We had a wonderful time! Thank you so much for this memorable experience of beautiful Sri Lanka. The itinerary was really great!
Cisero, our driver, did an excellent job. We felt safe as he drove through the mountains, countryside, coast, towns and cities. We had lunch and dinner in very good places. He also kept the car clean and tidy throughout the trip.
Our driver Sisira was first class. He took us on a wonderful tour across Sri Lanka ensuring we saw all the sights we expected to see and, despite challenging driving conditions, we felt safe at all times. Kandy, Ella and Ayala National Park were all well worth seeing. The drive from Yala along to Dondra Point and then up the west coast was equally spectacular. The only negative was that the quality of some of the accommodation was not as good as we have had on previous Viator tours.
We had a fantastic experience on this 5-day tour of Sri Lanka. The trip was very well organised and made it possible to see many of the country’s major highlights in a short amount of time. Communication with the company was excellent throughout and they were always responsive and helpful.
Our driver, Nirmal, was outstanding — friendly, knowledgeable, and always professional. He shared great insights along the way and was a very safe and reliable driver, which made the journey even more enjoyable.
The hotels arranged for the tour were decent and comfortable throughout the trip. While there is a fair amount of driving involved, this is to be expected given how much is covered in just five days. Overall, I would strongly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see and do as much as possible in Sri Lanka with limited time.
Amazing time our driver Pradeep Ravindra was very informative, drove exceptionally well and kept us safe
The trip was a beautiful experience, where we could visit the south of the island even not as profoundly as it deserves to because we spent a lot time traveling in car.
The visit to Yala safari doesn’t worth the cost and the time you spent in it as it was plenty of cars and we could watch almost no animals at all, no elephants, even it is supposed that there are hundreds.
The hotels were only good, once we had to asked to change rooms because the bathroom was absolutely dirty.
Be careful and have some cash because if you want to have dinner in one of the hotels (you will have to , as sometimes they are so far away from any village) they don’t accept payment by credit card.
Take in account that you only pay for the transfers and bed and breakfast; the rest of expenses are on your account which makes your tour 30 % more expensive than the initial price.
The best thing, our driver, which is not a guide, Sisi, who was so nice and helpful, a 10/10

El viaje fue una bonita experiencia, donde pudimos visitar el sur de la isla, aunque no tan a fondo como se merece, ya que pasamos mucho tiempo viajando en coche.
La visita al safari de Yala no compensa el coste ni el tiempo empleado, ya que había muchísimos coches y casi no pudimos ver ningún animal, ni elefantes, aunque se supone que hay cientos.
Los hoteles estaban únicamente bien; una vez tuvimos que pedir que nos cambiaran de habitación porque el baño estaba completamente sucio.
Ten cuidado y lleva algo de efectivo, porque si quieres cenar en uno de los hoteles (tendrás que hacerlo, ya que a veces están muy lejos de cualquier población) no aceptan tarjetas de crédito.
Ten en cuenta que solo pagas los traslados y el alojamiento y desayuno; el resto de los gastos corren de tu cuenta, lo que encarece el tour un 30 % respecto al precio inicial.
Lo mejor, nuestra conductor, Sisi, que no es guía, fue muy amable y servicial: un 10/10.
Wildlife, Temple's, Culture... All of these in abundance with a five star driver that spoke to us about the above and gave us experiences that we wouldn't have thought of looking at if we had tried doing it yourself. Roshan gave us plenty to think about whilst journeying between attractions. He has a real passion for his job, and taught us about the trees and plants whilst driving, taking his time to stop and point out things that were not on the itinerary. When we went into the national wildlife park, he spoke with the driver and told him not to follow the group, but to veer away from them and to take a slow drive to not make much noise. The reward was seeing a baby elephant and it's mum, and a leopard cross the road in front of us. At Hikkaduwa he told to walk left on the beach where whilst paddling our feet, turtles swam amongst us. Then releasing baby turtles back into the ocean at sunset. If we could ask for anything different.....we should have done 10 days to see the north and east of the island.

Wow, what a jam packed schedule full of fun varied trips. Throughly recommend this, was a tight schedule so exhausting but amazing. Such a difference between one place in Sri Lanka to next, this offered a massive variety from beach to mountains, fancy temples to surfer Boho coastal towns. Loved Ella and my visit to Yala National Park, seeing not only 1 but 3 leopards, realise how extremely lucky I was.
My private driver, Pradeep was super knowledgeable and attentive on my trip and I felt looked after. Big recommendation from me.
The trip was enjoying and very informative, we had a clean private car with a very Cool 😎 tour guide Mr. Chandra Kumar
He was very honest, understanding, and helpful guy. and he really made our trip.
We have visited 5 cities in 5 days with a very compressed program and we almost covered everything panned, but it was somehow exhosting.
The hotels were ok, but not usually up to standard.
So far we feel we have got what more than we paid for.
Once again wouldn't have been enjoying without Kumar.
