Great trip, full pace (not moderate) itinerary. Tour leader, Sam, driver and assistant took very good care of the group. Sam’s bird life knowledge is great, he shared a lot of information about the birds of Sri Lanka. The trip has a good balance of culture and wildlife. Visited beautiful temples and other sights and enjoyed wild elephants on many occasions. Enjoyed the train ride.
Some long days, and too many shopping stops, some not on the itinerary. Not a lot of downtime/relax time. Good hotels.
