Big Game - Yala By Eco Team

一次很神奇的旅行體驗，我們去到露營地是晚上九點了，吉普車顛簸的那十幾分鍾感覺差點要被賣了，到了之後發現了新大陸，加上我們沒有吃飯，BBQ的味道雖然一般 但是吃飯的時候低頭有很多小動物陪伴，抬頭是滿眼星空，很有氛圍感

Stayed one night, wish it was more. My tent was 2 single beds on stretchers . Very comfortable and really clean. The shower had hot water and a added bonus to tenting. Water provided as well as a fan. The lovely touches were lighting, outside flame lighting and incense burning after eating our evening meal. Which was lovely sitting outside with candles and great service. If you want security you have a padlock to put through the zips on the tent. Breakfast was served on time with fresh fruit and a omlete. Tea and coffee is available to help yourself. Beautifully kept grounds, clean, swept and very inviting. Monkeys in the trees in the morning .Definitely would recommend and we did the safari. Saw a leopard and 2 elephants with tusks which is pretty rare. Loved every minute of our stay and safari.

Extremely happy with the stay here. This is an authentic jungle camp experience following eco-tourism guidelines. The tented rooms are simple but very comfortable and all meals served were delicious. The best part of this camp are the staff - everyone is so attentive (asking about food preferences) and hospitable. The safaris organized (with guides) were very good. All in all, go for this experience - you will not regret it. Some things to take note of: the camp is situated 15-20 min from the National Park gate so it's a bit interior. The WiFi connection is less if you're someone who needs it badly but phone signal is fine. If travelling as a family of 4 adults, recommend taking 2 separate tents versus a family tent. A family tent for 2 adults and 2 children is fine.

PEOPLE THEY WORK THERE STOLE MY NIKON CAMERA AND ALSO 500US $ It was a really hard experience! Never ever go there! I’m a guide and group leader from a group from Germany. When we arrived they gave us many instructions but nobody told us to use lockers for belonging so we felt safe in this camp! For me there is rule that a tent is a safe space! We just went to dinner after 2 hours my belongings got stolen, also money from one person from my group, she was in the tent next to me! I really hope they will learn that honesty lasts longer than to lie and not treating humans in a right way! Even I understand that they’re thing we have better karma, maybe we have but thing about the reason!

The tents are very comfortable with fan and electricity. Basis shower and toilet. The cam is very clean and Wi-Fi is available in public areas. Tea and coffee available all day. Games and balls available to play. Breakfast was freshly prepared with fruit and eggs. The only downside was the evening meal- they provide a bbq of chicken, pork, fish or veg at a fixed price- so you either buy an overpriced meal or don’t eat and take your own snacks. They provide wooden box to store food and a fridge for your drinks and had no objection to you eating and drinking at their tables.

Big Game Camp in Yala is ideal for anyone looking for authentic jungle camp experience but with slightly better amenities. The camp has a tent based setup with just a fan and an attached commode and bath area in the tent. But the overall look is still aesthetic. Activities like bonfire with candlelight dinner, evening and night excursions, and relaxation area within the camp make the stay special. Staff is extremely polite, friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. Booking a jungle safari for Yala with Big Game is a good idea because it will make the entire process smooth for you with door-to-door pick up and drop and packed breakfast for the safari. A few things to note for your stay: 1. Carry handheld fans if you are travelling during the hot season because the camp only has floor fans including the tent. 2. Carry mosquito repellent sprays 3. Don’t carry too many snacks/confectioneries to the camp because you will not be able to keep them with you in the tent. Team has lockers and a fridge where you can store any eatable items you bring. 4. Water in the taps is hard so think before using too much soap or washing hair. 5. There is no a la carté menu to order food. You will have to eat what camp kitchen serves. They serve a 3 course meal for lunch and dinner with an option to choose between vegetarian and non-vegetarian meal. 6. For less than 4 people, try to avoid booking a private safari. Most jungle safari jeeps have 6 seats and it’s a waste of money to book an entire jeep for just 2-3 people.
