Luxury camping in Yala

Sir Arthur C. Clarke, world renowned scientist and writer settled in this beautiful island in the year 1956, claiming that, Sri Lanka was the best place in the world from which to view the universe……. Like the universe, this island is also unending with hidden treasures mysteries and beauty…….PERFECT for that PERFECT holiday of a life time. In fact I had the great opportunity of unraveling the mysterious and exciting luxury camping in Yala National Park.
One of the advantages of being on camping safari is being able to immerse yourself in an entire 24-hour cycle; the very fact that you are able to eat, sleep, shower, walk around (campsite only!) inside the parks means that far from being the outsider looking in at the wildlife, you actually become part of it. And having the facilities at camp to fall back on – whether for relaxation, freshening up or having a meal in the river- makes it all more enjoyable.
Another important benefit is that when out on safari you can get the rewards of having highly exclusive access to the parks’ hotspots at the best times of day. Good areas for game-viewing and scenery are often located well inside the parks and are best seen at dawn and dusk.
Due to restrictions placed on day-time visitors, you can take full advantage of your close proximity to these places by getting the best out of them before the sun gets too high and others arrive or as it goes down when they leave. You need to experience this amazing Wildlife in Sri Lanka. Not only in Yala but also in Udawalawe, Wilpattu, Horton Plains are few more Nationals parks that can recommend for you to visit.
