Mirissa tours

I had a very nice local guide and had a wonderful afternoon visiting some places around Mirissa!! Especially the ocean temple in Matara was really nice and great to relax for a while.

I really enjoyed the tour with Ms Shashika and her husband. They helped me to understand the local history and every other detail information. The turtle hatchery and Hikkaduwa Beach was really awesome. Galle city is beautiful. Lunch was also very good. Thanks a lot to Klook. I really appreciate and recommend others too this activity. Finally want to mention,I enjoyed very much the Madu river boat ride also. Thanks.

The Kandy to Ella train was definitely a highlight of the Sri Lankan trip. Really happy I was able to find tickets through Klook. Bookee 3rd class and was slightly worried it would be overcrowded. Not the case. Spacious seats and best of all you can open the windows. In first and second class the seats are little more like coach/bus seats, but for the train experience suggest 3rd class.

The organizer of this was fantastic and easy to use. They booked everything for us easily and sent us an e-ticket that we used for the train. The e-ticket was sent days in advance so we had no worries about getting aboard. The seats they reserved for us were the best and gave us extra baggage space.

Apart from the trip, what I appriciated is the communication from the local provider. The driver and guide, Mr. Kosala was great.

I am so glad that I chose them via Klook app. We had a great driver/ guide. He drove us all around the Yala until we saw an elephant. We also saw leopards and he guide us thoroughly. I would highly recommend them. They were right on time to pick us up at our hotel and very much helpful.

It’s a pity that the driver and guide picked us up late almost 1 hour from 5:45am. Could have used the time to sleep more. As a result, we skipped the first beach and the first temple on the itinerary. However the trip was quite smooth and the journey was pleasant. We tried local lunch and local breakfast which were things that we liked most to do during vacations. Boat ride is nice too even when it’s a challenge for me to climb up and down on it since I slipped my leg just prior to that. Could have been nicer if we can find more souvenirs to purchase from. We reached Colombo earlier than scheduled as we didn’t do snorkeling at the beach. It’s a fun trip. Recommend to those who don’t know what to do in Colombo and want to Venture out of town.

At first, we were disappointed that the tour operator cancel our 5am booking the night before at 9pm (via email) because of Ceylon New Years. This is the main reason it was not a 5-star experience. Our tour guide Thisaru was absolutely amazing. He organized getting an item I left at my hotel back for me and was fantastic when navigating around a giant elephant on the road. We were able to see Water Buffalo, Deer, Elephants, different species of Birds, and some small Crocs. Nothing is guaranteed so we feel lucky to have fallen on such a good day.
