky to see the illusive Leopard four or five times. Always one if the first jeeps where he might appear. Twice a leopard passed our jeep just a meter away. amazing! We also had an Elephant passing the jeep. Except for the bear we saw everything you can in a Safari 👍🏼😊 And shehan is very well connected. Also a plus: food was good and the drive, also it can get bumpy his driver drove very safely and slowly when needed. Thank you so much. Can only recommend doing a safari with Shehan c Tours .

Perfect Yala safari, great guide! - Great Yala safari tour with an experienced guide, we saw lots of animals and we took a bit less popular paths so we didn’t wait in a queue with other jeeps. You can see an incredible nature! The tour was perfectly organized, we had a pickup from Tangalle. Highly recommended!

Dont go if you love animals. - Shehan is a funny guy with good english skills. But he doesnt Tell you much Informations while the safari. You have to ask everything. The saddest thing is, that they are not respecting the little animals there. For example they push the little ones with the car from the street and scare them, because they just focussed to show us a leopard or elefants. On the other hand , they are driving 4 hours the same roads up and down, which is realy boring. The male elefant is so annoyed there from the jeeps that he attacted them and broke his tusk. They even blocked the way with their jeeps and disturb the elefant family to go their way......
