Andrea arrives early morning April 29th. And wanted to leave on may 4th. Is that possible to do the tour in those dates?

Yes not an issue still you can book the tour. timing can be match for the tour.

Has anyone booked for the Sri Lanka tour or would I be on my own? If there others that have booked can you let me know their approximate age and details? Is it possible to get on a tour a couple of days earlier?

No one Booked this tour on these date but 02 April 2 Pax Booked Exploring Cultural Treasures and Natural Wonders in 5 Days Tour. If Possible you can join to this tour.

Land in Sri Lanka on March 19th at 11:40pm. Would the tour start be optimal for March 20 to March 25 or Should I book for March 21 to 26? Also would this include an airport pick up on March 19th night?

Better to book on 20th So we can do the Colombo city tour and then drop off to Colombo hotel. We will provide the service on the booking date only. ( better you to stay transit hotel by own - so next day we can do the pick up near by airport)

I understand that Sinhala and Tamil new year occur on the 13th and 14th of April in Sri Lanka. These are public holidays, so will the tour be hindered in any way?

Yes, All the tourist service providers continue operations and are well prepared for travelers.

I would like to book one of your tours together with my 12-year old daughter. Before I book I wanted to ask if this tour is suitable for august and if the baby turtles are released into the sea during this time of the year. Also I wanted to ask if this is a group tour.

Turtle can release and only in early morning and evening only, as there is challenges to release in the day time. Its a group tour and it will be operated in English only.

I am planning to travel to Sri Lanka between the 6th and 11 of June I would like a detailed itinerary for this trip including the exact accommodation at that time. I will be travelling alone will it be okay? I would like to stay in paradise beach club or somewhere close to the beach if available

Thank you for the feed back, is this trip popular for solo traveler's or more suitable for family or couple? Are there any additional activities available?

what is total cost for 1 adult + 1 child (8 yrs). also which hotels?

you can take the double room rate, as hotels not offering the Single room + child sharing bed. best option is take double room and on sights you can entrance tickets child rate.

how many people are there on each tour?

group size would be around 02 - 07 people.

Can I request a specific language for our guide?

Additional charges apply for a German-speaking guide.

We had a great 4-night private tour in Sri Lanka with Keerthe as our guide, and he truly made the trip unforgettable. From the moment he picked us up in Colombo, his warm, professional demeanor and deep knowledge of the country set the tone for an amazing adventure. Keerthe expertly navigated us through a packed itinerary, starting with a Colombo city tour featuring Gangaramaya Buddhist Temple and Independence Square, before heading south to Galle. Along the way, he introduced us to unique experiences like the turtle hatchery and the Madu River cruise, complete with a cinnamon-making demo and a ticklish fish foot massage. His thoughtful planning ensured we hit highlights like Galle Fort, whale watching in Mirissa (where we spotted dolphins and a breaching whale), and the scenic 9 Arches Bridge in Ella. He was a steady presence on the winding roads to Ella, Nuwara Eliya, and Kandy, sharing insights about tea plantations, British-era architecture, and local culture. Keerthe’s flexibility shone through when he arranged a train ride over the 9 Arches Bridge, coordinated a tuk-tuk trip to Ambuluwawa Tower, and guided us through the Sacred Tooth Relic Temple in Kandy. His passion for Sri Lanka’s history was evident at Sigiriya Rock, where he explained the ancient palace ruins, and at Dambulla Cave Temple. Beyond his knowledge, Keerthe was patient, accommodating, and attentive—whether arranging an early-morning safari to see elephant herds or ensuring we had time to rest after long drives. The village tour, with its ox cart ride and home-cooked lunch, was a personal favourite. Over 550km and 15 hours of driving, he kept us safe and comfortable. One small suggestion: it would have been helpful to have more clarity upfront about the cost to enter each attraction and whether cash or cards were needed, as this varied from the original tour guidance and caught us off guard a few times. Keerthe made our trip a perfect blend of adventure, education, and relaxation. We’d recommend him to anyone visiting Sri Lanka—thank you, Keerthe, for an exceptional experience!Show more

  Does it still make sense to start the tour on the 23rd or is it better to stay one night in Colombo and start the tout on the 24th?
- Apple Vacations Pvt LtdOperator•Written August 2025
  On arrival day there is no much sights to be cover, only Colombo highlights to be covered. If you could arrive bit earlier it would be better, but still we can arrange the things as per the 03.00pm arrival time and on arrival day we will provide Colombo stay, its included on the package, you don't need to book. So we can start the tour on 23 no issue at all.
