Wildlife Holidays in Sri Lanka
Working with the best specialists on the ground in Sri Lanka we are able to create incredible wildlife holiday itineraries that showcase the diversity of the island's wildlife across a wide range of habitats.
On a nature holiday to Sri Lanka with us you can watch whales in the morning, and either be on the beach in the afternoon and cruising for crocodiles in the evening, or perhaps up in the cloudforests of Sinharaja finding rare owls or gazing at lizards. You can discover the high moorland grasslands of Horton Plains, the home to some of Sri Lanka's rarest endemic birds and where leopard roam. Equally you can spend time seeking leopards, birds and other wildlife in the better-known wildlife reserves of Wilpattu, Yala or Kumana. Less visited destinations include Wasgamuwa National Park where you can enjoy the butterflies and even help with elephant conservation and monitor human-elephant conflict; or Polonnaruwa where you may spend a morning walking with researchers among their troupes of habituated primates. The island is a paradise for bird watching whilst for herpetologists too there are so many endemic species to discover, and we have access to the specialists to help you whatever your interest.
