Tour Overview
Sri Lanka is one of the most biologically diverse countries in Asia, an asset best reflected in her national parks and reserves, home to thousands of different spices from leopards, elephants, sloth bears and brightly colored birds. Sri Lanka’s Yala National Park and Wilpattu National Park have the largest populations of wild leopards in the world. The leopard lives in isolation and is easily recognizable by its rusty yellow coat with dark spots, its tail longer than half of its body length. This is the perfect safari for anyone interested in leopard watching and capturing these remarkable animals on your camera.
