Dine at Tableau, as our chefs guide you through a menu that is as creative as is delicious.
Explore the wilderness that is Yala on a game drive guided by our passionate team of rangers. As dusk begins to set, post-game drive sundowners and canapes take place on the rugged beach overlooking the Indian Ocean.
