★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 472 reviews · from $665Our pick

8 days around Sri Lanka from Negombo with a private English-speaking driver, sunrise sights, safaris, beaches, and breakfast included.

“The tour is very interesting. You see of Sri Lanka and do a lot of different things (safaris, temples, train ride, hiking, etc). Our tour guide, Nisha, is very experienced and very knowledgable in culture, history, botanics and zoology (in particular birds and butterflies). And he’s a super driver. Nisha made sure we always had the best view possible! Thank you Nisha! We booked the luxury tour: the hotels we stayed in are NOT anywhere near luxury standards. Smelly rooms, bad buffet food (Oak Ray hotel chain, so same food in all the hotels), dirty towels. Additional costs for safaris etc are not transparent.”
