Turn a long journey into a scenic flight and reach Yala National Park in just one hour. This exclusive fly-in safari experience from Colombo allows you to skip road travel and directly access Sri Lanka’s most famous wildlife destination for a fast, efficient, and premium leopard safari experience.

Departing from Ratmalana Airport or Bandaranaike International Airport (CMB), you will enjoy a 60-minute scenic flight over Sri Lanka’s southern landscapes, arriving at Weerawila Airport, the closest airstrip to Yala National Park. From there, your private safari jeep and professional trekker will be ready to take you straight into the wilderness.

After a short transfer and lunch break, your adventure continues with a 4-hour afternoon safari inside Yala, where you may encounter elephants, sloth bears, and the world-famous Sri Lankan leopard in its natural habitat. Moreover, the timing is carefully planned to maximise wildlife sightings during the park’s most active hours.
