It is a very relaxing experience while enjoying the scenery by overlooking both Sigiriya and Pidurangala Rocks. You can decide which session (morning sunrise/evening sunset) you want to experience depending on your travel plan. We are using a catamaran and you can sit on the deck before starting the activity. Up to 6 members can sit comfortably on the deck. I will be providing life jackets for your safety. I will tell you the stories about the history behind Sigiriya and Pidurangala when those places were occupied by the King Kashyapa (473-491 AD) and also by the monks. Pidurangala was the mein temple in 5th C.AD therefore a lot of activities happened in between Sigiriya and Pidurangala. We can discuss those as well while enjoying the vibe. Also you can observe about 40 water-birds along with their behaviours. We can take a note or list down their names by looking in the bird guide book. The scenery is the main attraction of the boat ride. It is really beautiful!

What are people saying about Sri Lanka

LilianaQuiteria_D, Apr 2026

Unforgettable experience

We had an amazing whale watching experience! The staff were incredibly friendly and made sure we were comfortable at all times, offering plenty of food and drinks throughout the trip. We saw so many dolphins, which was already fantastic, but spotting whales proved to be more challenging. While all the other boats had already returned to the harbor, our captain refused to give up. He continued navigating the waters, determined to find whales—and he did! By that point, I think most of the passengers had lost hope, but suddenly, the whale finally appeared. It was truly an unforgettable experience, and we are so grateful to the entire team for their perseverance and dedication in not giving up on the search. Thank you for such a special and memorable day!

Full day Safari - Yala National Park - 04.30 am to 06.00 pm with - Janaka safari

Fleur_V, Apr 2026

Full day safari

Yesterday we had a full-day safari with Ish. He picked us up from our apartment in the morning, and from there we drove to the safari. We chose to focus on spotting leopards for the first two hours, which allowed us to see them multiple times. After that, we saw many other animals. During the safari, we were served a typical Sri Lankan breakfast and lunch, which were very tasty! Definitely recommended.

Udawalawe National Park | Private Safari Tour

Oliver_A, Apr 2026

Amazing safari with Jayashan

Me and my partner did the half day safari in the afternoon and had the best experience possible. We saw around 20-30 elephants, crocodiles, buffalo, a ton of birds and some amazing plants. Our driver Jayashan was amazing at spotting the animals and knew so much! I would definitely recommend both the trip and especially Jayashan. Book this trip - you will not be disappointed.

Yala Safari Private Day Trip with Return Transport -All Inclusive

Dylan_S, Apr 2026

Great trip to Yala!

This was a great trip that we’d definitely recommend if you’re staying near Galle. We managed to see leopards, elephants, lots of bird varieties, monkeys, deer, buffalo, crocodiles, and lizards, just to name a few. We didn’t think we’d be able to see so much in a day trip, so it was definitely worth it!

Amazing Food Tour!

EXCELLENT food and come on an empty stomach! I’m salivating just thinking about how diverse and delicious all the options were. The hoppers were great, especially the coconut one! I was picked up promptly and taken to get a coconut which I had never seen an orange/yellow variety before! My guide K had the best attitude and was very patient!

Colombo Private Tuk-Tuk City Tour with All Entry Fees Included

Bob_M, Mar 2026

Great city introduction!

Our tuk tuk driver, Ranjith, was passionate about sharing information and history of Colombo & Sri Lanka. He was knowledgeable of the sites visited and gave us ample opportunity to photograph and visit each site closer. His tour of the maritime museum was especially rich in the colonisation history of Sri Lanka, including the history of the country’s top industries. The gemstone outlet provided a good overview of the history of gemstone mining in Sri Lanka and gave us space to peruse their products without pressuring us to purchase. Ranjith kindly offered to drop us off anywhere in the city at the end of the tour. Thanks for an excellent introduction to Colombo 😁

2h Bentota River Safari: Crocodiles, Monkeys, Mangrove & more

Paul_C, Mar 2026

Beautiful with wildlife

Beautiful setting. The mangroves were spectacular (much better than Madu River!!), well looked after, plenty of flexibility re start times. To be fair, we didn't see a huge amount of wildlife but this was a combo of chance and at some tines, too many boats vying for position. We dud have an issue, which shoukd be resolved- we booked from our hotel in Kalutara, believing that pick up was included. Fair enough that it was shown, but it was only 1r hours before that we were quoted £30 for pick up. They then became a bit difficult and refused a refund quoting T&Cs. We initially cancelled but went ahead. RECOMMENDATION - IF OUTSIDE FREE PICK UP, ARRANGE OWN TRANSPORT - TUKTUK ABOUT £5-6 each way.

Wilpattu National Park Jeep Safari from Negombo / Waikkal (All Inclusive)

Jolyn_G, Feb 2026

Amazing Wilpattu Safari – Highly Recommended!

We had an incredible experience on our Wilpattu safari from Negombo. Our guide was exceptional – knowledgeable, friendly, and really made the wildlife experience come alive. The day was long, starting with a 4 AM hotel pickup and returning around 7 PM, but it was absolutely worth it. The drive from Negombo to Wilpattu took over 3 hours, and our driver was excellent – safe, smooth, and very accommodating. The highlight? Spotting not one, but two leopards in the wild! The park itself is stunning and less crowded than other national parks, which made the experience feel truly special. If you’re considering a safari from Negombo, this is the one to do. Incredible wildlife, a fantastic guide, and a memorable adventure from start to finish.

Very good service. The vehicle came at the promised time and the driver/guide was able to navigate us so that we were able to see a Leopard, a tusker, other elephants and so many other wildlife. The vehicle was in good condition. All in all a great Safari experience

NY Helicopter Tour: New York City Skyline from New Jersey

Jake_R, Dec 2025

A well worth, once in a...

A well worth, once in a lifetime sort of experience. We are from the UK and were staying in central NYC. The train from NY Penn to Linden was easy to navigate which can be daunting at first. After letting heliNY know we would be getting the train they offer their free shuttle service from the train station to the experience, and back again. 10/10 would recommend. The actual flight itself was something special.

NY Helicopter Tour: Manhattan Highlights

Michelle_C, Apr 2025

Fantastic helicopter ride. Excellent staff

We booked the ride as a special treat as our children were turning 18 and 21. We all loved the experience and our pilot, David, was fantastic. Funny and interesting commentary. Also shout out to another great staff member who looked after us. I'm really sorry but I've forgotten his name, but pretty sure he was called Emerson or Emelyn.
