Great tour to experience a lot of the local foods. Romish did a great job showing us the markets and getting us a range of local foods sample. There was a little confusion over the meeting point but once we started the tour it went very smoothly. Highly recommend this for a great food tour.

This was an incredible tour! We felt like it covered all the major highlights and we didn’t feel rushed. Our tour guide Krish was lovely and gave us heaps of good tips along the way too - really friendly guy and safe driver! He spoke really good English so that helped too. The hotels we stayed at were comfortable 3&4 star hotels which was great and in good locations. The places that Krish took us for lunch were all really good places with good food. I especially liked the safari in Udawallawe and the village tour we did at Sigiriya - as part of the village tour we got to have lunch made by the villagers and that was an absolute highlight and really recommend everyone to do the Sigiriya Village tour lunch (I think this was with ‘A+ Tours’). Krish was also able to customise the trip on the spot based on our preferences and even stopped at additional places (like for us to get durian haha). Overall great trip and would highly recommend!

It was a wonderful day out, and both our drivers and guides were superb. Very difficult to fault the experience. We didn’t see leopards, but did see Elephants, Eagles, Water Buffalo, Golden Jackal, Crocodile, various Deer, Mongoose, Monitor Lizzards, and a dazzling array of beautiful birds. Highly recommended and lunch was great!

The best company to work with. As soon as I booked the tour, they contacted me to confirm all details. My driver, Chanaka, was incredible, professional, a great communicator, a very safe driver, punctual, patient, and dedicated to making sure I enjoyed every minute of the trip. He not only provided information but also took my videos and pictures, ensuring I had a great experience.

We would highly recommend this experience. We were picked up from our hotel in Kandy by Charith. He got us safely to the safari and the car was comfortable and bottled water was in the vehicle for us. Which was appreciated on the long journey to Wilpattu. Our driver/guide was very friendly and had an excellent knowledge of the park and the animals. He provided us a delicious breakfast and lunch as well as snacks and drinks throughout the day. The highlight of the day was a very hungry Sloth Bear.

This turned out, after starting pretty nonchalantly, to be a most amazing and epic journey. The high point was our jeep safari in Hurulu, where we encountered a small elephant herd, with a tusker at very close range. The drive-thru through the thickets was amazingly panoramic, and indeed, most adventurous. Then, we visited Dumballa - the rock-cut cave architecture and the Sigirya Rock Fortress are singular attractions par excellence. Amazing, one-of-a-kind sites to visit.

Perera was fantastic - a wealth of information along with all of the sights to go with it. We came in at 12PM, he picked us up with a sign at arrivals, and took us out on a great adventure. We were back to the airport at 6PM, right on time for our next flight.

The day is really cool, but also really, really long. We started at 545am with a 3 hour drive to the cave temples, which require walking up 249 steps. This isn’t bad, but some of the steps on the way down are just a rocky slope. There is a railing but an older lady in our group did have some difficulty. Then, we went on to climb the mountain. We were told it’s about 1250 steps, but this is inaccurate bc once you get up there you’re climbing up and down other stairs. To do this climb, they transferred us to a different guide who only let us stop twice, long enough to grab a photo of each person at the viewpoint. I am prone to heat exhaustion in humid weather like this and could feel myself starting to get affected so I took it upon myself to go much slower. The lunch afterwards was pretty good. Lastly, there’s the option of doing either a village tour or safari. Most of our group chose the safari. You’re transferred to a jeep and are basically off-roading for over two hours on unpaved dirt roads in a park. It was def cool to see elephants and buffalo, but the constant jolting gave me a headache. You’re able to stand up in the jeep to see through the roof, but they put 3 of us in the back and there wasn’t enough room for 3 ppl to comfortably stand. We arrived home at 10:45 — so an incredibly long day. Props to our main guide for driving. He was knowledgeable about the sights and areas, and also really funny. All in all, I’d recommend the tour but def be prepared.
