Mirissa Tours and Trips

I would like to commend both the bus driver and assistant for going above and beyond. The driver was the most competent and safe one I have ever experienced. He drove in some difficult situations and was always safe and calm. I am often nervous in buses on crazy roads but not once did I feel unsafe. The assistant Upul was also an absolute gem. Gave us flowers every day.. helped us on and off the bus.. filled our water.. just a beautiful man. Please make sure these men get the accolades they deserve.

gAdventures delivers what they offer and at a reasonable price. The itineraries cover all the places of interest with a great balance of being busy and resting - cultural activities, village experiences, local refuges for women (for example), temples and active outdoor activities. The CEOs are a fount of knowledge and you learn so much about the history and life of the people. The CEOs make sure the restaurants and other eating houses are of a high standard and no one was sick on the trip.

Had the most amazing experience with my first solo trip with Intro. Everything was so well organised, accommodation was great and it was the experience of a lifetime. My group leader Dan Harris incredibly enhanced my experience. He was welcoming, the perfect mix of fun and professional and answered every possible question I had. If you get Dan on your trip, youre in for an amazing time! Thanks again Intro!

One of the best things Ive done as a solo traveller. Our tour guide Caro was the best and we had an unforgettable time! Cant wait to book another one soon!

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.

Our 20-day tailor-made trip to Sri Lanka was truly unforgettable, largely thanks to our wonderful guide Lahiru. We had the pleasure of visiting some of the country's most famous national parks, including Wilpattu and Yala, and Lahiru's extensive knowledge of the wildlife, regions, and local cultures made the experience all the more enriching. He went above and beyond to ensure that our trip was a success, and we couldn't have asked for a more helpful and accommodating guide. Throughout the planning process, Lahiru was extremely communicative and clear in his explanations of everything from airport pickup to lodging to costs. The lunches provided were delicious, with a warm lunch on the first day and quintessential 'boxed' lunches on subsequent days. The dinners were all buffet-style, but with plenty of options, including vegetarian. Overall, we feel that our trip was worth every penny and would jump at the chance to do it all over again. Thank you, Lahiru, for an incredible Safari adventure!
