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.

The trip to Sri Lanka followed by the dhoni cruise in the Maldives was absolutely amazing. So many different experiences and so much variety. I absolutely loved all of it, from temples and elephants to swimming with sharks. The 2 different tour leaders on the 2 parts of the tour were both excellent as were their support staff. They went out of their way to give us a fantastic experience.

Fantastic guide! Nimal Wijeratne, Aitken Spence's Travels. Because of Nimal we have had a great holiday as he showed us his beautiful Sri Lanka in so many different ways. He was helpful, friendly and extremely knowledgeable about Sri Lanka and the trip. We have been to restaurants and places where we would never have been without Nimal. We have had a good connection with Nimal and he became a true friend.
