What people love about Sri Lanka Tours in July
- North & East Highlights Sri lanka 12 Days [Comfort "Summer"]
I had a great experience with Show Lanka Tours! I spent 20 days in Sri Lanka very recently and my tour was arranged by Show Lanka Tours. i wanted to have this tour mixed with relaxed and exciting activities. Mr. Janaka prepared the details of the tour based on my preferences and i am really happy with what he offered. He was also very flexible! Janaka allocated Mr. Manjula as the tour guide and driver. I could not have asked for a better driver and guide than Manjula! He is knowledgeable, reliable, very caring and has a good sense of humor! As i wanted to try Sri Lankan traditional food, he brings me to all those places where i could taste the traditional food including super tasty street food! I really had an enjoyable time with Mr. Manjula while discovering the beauty of Sri Lanka! I highly recommend Show Lanka Tours and, of course, Mr. Manjula for anyone who wishes to have a memorable experience in Sri Lanka.
- Sun Baths on Sands plus surfing
What I love about this tour was I enjoyed just as the way I exactly expected. The itinerary was perfectly followed.
- Sri Lanka Hopper Summer vacation with 15 Days [4* Beach Holiday]
Our Guide was mister Ruwan, who was very friendly did a great job. Although my friend didn‘t speak English very good, he was very engaged to make everything easily comprehensive. It was just the two of us with Ruwan, so he asked us a lot about the trip, the activities and where we wanted to stay for how long. The bus with the „livingroom chairs“ was also very very comfortable for the long rides and the hilly roads. We can just recommend the trip, the guide and the company! ❤️
