Before you book
Why pickup is at 04:00 – 04:30
Yala's gates open at first light, and that is when the park is best: animals move at dawn, then rest once the day heats up. Getting you to the gate for opening means starting in the dark from South coast.
We confirm your exact pickup time the evening before, so you are never guessing.
