Discover Sri Lanka
We are just home from a fantastic tour of Sri Lanka. Never has an Exodus holiday (this was our eighth tour) been so diverse of culture and wildlife. For example, day one, we were sitting in our hotel which was right beneath Lion Rock (the ancient capital of Sri Lanka) and that afternoon we went on a safari and saw loads of elephants in their natural habitat. Day-after-day, there was something to experience – temples, wildlife, locals, forests, cycling, trekking and even a couple days at one of the world’s top surfing oceans. Most of the hotels were of an excellent standard with lovely swimming pools. Generally speaking all Sri Lankan staff are very slow and laid-back but after a couple days we felt that this attitude actually helped with the relaxing, chilled atmosphere. Our guide Roshan was highly experienced – he was incredibly diligent, thorough and knowledgeable with exceptional attention to detail – one of the best Exodus guides we’ve met so far.

“Highly professional support team and an excellent trip leader. Everything went extremely smoothly to the extent we didn’t need to think or worry about a thing. The places we went to and people we met were fantastic. An overall excellent experience.
Only one small niggle – I ordered an electric bike and there were issues to the extent that I had to revert to using a standard bike. Luckily I am fit enough that it was not a problem, but if people are relying on electric bikes to enjoy the holiday, it could be a show stopper for them.”

The two long cycle days in Thailand and the first day cycling in Vietnam. Staying at the hotels in Siem Reap and the Mekong Delta, the simple but delicious lunches at well chosen restaurants, the dinners - especially the social enterprise restaurant in Siem Reap and the restaurants in the Mekong Delta and the farewell meal in Ho Chi Minh City.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Fantastic trip - highly recommended
Great trip from start to finish showcasing lots of different parts of Sri Lanka. The hiking was great and really got you away from the tourist hot spots. Beautiful scenery up in the mountains and forests, tea plantations, lakes, waterfalls. It was more beautiful than I had imagined. Hotels were all of a good standard, several with pools. I would have preferred not to camp the one night but that is just me! I liked that there weren’t lots of long road journeys and the itinerary was well paced. Lots of opportunities to sample Sri Lankan food. Great wildlife and birds. We were lucky enough to spot a leopard but the safari would have been fun even if we hadn’t as there was still lots to see. Overall, a brilliant trip as you see and do so much in the 15 days.

Hard to pick one! Probably hiking in the Knuckles mountain range as you were truly away from other tourists.

Sujee worked tirelessly to ensure we all had a great trip. Everything was very well organised and it was great to have the same driver and assistant for the entire trip. They also looked after us superbly. Always there with a smile, snacks and drinks on our return from a hike.
fun and rewarding trip.
Really enjoyed this trip. I liked the busy pace, the treks, houseboat and the homestay in particular. It was only a small group but we bonded easily over a couple of beers on the first night and that continued through the duration of the trip.
Most Inspirational Moment
Probably the trekking and in particular the third day which covered a lot of ground ending in a tea plantation near to the village of Yellapetty.
