    Sri Lanka cultural history was brought to life, especially at places like Sigiriya and Kandy. Our guide was super knowledgeable, offering fascinating insights into the ancient temples and ruins. The accommodations were mostly comfortable, with some places offering amazing views. The train ride from Nuwara Eliya to Kandy was an unexpected treat with scenic views all around. Our driver ensured we always easy to enjoy.

    Cultural sites and natural beauty was fantastic. I’ll never forget the stunning views from Sigiriya, or the history we learned at Anuradhapura. Our guide was excellent, very patient with our questions and full of interesting details about the local culture. The hotels were great for the price, and the driver made sure we were always safe and comfortable. Highly recommend this tour if you want to see the best of Sri Lanka.
