Excellent trip! From start to finish, everything was excellent. Malidu from Holiday Lanka Sri Lanka was really helpful and such a friendly person. He explained all the details of this trip to me once my reservation was confirmed. My tour driver Dinuka, was a very professional and friendly person. I enjoyed being with him. Highly recommend this tour if anyone is looking for a private tour in Sri Lanka for 5 days.Show more
