    Very comprehensive itinerary, gives you multifacetted insight into this beautiful, diverse country. Accommodation superior to what I experienced on other Intrepid Premium trips, all hotels were really nice. Great team! The driver, assistant and tour leader went above and beyond every single day, I felt pampered. Cham, our tour leader, was engaging, knowledgeable, and passionate about his country!

    Just returned from The Jewels of Sri Lanka tour and we had a great time. Anando was so enthusiastic about his county's culture, history and people. The 1 st couple of days were full on but we learned a great deal about Sri Lanka. The tour was varied with Temples, Tea plantations, wild life ( saw lots of elephants, crockodiles, buffalo, mongoose), eating in various restaurant and private houses. The food was wonderful and the hotels were lovely. We went whale watching from Marissa beach near Galle and saw blue whales and lots of dolphins. Our driver and baggage handler were very good and nothing was too much trouble. This was the first time we holidayed with Peregrine and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We would not hesitate to use Peregrine in future. .
