Sri Lankan Highlights April 2019

Exodus does an excellent job in showcasing this jewel off the tip of India. This tour gives you the highlights of Sri Lanka in a short amount of time. The itinerary is varied with sightseeing, hiking, biking with a little down time thrown in. You do need a basic level of fitness even though this trip is rated 1.
Accomodations are mostly 3.5*. Super clean, friendly and unique accomodations.
The food at the hotels were plentiful and very good. Focus is on Curry and Rice dishes with many vegetarian options. Our guide Suresh directed.

The Elephant Safari, Lion Rock and biking were some of my favourite activities.
Sri Lanka is suited for all including families.

Most Inspirational Moment

I am not sure there was a moment. But the people of Sri Lanka are beautiful people. They are a kind and gentle people. It was lovely seeing the families including several babies at the temple. Families enjoying the beach together. The children running out to say hello to us when biking.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Our leader Suresh was A-One! He was well organized but laid back. He imparted much information. A lovely man who is approachable, kind and funny. He truly made our trip wonderful.

Advice for Potential Travellers

This is a great stepping stone before visiting India. You will have some of the influences without the craziness. Some level of fitness is required if you would like to bike, hike etc.. January and February are peak seasons. The off season of April was a wonderful time to travel. Not as many people and weather still pleasant. Sri Lanka has it all: Beaches, Temples, Elephants, Monkeys, Lion Rock, beautiful Scenery.

Sri Lanka a dream holiday

A fantastic holiday. Well organised our guide Roshan was informative, helpful and very calm and he together with his team looked after us exceptionally well. A busy holiday but still well paced, amazing sights and I can’t wait to go back.

Most Inspirational Moment

The manicured hills of the tea plantations and Horton plain.

Thoughts on Group Leader

As I said above Roshan was very good and exceptionally calm

Advice for Potential Travellers

Just book a trip to Sri Lanka don’t wait!

Wonderful Holiday

Although classed as level 1 adventure you do need to be fit. One day cycled 15kms, another climbed all 1100 steps up Lion Rock. You did not have to do these things but would have missed interesting fun experiences. I travelled with my sister. We are both in our early 70’s and managed all the included activities. Enjoyed the age group varying from late teens upward.

Most Inspirational Moment

Its hard to decide what was the most inspirational event on the trip as we saw so many special things. Wild elephants, ruins, temples in use and the beautiful countryside.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Dileepa stepped in at last minute and did a superb job guiding us all. He knew so much history and other information about his country.
