"The Yala National Park is famous for spotting leopards but... it's also the most crowded one.
The experience doing the safari in Yala National Park was not fully satisfactory because of the overflow of cars, which can disturb the wildlife (only 1 car is disturbing the animals, but imagine lots of them together in one place like in the picture).
I understand that tourists (I include myself that day) want to see a leopard, but I could not enjoy doing it like that.
So, bare in mind that yes, it is a beautiful park and the one that offers more chances to see leopards, but also is the most popular and overcrowded one. "
