Safari Overview

The Shared All-Inclusive Full Day Safari is the most complete way to experience Yala National Park. Spanning 12 hours (from 5 AM to 5 PM), this tour covers the entire spectrum of the day: the active morning hunt, the quiet midday lull (perfect for birdwatching and exploring deeper zones), and the golden hour finale. Because you are sharing the cost with up to 6 passengers, you get this marathon experience for just $110, a fraction of the price of a private jeep. It includes everything: your ticket, breakfast, lunch, refreshments, and a full day of expert guiding.
