I had a wonderful experience. I highly recommend SkyHaven Tours I really enjoyed this tour! our guide was very knowledgeable, kind and looked after us well. The hotels were great and the Sri Lankan spicy foods were incredible. they spent a lot of time trying to tweak our itinerary to our needs and requests. It was a good mixture given the contrast between the busy cities, cultural sites & game drives. We particularly liked the peacefulness & variety of wildlife in Sri Lanka. The whole trip went like clockwork. I am looking forward to returning to Sri Lanka to explore further.
Excellent Wildlife viewing! My husband and I have just returned from this experience and it was brilliant. From landing in Colombo to leaving 2 weeks later everything was well organized by this travel operator. It was a good value trip with lovely hotels/camp, a comfortable van with a lovely driver. All the connections were hassle-free and we were always treated with courtesy and care. The game drives were excellent, long days with lots of traveling over bumpy tracks but how else can you enjoy the thrill of seeing wild animals in their natural environments? We saw so many animals including a serval, 2 sloth bears, 4 leopards, and many herds of deer, water buffalo, a number of bird species, and elephant herds sweeping majestically across the plain. The whole trip exceeded our expectations.
A Beautiful Sri Lankan Experience We had very high expectations for our trip to Sri Lanka and we were certainly not disappointed! From the commencement of our adventure at Colombo Airport to the final farewell, we were well looked after by the operator provided by Bookmundi. Our tour guide and chaperone, Ruvin, was excellent and his cheerful and accommodating manner ensured that every day went smoothly and was full of interest. Thank you, Ruvin. Our experience: Hotels: All of our hotels were of exceptional quality with very attentive staff. We were ‘half board’ and the food was very tasty with many selections, both local and international. Landscapes and Scenery: Magnificent and diverse. Very dramatic. Mountains: Traveling through the mountains was so enjoyable and the rich fauna kept us engaged all of the time. History: Sri Lankan culture goes way back and the cultural sites are well worth exploring. Sigiriya Rock: Wonderful to see at sunset. Mountain train ride: A must do excursion with lots to see along the way, including tea plantations and agriculture. Kandy: Alluring at sunset. You must visit the temple. Beaches: Along the south and west coast we briefly enjoyed some lovely beaches, but be careful about where to swim. Did I mention the elephants? OMG! The elephant sightings in two reserves were simply spectacular. To see these beautiful creatures in their habitat, interacting with each other under their own terms was so special and we just couldn’t get enough of them. Luckily there were many to see and their bond and affection for each other was just mesmerizing. If for no other reason, Sri Lanka is worth visiting just to get up close to these beautiful animals. Finally, as we said our fond farewell to dear Ruvin, we shed a tear and yet smiled as well knowing full well that we are taking home with us some lifelong, wonderful memories. Sri Lanka 🇱🇰. Don’t hesitate, just do it! Thanks to everyone who made our experience so special. Tony and Criselda. Florida USA April 2024.
