Things to do in Sri Lanka

Had a wonderful experience exploring Colombo. I took the 8am option and my guide, Zilan, was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the experience truly enjoyable. I was offered a bottle of water too :) He does click amazing pictures so you need not worry if you are exploring this solo. A great way to discover the city's hidden gems and local charm. Highly recommend!

Sadeep, the local operator, who is also the snorkeling guide and expert was very thorough with everything. First, he suggested that we have to move our booking from 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM for better weather conditions of the trip, and glad we did! Secondly, he picked us up earlier 8:50 AM which was very nice. Thirdly, upon arriving at the area where we gonna do the activity, he explained everything: from the dos and donts, our snorkeling experiences, etc. Fourth, we saw a total of 3 turtles and it was a great experience! Lastly, Sadeep offered a king coconut as refreshments after the activity. It was fun, well guided trip and very affordable.

Seeing a blue whale several times and so many dolphins was definitely the highlight of our trip to Mirissa. The whale came up around five times, and we were able to watch it from the boat. We also saw lots of dolphins swimming and jumping nearby. The staff were very friendly, kind, and helpful throughout the whole trip. They made us feel comfortable and took good care of everyone on the boat. One thing we really appreciated was the special care they showed towards my husband. He cannot eat the usual breakfast, so the staff kindly prepared milk rice especially for him. It was such a thoughtful gesture and meant a lot to us. The trip was well organized, the guide explained everything clearly, and the atmosphere was very relaxed. We really enjoyed the experience and would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Mirissa! experience: Amazing, instructor: well explained, good guide location: mirissa safety: floating safety jackets provided, and gave safety briefing

This was our first time visiting Sri Lanka, and we really wanted to go on a safari. We booked just a day in advance, but they handled everything very kindly. We were also very grateful that they arrived right on time for our appointment. Our guide did his absolute best to give us a great safari experience. He took us to more places and spent more time than other groups, allowing us to see countless animals. We would like to thank him once again. If you come to Sri Lanka, you must definitely experience a safari, and be sure to book it here. You will create unforgettable memories.

Had an amazing day with Indika. It was a long ride but definitely worth it. 🐘

Eranda and Chamoth exceeded our expectations. Friendly, professional, and talented. The extra 6,000 LKR for the photo and video package was definitely worth it. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

For my trip to Sri Lanka this time, I chose a 7-day luxury tour, handled by Ceylon Paradise Tours. The entire journey was wonderful! We visited many different places, and the hotels, transportation, and overall arrangements were excellent. The accommodations were very comfortable, and visiting the attractions went smoothly. Overall, I'm very satisfied. I especially want to thank my driver, Wasantha. He was incredibly amazing—very attentive, patient, and explained everything so well throughout the trip. He made sure to show me all the worthwhile sights, and basically fulfilled all my wishes for where to go and what to do. I hope he gets more tours! He's truly fantastic!!! Finally, I want to thank Ceylon Paradise Tours and driver Wasantha. This trip to Sri Lanka created so many golden memories. If I have the chance to visit Sri Lanka again, I'll definitely reach out to them for help. Highly recommend visiting Sigiriya and going on a safari! 🐆🐅🐘

It's a good experienc. Our tour guide udara is attentive, cheerful, and provided excellent service. He offered insightful explanations regarding the history and culture of each location, which greatly enriched our experience. The pace of the trip was well-organized, ensuring a comfortable balance between sightseeing and downtime. He was consistently attentive to the needs of us. The weather of Sri Lanka is good and activities were really fun!

We had an amazing day in Colombo, and our guide, Gimman, made the experience truly memorable. He was friendly, professional, punctual, and incredibly knowledgeable about the city and its history. He made us feel comfortable throughout the trip, answered all our questions patiently, and shared interesting local insights that we wouldn't have discovered on our own. The tour was well-paced, and he ensured we had enough time at every attraction while also recommending great local spots. His positive attitude and hospitality made the entire experience enjoyable. Highly recommend Gimman to anyone visiting Colombo. Thank you for making our trip so special!

We originally booked a tour for only the first day of our three-day trip, but Lakmal was so kind and the experience was so wonderful that we decided to book the remaining two days with him as well. Despite our last-minute request, he worked with the other staff members to create an itinerary that included all the places we wanted to visit. We were truly impressed by how well the entire team communicated and cooperated to make our trip special. One of our favorite experiences was visiting Sigiriya Village, where we enjoyed traditional food and learned about local village life. It was a memorable experience that allowed us to discover a way of life very different from our own. Thanks to Lakmal and the whole team, we were able to explore Sri Lanka safely and comfortably without any worries. Sri Lanka has become our favorite country out of all the places we have visited. Thank you so much for giving us such unforgettable memories!

originally we booked another tour with different operator but didn’t receive a response, we decided to check this one and thought maybe we wouldn’t be getting a response as we booked suddenly like 30 mins before the session. To my surprise our guide responded so fast and even picked us at our hotel on time. the tuktuk was very clean and tidy! Wow! not only that he managed to explain each destination so well and answered all our questions, I would say he’s one of the best tour guides i’ve ever had. we learned so much about Sri Lanka from this tour! Thank you so much mr Zilan, we had so much fun and would love to book again for our next Sri Lanka trip! definitely recommended!

Oshan and Imeth are professional guides. They are punctual for meetups. Since Sri Lanka’s weather can be unpredictable, the guides also monitor cloud forecasts to anticipate the weather and arrange the best itinerary for us, ensuring we don’t miss any attractions. They are also excellent photographers, capturing many priceless photos for us. Highly recommended.
