Asked on November 10th, 2025what is the best weather time for this tour?
Passage HolidaysOperator•Written November 2025the best time to visit Sri Lanka depends on your itinerary, but generally, the dry season from December to March is ideal for the west and south coasts, as well as the hill country. For the east coast, the best time to visit is from April to September.

Asked on November 25th, 2024The reviews I read at the end of The Highlights of Sri Lanka Tour did not appear to be written from a personal perspective and rather short. One mentioned having a great week when the tour is a fortnight. Frequent mentions of appreciation of "the services" is not encouraging.
- Passage HolidaysOperator•Written November 2024
Kindly let us know how many days you are planning for Sri Lanka. Also it was the traveler's choice what he feel and what he write in there review.
