Yala Evening Safari | Evening Wildlife & Sunset Tours 2026 updated
An evening safari in Yala National Park offers a unique experience as the day cools down and the golden evening light blankets the vast wilderness. It is a beautiful time to explore the park, breathe in the fresh nature air, and witness the stunning landscapes of dry monsoon forests and lagoons. While many hope to see rare animals like the leopard or sloth bear, it is important to remember that Yala is a massive natural habitat and sightings depend on many factors including the time of day, weather conditions, the specific forest situation, and a bit of luck. While sightings of rare species can be a rare situation, the park is full of life, from majestic elephants to vibrant birdlife. We provide high-quality 4x4 safari jeeps and professional drivers for these evening tours, with the option to include wildlife trackers or guides upon request for a deeper look into the ecosystem. We offer free of charge pickups from any hotel or stay in Thissamaharama, Kataragama, Palatupana, Kirinda, Yoda Kandiya, and Weerawila. Current 2026 official entrance fees for foreign adults are approximately $42 to $45 USD, foreign child (6-12 years) is around $20 USD and under 6 years child is free (Fee for SAARC Adult is around $40 USD). Our competitive jeep hire for evening sessions starts from $25 to $60 USD. Do not miss the chance to experience the fresh air and natural beauty of Yala at sunset.
