We spent two magical nights camping in Yala with Kulu and can honestly say it was the experience of a lifetime with a multitude of memories that will stay with us forever! The game drives were amazing. We were lucky to see leopards on 3 out of our 4 drives. And although we have traveled extensively to see wildlife around... More

Forget about Sigiriya, forget about Dambulla and the beaches where you cannot swim most time of the year round: Kulu Safari is the absolut highlight in Sri Lanka. I have been with Kulu Safari six times (twice in Uda Walawe and four times in Yala). The tented camp is of high standard with details that are faboulus. The tents are... More

The 2 nights that we spent at Yala National Park with Kulu Safari’s was the best experience of our holiday. It was fabulous, the location of the camp was beside a lovely stream and beach which provided a place to relax and view wildlife close up including white bellied sea eagles nesting in the tree above our tent. We stayed... More

If you love animals, this is an experience you will never forget. Don't expect the leopards to be around every corner, but in 3 days we saw 7 leopards and even more crocodiles, elephants etc. up close. What sets Kulu Safaris apart, is that the staff is very helpful and prepared for EVERYTHING. They allowed me to charge the battery... More

It was the monkey calls, it's always the monkeys. The mood in the vehicle had become lethargic, but now everything changed the tension was electric. Our guides listened, more calls, we began to reverse past one dirt track- nothing to see, to the next dirt track. There she was a fully grown female leopard, scent marking the trail. We followed...

Perfect hospitality in a perfect setting. Some of the hardest working staff in Sri Lanka made this an unforgettable safari experience. We saw every animal that had been promised and enjoyed every moment of our three days. A full jungle camping experience made luxurious by the forethought of the company and a great team on site.

Our 2 nights in Yala National Park were fantastic. In our tent on the bank of the river and in the expert hands of Manju and his team, we settled into our jungle existence instantly. Every detail was brilliantly planned. It's the best way to see Yala. Off you set and the game drive starts immediately. The food was lovely.... More

Due to heavy rains, we were unable to stay on the original campsite along the river, but the set-up next to a pond was geat and enjoyed listening to the... More

As the location in the park was temporarily changed away from the river due to the previous floods the camp didn't have the view I understood the normal camp has but it was set up nicely in the woods. The tents were not luxurious but of good quality and very nicely set up. The food in the camp was great,... More

My wife and I visited Sri Lanka for the first time in order to attend a friend's wedding and while we were there we decided it would be good to spend a couple of days on safari. So, based on reviews here and personal recomendations from friends in Sri Lanka, we chose to spend a couple of days in the... More
