Wild Lanka Trust Launches “The R20 Expedition” — 18 Days. 20 Elusive Species. Zero Compromise.
We are incredibly proud to officially unveil our premier, flagship conservation journey: The R20 Expedition: Sri Lanka. This is not a standard safari—it is an elite, low-impact tracking journey for serious wildlife enthusiasts, backed by decades of meticulous field research.
If you have ever dreamed of witnessing the island’s most secretive creatures while directly funding their survival, this is your calling.
What Makes The R20 Expedition Unique?
Built from the ground up to challenge traditional tourism, this 18-day expedition offers an unparalleled wildlife experience:
- The “Elusive 20” Guarantee: Leveraging decades of specialized field data, we offer guaranteed encounters with Sri Lanka’s 20 most elusive and secretive wildlife species, including the Fishing Cat, Indian Pangolin, Giant Flying Squirrel, Red Slender Loris, and the Sri Lankan Chameleon.
- Observation-Led Routing: Forget rigid tourist tracks. We dynamically adjust our park entries daily based on real-time tracking data to place you exactly where the action is.
- Elite Naturalists & Low Impact: Our expert trekking and observations are led by deeply experienced wildlife naturalists using premium optical scopes, strictly adhering to a protocol of minimalist disturbance to the animals.
- Premium Comfort: Track hard by day, rest deeply by night. We guarantee premium 4-star accommodations or luxury glamping every single night on a full-board basis.
