Sri Lanka National parks Trips

Our guide, Mimi, was amazing. He was extremely knowledgeable, engaging & ensured that the whole holiday ran as smoothly as possible. The itinerary was a great mix of culture, scenery & delicious food - I could not have expected more I will definitely travel with Explore in the future & am excited as to where to go next ....

It is the 9th time I have used Explore for a holiday. From booking to the actual holiday have always been easy to sort and this was no different. Unfortunately, we had trouble with our flight connection but communication with the tour company was easy and helped us get to our destination. The holiday was exceptional and sri lanka is a beautiful country to visit. Our tour guide guide was exceptional and went above and beyond to make it an amazing experience for us all on the tour. From the beautiful scenery to the experiences with the wildlife and the people was something we shall never forget. The food was amazing and varied. The tour helped us understand a diverse and beautiful country and covered everything to enhance our experience. Yet again, our tour leader, bus driver and bus boy were so friendly and helpful. They made everything run so smoothly. Sir Lanka is an amazing country and we would definitely return. We cannot thank Explore for another experience of a lifetime.

Fantastically varied and action packed trip in beautiful, vibrant, colourful Sri Lanka. This tour had everything; two millennium of fascinating history, interesting towns and cities as well as stunning scenery and golden beaches. Wildlife in abundance including leopards, elephants and blue whales. The bus, food, and hotels were all good and made even better by the always friendly Sri Lankan hospitality lead by Sujesh our wonderful guide, who was kind, thoughtful and entertaining in equal measure. One of the best trips I have been on for sure.

This was my first Explore trip, and it turned out to be the best group tour I’ve done so far. I really enjoyed the itinerary, the group, and above all, our tour leader Sujith. He was outstanding – attentive to everyone, full of knowledge about Sri Lanka’s history, culture, people, and economy, and always finding ways to make the journey special with spontaneous stops and unique local interactions. I would highly recommend both this trip and Explore to anyone considering a visit to Sri Lanka.

The leader was exceptional and made efforts to introduce us to local experiences. He provided information on a number of interesting topics and was open to questions of all kinds. He was friendly, kind and made everyone in the group feel included and important!

I did the India and Sri Lanka combo experience and honestly had the best time in both. As my first time going away anywhere on my own it was so reassuring having intro do all the hard work, organising, planning, getting from place to place for me. In India my group leaders were Yoni and Mikes, both two absolutely beautiful human beings. It was so beautiful to see how they interacted with the locals which encouraged us and showed how we could also interact with them positively and respectfully. In Sri Lanka my group leader was Matt, who also was amazing. He was so knowledgeable on the incredible country Sri Lanka is and really helped us appreciate its beauty on a deeper level. All three of the group leaders gave a great sense of security to me allowing me to feel safe in both countries and able to relax and really appreciate and enjoy them for what they are.
