A great taster for what Sri Lanka has to offer.
We spent three weeks in Sri Lanka staying in five different locations. Each place was different and gave us a good insight into many aspects of the country. As a result we will probably go back to explore further.

An absolute gem of a holiday
My sister and I had the loveliest time exploring Sri Lanka. Our guide Saman Kaluarachchi was excellent, so knowledgeable and enthusiastic. I loved the birds and creatures and he was always on the ball to show me new sightings. The canal cycle ride was the best ever fun but climbing Sigiriya the absolute highlight. All our hotels were special, serice always excellent, food SO good.....and what surprised me most was how safe I felt when wandering ...

Dear Maria,
So pleased to hear you had a fabulous holiday! We think the impromptu stops along the way and the small personal hotels are so important! We hope to hear from you again for a trip to another of the countries in which we specialise.

Fantastic personalized vacation in Sri Lanka
16 days with 4 nights in the cultural triangle, 3 nights in the tea country, and ending with 7 nights on the beach south of Galle. We had two activities each day in the cultural triangle where we visited fantastic ancient history sites, had a half day safari, and visited local farms without feeling rushed. With a personal driver/guide, the busy first part of our vacation was still completely free from stress. The service at all the hotels ...

We had two activities each day in the cultural triangle where we visited fantastic ancient history sites, had a half day safari, and visited local farms without feeling rushed. With a personal driver/guide, the busy first part of our vacation was still completely free from stress. The service at all the hotels was outstanding. The food was excellent everywhere and the local curries were particularly well suited for my vegan wife! The people were very friendly. At one famous temple we were invited to eat lunch with a Buddhist monk. On Christmas day, we took a bike ride through the tea country and throughout the ride, we received friendly waves and greetings of “Hello” or “Merry Christmas” from dozens of people on the sides of the road and from people passing us both directions in Tuk-Tuks.
Rating for tour operator:The personalized itinerary met our needs perfectly as we saw everything we wanted to and more while minimizing hotel changes. Our driver/guide was the best as he had excellent English and in depth knowledge to share. Everything worked as planned and the service was outstanding throughout.
Hi Stephen,
I am so pleased you and your family had such a good trip. You seem to have really fallen in the Sri Lankan people!

Sri Lanka - everything we hoped for and more.
The cricket at Galle was the main draw for us but the diversity of this island, it’s food, people and fascinating mixture of religions and cultures will stay in our memories and hearts forever.

Rating for tour operator:Experience Travel Group were excellent from my very first enquiry regarding the cricket to post holiday feedback. Taking into account our requirements they assembled an itinerary which met our varying needs, provided useful information before departure, had very knowledgable people on the ground in Sri Lanka and made us feel that our needs were paramount. I would have no hesitation in using them again.
