  Great tour for travellers are new to Sri Lanka - you get a wide variety of experiences from the city to the beach and the mountains. It wasn’t too taxing either if you are looking for a relaxing trip as the tour is well paced with two to three highlights per day. Having a good driver cum guide will also elevate the experience - special shout out to Aruna Dasanayake for taking good care of us and sharing more about his country and culture. Comfortable and clean car. Hotels wise a little dated but clean.Show more

  Round trip through Sri Lanka - an unforgettable experience! Our nine-day round trip through Sri Lanka was a real highlight! We were warmly welcomed from day one and were able to discover the beauty and diversity of the "Pearl of the Indian Ocean". The fortress of Galle was particularly impressive - a wonderful start. The jeep safari in Yala National Park was an exciting adventure, and in Ella we enjoyed breathtaking landscapes and relaxing moments. The drive to Kandy took us through picturesque areas and our guide gave us an exciting insight into Sri Lanka's culture, history and Buddhism. The Sigiriya rock fortress and the temples of Dambulla were the crowning glory of this impressive trip. Our German-speaking tour guide was excellent - safe, competent and very knowledgeable about flora, fauna and the life of the locals. Thanks to his air-conditioned vehicle and his pleasant manner, the entire tour was interesting, relaxed and stress-free. The guide was punctual and reliable at all times and the airport transfer was also impeccably good! In summary, it was an all-round successful trip full of impressions, encounters and experiences - absolutely recommendable for every Sri Lanka traveler! ????????????Show more

  We spent two incredible weeks with Buddhika and Chandana which I will never forget. We were treated like family from day one. I can't begin to thank them enough for such a perfect tour of their beautiful country. Chandana's driving was excellent and we always felt very safe. Buddhika is extremely knowledgeable and very passionate about Sri Lanka. I learnt so much from my time with him. He had also planned the best trip with the perfect mix of activities ranging from many interesting cultural excursions to exhilarating wildlife safari's. The accommodation he had selected for us was always perfect. One night we were staying in a deluxe tent in the jungle and the next we were in a top floor suite overlooking the ocean. The variety of accommodation he managed to provide whilst still maintaining the upmost comfort for us was very impressive. Buddhika was also extremely helpful when one member of our group suffered an injury. His assistance in all aspects of this situation, from translating with local doctors to organising treatment, were exceptional. He is a truly lovely human being and he looked after us so well. And again, Chandana was amazing. His calm, kind and patient presence kept the trip rolling smoothly at all times. Thank you again for a truly special holiday that I will never forget! Lots of love, RobShow more

  Well what a trip. Sri Lanka is an incredible place with fascinating history and truly lovel people. Just give them a smile and they will beam back at you! We had absolutely brilliant two weeks all very carefully and professionally planned. So many great things that we have seen and done and all facilitated and enhanced by our knowledgeable and fun guide Buddhika and our skilled driver Chandana. Literally nothing was too much trouble as the Perla team tuned the trip to our requests. The accommodation was also outstanding with really lovely hotels in great locations. Highlights are too many to list but I absolutely loved the national parks, over 150 elephants gathered at the lake in Minneriya National Park! A sight I never thought I would see. Sigiriya (Lion Rock) was spectacular even though I'm nervous of heights! The buddhist cave temple at Dambulla was stunning. One last highlight was the visit to the tea plantations and meeting the lovely tea picking ladies, I could easily list more but you can check out the brochures. If I ever have the opportunity to return to Sri Lanka (and I hope I do) I will go straight to Exotic Perla!Show more
