Asia Wildlife safaris and game drives Trips

It is the 9th time I have used Explore for a holiday. From booking to the actual holiday have always been easy to sort and this was no different. Unfortunately, we had trouble with our flight connection but communication with the tour company was easy and helped us get to our destination. The holiday was exceptional and sri lanka is a beautiful country to visit. Our tour guide guide was exceptional and went above and beyond to make it an amazing experience for us all on the tour. From the beautiful scenery to the experiences with the wildlife and the people was something we shall never forget. The food was amazing and varied. The tour helped us understand a diverse and beautiful country and covered everything to enhance our experience. Yet again, our tour leader, bus driver and bus boy were so friendly and helpful. They made everything run so smoothly. Sir Lanka is an amazing country and we would definitely return. We cannot thank Explore for another experience of a lifetime.

Just returned from this trip. It was a brilliant 2 weeks. So varied and enjoyable. The hotels are a great standard with exceptional food choice and a pool at every one. Everyday is something different, lots of opportunities to spot wildlife, learn about the culture and see beautiful scenery. Sri lanka is a wonderful country, you won't regret booking this holiday.

There was great variety on this tour. The Sri Lanka days were packed and were a little tiring but we saw so many places and such diversity of wildlife and culture, it was definitely worth it. The pace in the Maldives was more leisurely, though, so this created a great balance.

Fantastically varied and action packed trip in beautiful, vibrant, colourful Sri Lanka. This tour had everything; two millennium of fascinating history, interesting towns and cities as well as stunning scenery and golden beaches. Wildlife in abundance including leopards, elephants and blue whales. The bus, food, and hotels were all good and made even better by the always friendly Sri Lankan hospitality lead by Sujesh our wonderful guide, who was kind, thoughtful and entertaining in equal measure. One of the best trips I have been on for sure.

This was my first Explore trip, and it turned out to be the best group tour I’ve done so far. I really enjoyed the itinerary, the group, and above all, our tour leader Sujith. He was outstanding – attentive to everyone, full of knowledge about Sri Lanka’s history, culture, people, and economy, and always finding ways to make the journey special with spontaneous stops and unique local interactions. I would highly recommend both this trip and Explore to anyone considering a visit to Sri Lanka.

We had a fantastic trip with Mimi as our tour leader. The quality of the hotels was great (particularly at Kandalama and Galle) and Mimi was a great guide providing the right amount of information needed and answering questions comprehensively. We loved the itinerary but would have welcomed an extra day in both Nuwara Eliya and Galle to give a bit more relaxation time and also a change to see more of these places. We loved all the extra stops now mentioned in the trip notes and felt well looked after throughout. Thank you so much for a great trip.
