    This tour covered so much ruins of Sigiriya to the temples in Kandy. The guides did a great job explaining the significance of each site, and we learned a lot. The hotels were generally good. The only downside was the weather in some places, but it didn’t take away from the overall experience.

    We had an excellent time on this tour! The guides were extremely knowledgeable, especially about the ancient ruins and religious sites. Sigiriya was a real highlight, and the trip to Minneriya National Park was amazing we saw so many elephants! The hotels were good, and the meals were tasty. The driver was skilled and friendly, which made the long drives much more relaxing.

    Great trip overall, but it was a bit packed. There not much downtime, and you’re constantly on the move, which can be exhausting. The safari in Yala was absolutely worth it, and I loved the train ride to Kandy, but the long road trips between locations were draining. The hotels were decent, though not extraordinary. I would recommend this for travelers who want to see as much of Sri Lanka as possible in a short amount of time.
