Tented Safari Camping in Sri Lanka’s Wild Reserves

Sleep Under Stars, Wake with the Wild

Sri Lanka offers a spectrum of diverse experiences within its borders, boasting landscapes that range from flat grasslands to dense jungles - all home to different types of wildlife. Our natural beauty demands an immersive experience that allows you to truly take it all in and do justice to its allure. Imagine spending a night surrounded by the sounds of nature and the presence of the wildlife in that area, all while enjoying basic conveniences and modern comforts - even a touch of luxury. One of the most popular ways to experience Sri Lanka’s wilderness is through tented safari camping, where visitors can spend a night under the stars while being protected from the elements by a tent. These kinds of camps typically feature a simple tent or camping site in an outdoor location surrounded by wildlife, offering only a minimal barrier between you and nature, where you’ll fall asleep and wake up to the sounds of nature. Depending on your preference for comfort, you can choose your ideal location, accommodation, and level of adventure. For those who seek a more refined experience, luxurious options are also available, including air-conditioned accommodations with modern bathrooms, while still retaining the essence of outdoor adventure. Glamping (glamorous camping) has been a growing trend around the world, opening up a world of excitement for nature lovers without compromising on comfort. If there's any place you wish to experience up close and personally with a tented safari camping experience, we can make that happen for you.

Featured Experiences

Yala National Park

Being one of the most significant and popular national parks in the country, Yala offers facilities for tented safari camping ranging from different levels of convenience. There are dedicated spots inside the park for camping, where you can fall asleep surrounded by wildlife who, while not docile, are scared off by human presence. You can get a truly immersive wildlife experience here without compromising on basic comforts.

Udawalawe National Park

Udawalawe National Park is famous for its large elephant population, making for an exciting destination for tented safari camping. Despite its high wildlife population, it is possible to enjoy a safe experience while accompanied by professional service providers and experienced guides. You can opt for a simple bush camp or a more luxurious glamping option within Udawalawe; both options offer a unique and natural experience in the wild.

Wilpattu National Park

While tented safari camping inside Wilpattu National Park is not encouraged due to the high density of wildlife roaming around freely, there are designated buffer zones that allow for camping in the wild, but with enhanced safety. This experience is slightly more off the beaten path compared to Yala and Udawalawe. Here, you can take in the diverse ecosystems in complete silence as the park’s lower visitor numbers make for a more intimate safari experience. As a prominent national park, Wilpattu allows you to select the level of comfort you wish to have during your tented safari camping experience with many options available.
