Sri Lanka Countryside and village visits Trips

These tours are intense - this is only to be expected when you do a lot, and see a lot, over the space of just a few weeks. You'll be exhausted by the time you get home again, but don't let that put you off. It's time well spent, accumulating memories to last you a lifetime. If solo travelling in an unfamiliar part of the world isn't for you, then group tours, with like-minded companions to share your experiences with, like these, are!

My first tour with G adventures and it?s honestly one of the best things I have ever done, meeting like minded people and experiencing such amazing things together, something I will never be able to forget. The CEOs were fantastic and took so much pride in sharing their countries with us and I?m very grateful for the experience

This trip was truly sensational! I had the time of my life and Sri Lanka will always have a special place in my heart. It was so well organised, and as a solo traveller, I had been nervous beforehand, but there was no need to be! Our CEO Ash was fantastic and so helpful and caring. The group was wonderful, we got on so well and had so much fun together! The tour had everything from hiking, a lot of culture and finished beside the beach - so I feel it was action packed and ticked all the boxes! G adventures make everything so simple, and I would recommend to everyone!

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.

North India was fantastic & amazing, I would nerver do South India in the way I did it, and for the Sri Lanka Part you don?t need a Group Tour, you doing only exact what solo backpackers doing anyway.

A wonderful experience, I saw so much to make me fall in love with India and Sri Lanka. Relax and keep an open and accepting attitude and you will love it too!
