Arriving in Sri Lanka & Epic Safari Camp, Spotting Leopards SRI LANKA SERIES

We are in Sri Lanka, the Coconut Island! We will take you on our 3-week adventure through this amazing country. Starting with a Safari in Wilpattu National Park to spot Leopards!
After arriving in Sri Lanka, we spent the night in Negombo, heading to Wilpattu National Park first thing in the morning to spot some leopards.
Our stay was called Big Game Wilpattu right on the border of Wilpattu National Park. In the afternoon, we went on an amazing Safari trip with a Jeep & our guide. We were on a mission to spot as many animals as possible on our tour, including the famous leopards of Sri Lanka. Were we successful?
DISCLAIMER: We did this adventure in 2022 when the Economic Crisis in Sri Lanka just started.

This amazing.. btw when did you recorded this video? coz I noticed most of you are wearing a mask..

[@rootsabroadtravel]

Thank you! This was in 2022, during the Economic Crisis. We experienced the country at a very vulnerable time.

[@faz2352]

Thanks for sharing this, how did you get to Wilpattu from Colombo and what was the name of the glamping park?

[@rootsabroadtravel]

Hey, we opted for a Grab ride to the camp, since there were no direct alternatives at the time. We don't know if that changed by now. Wasn't expensive though. The camp is called: 'Big Game - Wilpattu by eco team'. Thank you for watching!🤗

[@faz2352]

@@rootsabroadtravel thanks so much, did you get a Grab from the park to your next destination as well?

[@rootsabroadtravel]

Hey, the camp organized some cheap Transport for us and we took a tuktuk to Anuradhapura then. They can also organize cars if you'd rather want that. You can check our description in the video for the camp and some more info & the Anuradhapura vid if you like🤗

[@user-yd6sj3pe4j]

I come a cross so many times leopards The next town my uncle was a railway station master ( monkey always bothers u ) No idea That’s Dal. Kind of lentils

[@rootsabroadtravel]

Yes, we know! We heard from so many people they saw Leopards, I guess we just had bad luck that time 😭 More reason to come back to Sri Lanka though :P

[@RAJMAN181]

You two were upgraded to Mahoora camp which has a front seating area and the better camp than Big Game Camp, with BBQ dinner and 1/2 safari included for the full board price. How much did you pay for 1 night for all this?

[@damayanthisenanayake8856]

hi, first of all thank you very much for visiting my beautiful island Sri Lanka. can u pls give me the name and the contact details of the safari camp.We are planning to go there. thanks once again. Hope u both had a good time and enjoyed the trip.

[@rootsabroadtravel]

Hey, the camp was called "Big Game - Wilpattu by Eco Team", we booked via their booking link: www.booking.com/hotel/lk/big-game-camp-willpattu.en.html?aid=2404401&no_rooms=1&group_adults=2

[@RAJMAN181]
