Loris Spotting Night Safari

Join us for an extraordinary Loris Night Safari in the quiet wilderness beyond the buffer zones of Wilpattu National Park, where you get a rare opportunity to witness the elusive slender loris in its natural habitat. This is one of Sri Lanka’s most unique wildlife experiences, enjoyed by only a very small percentage of travellers worldwide, making it truly special for wildlife enthusiasts and photographers.

This 2–3 hour guided night experience combines both jeep travel and walking exploration, giving you a closer and more immersive encounter with the forest environment. You will first travel by safari jeep through selected routes and high-possibility zones, and then continue on foot along quiet jungle trails where loris activity is more likely. As the forest comes alive after dark, patience and silence are essential as you enter the hidden world of nocturnal primates.

During the jeep section of the safari, we focus on key wildlife areas such as forest edges, water-adjacent zones, and boundary regions where nocturnal movement is often higher. For the walking experience, carefully selected trails are used based on field knowledge and recent wildlife activity to increase the chances of encountering slender loris in their natural habitat.

Accompanied by an experienced safari driver and a professional naturalist with over 10 years of expertise, this safari ensures both safety and expert guidance. The naturalist helps identify movement, interpret animal behaviour, and guide you through likely loris habitats, while the driver ensures safe transport to and from the walking trail locations.
