Customer Comments

we had a wonderful time thank you very much. Your team were marvelous and looked after us beautifully - the food was delicious and facilities just as we expected from your website. The setting of the camp was very beautiful - so overall it really was a highlight of our trip to Sri Lanka.

"The trip that you arranged for us was very well organised! Everything was arranged from the hotel to the driver to the paperwork. Thanks! I also have to say that the driver was very good. He knew exactly the way to position the jeep in such a way that we were able to shoot some nice photographs. I've done more safari's in the past and it isn't always the case that drivers know how to do this, so my compliments for that.

But if we can return sometime to Sri Lanka and are able to do a safari in Yala, we will definitely think about EcoTeam. Many thanks."

Jan Fleischmann, the Co-photographer / Author of the coffee table book Jaguar / Tiger / Lejon / Leopard  published in Sweden, visited Yala in early July 2009.

He managed to capture a number of amazing moments of the jungle law survival of the fittest in practice!

Just one such incident is penned as follows;

The peacock mistook a hawk eagle as a friendly sort, and eventually became a prey for the eagle…though in a few minutes, the peacock became a prey of a leopard who appeared out of the blue…
