Smooth, Scenic, and Superbly Organized I joined a 6-Day Marangu Route hike with Kilisa Tours, and the whole experience was seamless. The accommodations in the mountain huts were cozy, and the support staff made sure we were always comfortable. Our guide shared fascinating stories about the mountain s history and wildlife. Everything ran perfectly on schedule, and the company s attention to detail was impressive. I ve done many treks before, but Kilisa Tours stands out for their genuine care and world-class service. Couldn t have asked for more!

Incredible Experience

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!

An Unforgettable 20-Day Wildlife Adventure in Sri Lanka

My family and I recently had the pleasure of experiencing a 20-day wildlife tour in Sri Lanka, led by an incredible team. We cannot recommend this tour company enough! From start to finish, our tour was nothing short of amazing. The team went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our trip was tailored to our needs and preferences. They were extremely attentive, professional, and knowledgeable about the wildlife and culture of Sri Lanka, and they made us feel like we were in safe hands at all times. Throughout the tour, we had the opportunity to witness some of the most incredible wildlife in the world, including majestic elephants, elusive leopards, and a wide variety of bird species. Our guide was exceptional, providing us with in-depth information about the animals and their behaviors, as well as the history and culture of Sri Lanka. The accommodations were top-notch, providing us with comfortable and luxurious stays in stunning locations. We particularly enjoyed our stay at a wildlife reserve, where we were able to observe the animals up close and personal. Overall, our 20-day wildlife tour in Sri Lanka was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that we will never forget. We highly recommend this tour company to anyone who is looking for an unforgettable adventure in Sri Lanka.

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.

Beautiful Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka is a hugely varied and beautiful country with lots of wonderful wildlife. Be prepared for hot temperatures and long journeys in the minibus, but it’s all worth it. I enjoyed every place we visited and all the activities involved. and we stayed in beautiful accommodations. Lahiru was exceptional. He is very knowledgeable, patient, and efficient. He has a very palpable love for his country and that brushed up on me and everyone on the tour. I couldn’t recommend this local travel specialist more highly to anyone. Thank you so much and I can’t wait for my next one!

It was a fantastic trip – a “bucket list” trip!

We just returned from our Wildlife photography tour to Sri Lanka a few weeks ago and cannot be happier with going with this Sri Lanka tour company. We communicated for probably about 5 months planning this trip. The trip was amazing. The lodging was perfect in all places, and the safaris were great in each location. Our trip designer Lahiru really exceeded all our expectations. he did such an amazing job! he was thoughtful with all his feedback, answered our million questions, and was so patient throughout the booking process. he was always so happy to help! Even during our trip, he was available through WhatsApp to help with any questions or concerns. Looking forward to working with this Amazing company on our return - and completing our escapade, and next time we’ll bring friends and family!
