- caoimhe· July 22nd, 2025Emma Lane could not have looked after our every need and whim any better, she really was top drawer! So organised, friendly, professional and had a genuine desire to make our trip as good as possible. We literally couldn't decide what to eat without her recommendations at the end of the trip!

- KCKaren· July 22nd, 2025The Sri Lanka experience has been a fantastic tour and would highly recommend to anyone thinking of travelling. The itinerary has a great balance of activity, culture, nightlife and chill time. My key points of interest for visiting Sri Lanka were met within the tour (Ella train, nine arches and surfing). Our tour Leader Emma L has been outstanding throughout the trip. Welcoming, friendly, helpful and excellent knowledge of the local area. Amazing experience!Show moreTrip date: July 2025
- TDTom· July 22nd, 2025A wonderful way to see Sri Lanka! The itinerary blends adventure and culture perfectly allowing for full exposure to a truly wonderful country. There is flexibility to participate in additional activities in the free time within the schedule meaning you can relax or add even more excitement into the trip! The accommodation was excellent throughout that enabled the group I was in to bond and to form lasting friendships. Emma Lane was a wonderful trip leader who provided the group with lots of cultural knowledge, ensured the whole trip ran faultlessly and was so fun throughout. She helped turn a great trip into a really special one. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to explore Sri Lanka!Show moreTrip date: July 2025
- THTash· July 4th, 2025Everything was planned perfectly! Compared to other tours I have been on with different companies I felt there was the right amount of activities and chill time throughout the days and I never felt rushed to get to one place or the other. I also never felt like I was missing out on anythingShow more
Trip date: July 2025 - BCBryony· July 3rd, 2025My 3 friends and I travelled around Sri Lanka with the absolutely wonderful Emma. I don’t actually have the words to express how amazing she made this experience for all of us. I met 4 other lovely girls and had such a great time. Emma took so much effort to get to know us all, make sure that we were always comfortable and having a good time, laughing with us (putting up with my insane sense of humour), teaching us heaps about the beautiful Sri Lanka. I hope to cross paths with Emma again or any of the beautiful girls I travelled with on the trip. If you are lucky enough to have Emma as your guide around Sri Lanka you are 100% guaranteed to have the best time… or I will personally give you a 100% money back xxx (I won’t be paying anyone back)Show moreTrip date: July 2025

Tiffany
Asked on August 19th, 2025I am looking to go in February 2026. Also I would like to have a couple of free days that I can explore on my own. Which area do you recommend before the or after the tour? And is it safe to be on my own?
INTRO TravelOperator•Written August 2025If you have the time for an extra few days before or after the tour, that's great! The South Coast has many exciting places to explore! The Sri Lanka tour ends in Mirissa which is on the South Coast, so it may be a good idea to stay on after the tour ends for your extra days. We have plenty of solo travellers that spend time before or after the tour exploring the incredible country with no problems at all!

Tiffany
Traveler•Written August 2025Thanks so much for your prompt responses and for assurance. I am looking at mid February as I believe it's a good time to travel in Sri Lanka. The accommodation are 4 or 5 stars? And when do i have to decide before it's too late?
- INTRO TravelOperator•Written August 2025
You'll stay in a variety of amazing accommodation whilst on tour. Whether it's a beachside resort, an Eco retreat or a modern hotel with a rooftop pool overlooking the city! The hotels will be 3 or 4 star hotels, in a twin share as standard. However, a private room upgrade is possible if you'd prefer (subject to availability).
- T
Tiffany
Traveler•Written August 2025Thanks Adele. I definitely prefer my own room and not a twin share. Can I upgrade to a 4 star for all hotels?
- INTRO TravelOperator•Written August 2025
The accommodations are set for our tours therefore we're unable upgrade to other hotels. The cost to upgrade would be an additional $950 AUD.

Asked on July 8th, 2025seeking a trusted local provider to assist with a series of private group activities and tour for our stay in Sri Lanka.

Asked on February 18th, 2025Do you have a cost for a single room
- INTRO TravelOperator•Written February 2025
We can certainly look into the possibility of a private room for you. However we do room you with someone of the same gender (excluding multi-share accommodation) and try our best to room you with someone of a similar age. Also Group Members are in their hotel rooms for a very limited time throughout the trip, as there are activities most days and things planned most evenings.

Asked on January 21st, 2025I am hoping to book the Sri Lanka experience tour starting April 19 2025. I am hoping you could give me some info on the demographic that has already signed up. I am a 31 year old, female, solo traveller and it would be nice to be on a tour with other solo travellers of a similar age.
- INTRO TravelOperator•Written January 2025
We currently have another 3 solo travellers booked on to this start date and they are aged between 19-30. We usually recieve most of our bookings within 2 months of the start date, so it is likely we will see more people booking on soon.
