What an incredible day we had with our guide Avishka and our driver Predii!! We tracked a pair of leopards for a while before spotting them right in front of us, thanks to Predii, who is a true driver and, it must be said, much smarter than the other drivers there 😜
Avishka made sure we were comfortable the whole time and provided us with all sorts of information about the wildlife and even the flora.
We saw an elephant, jackals, monitor lizards, birds, monkeys, crocodiles... Everyone was there thanks to Avishka and Predii, who have a real eye for spotting animals!! Taking the whole day is definitely worth it, and it flew by.
Thank you Wilpattu Safari and especially Avishka and Predii 🫶🏻

We had an amazing full day Safari in Wilpattu. Our guide Kaushika and our driver Supun really did their best to show us every detail of the Sri Lankan wildlife they truly love and … the Sri Lanka leopard. We would definitely recommend this safari and hope to come back to Wilpattu one day.

I booked to stay inside the DCL bungalows and organised the driver / guide / chef etc with this company. From start to finish it has been amazing. The communication over Watsapp was extremely helpful in answering all my questions, once booked I didn’t need to do a thing and we were really taken care of from start to finish.
We had a Driver - Pasindu, a Ranger - Ruchira
And a Naturalist - Mindaka. All 3 are absolutely brilliant at their jobs and have the eyes of hawks! We seen every animal on the list, multiple times. Even if we didn’t, I would still award 5 stars as They clearly care about the park / animals and even though they do this every day, they still get as excited and eager to see leopard as us. They truly went out of their way to make sure we had a good view of the animals but show respect to the animals by giving space / trying to avoid multiple jeeps.
Mindaka sat with us throughout the safari sharing stories / facts and information about the park and the animals which was very interesting. He knows them very well and knows the leopards by name. His English is perfect so it was easy communication and in general he’s a nice person and very easy to talk to.
The bungalow its self was well worth it and I am so glad we booked it, it made the experience. I read a couple of negative reviews about the bungalow and was worried at first, but it is a bungalow in the middle of a national park, built with the idea of minimal human disruption. So of course it’s not a luxury stay, it is an adventure base where you can observe creatures and be in nature. There are birds / crocs / cats lurking in the area, it is fantastic. The beds are comfy , clean and you get given a toiletry box on arrival. The chef cooked us some of the best meals we’ve had in Sri Lanka.
It was a really great experience from start to finish, made better by the staff. Thank you 🙂

Best safari company in Wilpattu. Highly recommended. We did a night safari and full day safari with my clients. We saw the Leopard, Rusty spotted cat, Jugle cat & Loris and many other animals. Mindaka did a great job.

Janith (Jani) and driver Madu were amazing! Madu had an eagle eye for spotting animals and reading leopard tracks and Jani was knowledgeable and great company throughout the trip. We stayed overnight in Wilpattu - a bit daunting at first but when we woke up at 5.30am the next morning and realised where we were, was a truly serene and uplifting experience. The bungalow manager was a decent cook and made us a hearty Sri Lankan breakfast. Wilpattu is a quite magical place and these guys were the best guides we could have hoped for, full of knowledge and respectful of the wildlife.

Had the best experience in kokmote bungalow. From the entrance we went another 3 and half hour deep in to the jungle and stayed the night. God it was so good. Not the luxury stay. It's like doing camping

We did a full day safari and an evening safari, and we honestly couldn’t be happier.
We started with the night safari, led by their night-spotting specialist — absolutely fascinating. We were able to see snakes, lizards, and even lorises. We had dinner at one of the night watch posts where local farmers stay to protect their crops from elephants, and they explained to us how everything works. It felt authentic, respectful, and eye-opening.
The full day safari was simply spectacular. We saw so many animals, including three different leopards — and two of those sightings were completely exclusive to us, thanks to the incredible skill of our driver and our guide Mindaka. He is not only extremely experienced, but also an amazing wildlife photographer. At the end of the day, he shared the photos he took (see the pictures), and they are just breathtaking. Many people that day only saw one leopard; we saw three, with private and respectful encounters.
Also, a special mention to Sachi, who organized everything for us online smoothly and efficiently.
The whole team is a solid 10/10.
Highly recommended — an unforgettable experience.

I had such a wonderful experience here from start to finish. One of the first things I noticed was how convenient the parking was—there was plenty of space available, which made arriving stress-free and set a positive tone for the day.
The atmosphere itself was really pleasant and welcoming. Whether at the park or even inside the office, everything felt well-organized, clean, and thoughtfully maintained. I truly appreciated the effort that went into making the place feel inviting and comfortable.
What stood out most for me, though, was how much I was able to learn. Spending time here wasn’t just enjoyable, it was also meaningful because I walked away with new insights and knowledge. Both the park setting and the office experience offered me opportunities to discover new things, which made my visit memorable and worthwhile.
Another pleasant surprise was the pricing. Often when you have such a good experience, you expect the cost to be high, but here the prices were actually very fair and reasonable. It felt like excellent value for the quality of the experience provided.
Overall, I am really glad I decided to come here. Between the easy parking, the enjoyable atmosphere, the learning opportunities, and the fair prices, it was an experience that exceeded my expectations. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a positive and enriching place to spend their time.
