    My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our 5-Day Essential tour with Stelaranholidays. They went above and beyond to ensure a stress-free experience. The Yala safari was just one of the activities organized by Stelaranholidays. We also visited a turtle hatchery, went on a Madu River Safari, explored a Mask factory, toured a Spice garden, and visited the Galle Dutch fort. Whether it was cultural, religious, adventurous, beach-related, or nature-focused, Sri Lanka had it all. Despite being informed about the difficulties of the roads leading to the Yala safari entrance, our guide Chandana and our jeep driver Kumara skillfully navigated through, providing us with a fantastic and unforgettable experience. We saw bears, leopards, deer, elephants, and peacocks, thoroughly enjoying this tour. Throughout the tour, we experienced various aspects of Sri Lanka, always feeling safe, secure, and well-informed. Chandana, our tour guide, was a warm, intelligent, and sensitive individual."

    For us, we are coming from Cyprus. One of our friends recommended contacting Stelaran Holidays directly. He provided us with the owner's number and suggested that we call and ask for him. Our friend has also shared your number with the owner, who will offer us special rates. Finally, we will arrive on 10th January 2024 at 6:30 am in Colombo. We chose a full-day safari, and our driver was Kumara. The park is beautiful and full of surprises. We spotted three leopards and several elephants, one so close to the jeep that we had to back up. There were also many other beautiful animals, including elephants, deer, peacocks, parrots, monkeys, buffaloes, mongooses, wild boars, crocodiles, marmots, monitor lizards, hares, jackals, numerous birds, and of course, a bear. Moreover, we saw another leopard right in front of us! We consider ourselves very lucky. We had lunch at the beach, which was really nice. The full-day safari is long, from 5 am to 6 pm, but it's much better because there are fewer cars in the park from 10 am to 3 pm. Kumara was knowledgeable about the park and careful when driving. Our guide was also very good.

    The park was close. Alternative smaller park adjacent to it was inadequate with no wildlife at all. And of course I was not notified before paying them full overpriced fee but just when I realized that GPS is showing different location and show them the evidence. They toured 8-9 km cummulative, And that was it. Another tourist bite and rip off.
