We had an excellent 4-day tour with Danesh, who made the entire experience smooth, safe, and stress-free. He was friendly, patient, flexible, and always willing to adjust plans or add stops along the way. He coordinated local guides, so we never had to think about logistics. He consistently went above and beyond and made sure every part of the itinerary ran smoothly. Highly recommend Danesh to anyone visiting Sri Lanka—professional, kind, and truly committed to making your trip memorable. The tour was amazing, and we saw so much in 4 days, going from about 8a-6p (earlier on the first day and later the last day). Overall, the hotel and meals worked well for a fast-paced itinerary. The accommodations throughout the tour were spacious, comfortable, clean, friendly service, and generally well-matched to each stop, the overall quality is mid-range (3-star). Meals at the hotels were convenient and plentiful, more about practicality than standout dining. Only complaint is the last night at the hotel in Colombo, music in the area is extremely loud and can hear it clearly in your room when you're trying to sleep after a packed 4-days before traveling home.Show more

Hey guys, If you want some genuine constructive feedback, then I shall need more space than is available here, as I had a number of positives and a number of negatives that I'd be happy to share with you. So send me an email address to which I can forward a constructive email and I'll be happy to do so. If I don't hear back from you, I will assume you are not really interested to hear anything negative. Cheers, NeilShow more

  Why single cost for 5 days tour is double the price, as I am joining guarantee group tour additional should be hotel room only?
- Apple Vacations Pvt LtdOperator•Written December 2025

  Is it really expensive for single supplement fee for book a single room for 4 nights if I need to pay 290 USD? The cost which you gave us is not included with entrance tickets for sightseeing right? Please kindly tell me how much for the entrance tickets for sightseeing which listed in your itinerary!!!
- Apple Vacations Pvt LtdOperator•Written December 2025
  If you are travelling alone you have to pay USD 840 for single room and yes above cost is without entrance tickets, entrance fees would come around $ 220.

  So to make the 7:30-9:30 AM pick up I will need to start tour on 18th and spend night in colombo. My flight on the 22nd leaves at 16:00PM-so can I get late drop off to airport at the end f the tour? Can I get the hotels? are they 3 star? 4 star?

  Joshua
  Traveler•Written March 2025
  1) If I arrive at the airport at 2PM am I too late to do the Day 1 itinerary? Should I stay overnight in in a hotel in colombo and start the tour on 18th so that I do not miss anything? Then, can you pick me up from a hotel and take me to dambulla? 2) in the brochure it says that the hotels are all 4 star? Can you give me the names? 3) Are entrance fees to temples/attractions included? If not, how much extra am I going to have to pay? 4) I sleep with a CPAP machine at night so all the hotel rooms need to have a socket next to the bed so that I can plug in my machine-do they?
- Apple Vacations Pvt LtdOperator•Written March 2025
  1- Yes, preferred to stay at Colombo at start to tour on next day, Even if we pick up from airport and start the tour at 02.00pm, we can do one or two sightseeing only and then we can manage to do the all the sights on day 02. 2- Hotel names- Colombo - Fairway or similar hotel, Sigiriya - Kassapa lIon rock or similar hotel, Kandy - Topaz or Similar, Ella - 88th Ella or Oakray Ella Gap. 3- Entrance fees are not included on the package - $ 230, Other than shopping and lunch need to pay directly. 4- Sure we request, that to all the hotels, or otherwise we can provide power extention socket at the all the hotels.

  1) Do you pay for the train to Ella? Do i have a spot in the train? What if there is flooding? 2) what do I have to pay- for 4 star hotel, single person.
- Apple Vacations Pvt LtdOperator•Written March 2025
  1 - Yes, We will reserve the train tickets and if there is any floor or bad weather train will be cancell and will use road to Ella. (Still we try to offer short train atleast, if possible). 2 - all the hotel mentioned above is 4* except in Ella, As Ella city don't have much hotel options. Ella can be upgrade to Luxury hotel if you want. For the upgrade cost would come around $ 80 hotel in Ella, can be paid on arrival as well.

  Traveler•Written January 2025
  I just want to clarify that the tour will go ahead, even if for some reason I ended up the only starter. Naturally I would assume I would then just be accompanied by a combined guide/driver. I'm a very experienced and fit 70 year old Aussie traveller who has visited most of the world and I'm very flexible and able to fit in. But I need to be absolutely sure before I lock in my flights and pay the air fares.
- Apple Vacations Pvt LtdOperator•Written January 2025
  surely you can lock the flights and even one person book the tour on the day, we will proceed the tour.
