1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?

To be honest everyday was memorable as we had such a diverse itinerary Probably seeing wild elephants and lion rock stand out but also the days we spent hiking and meeting the tea picking ladies was amazing

2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?

Make sure to bring plenty of t-shirts as it’s hot hot hot ! Take time to explore Colombo it is an amazing city and the tuk tuk drivers are very cheap- on my last day I hired a guy for 5 hours and he only asked me for 3000 rupees or about £13 - I gave him £20 it was well worth it and make sure you visit the Hindu temple Sri Ponnambula it is truly amazing ! Apart from that keep an open mind and really suck in the culture and the food is absolutely amazing ! All in all Sri Lanka is awesome !!

3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

I feel that it benefits locals as we visited a lot of local rural areas and spent money in their economy - we had local guides also and this supplements their income - the local rural community lives to welcome “sudos “ and they are so friendly it is very humbling

4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?

5* vacation it will live very long in the memory - I’ve never taken so many pics and I will cherish looking back at them in the future

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?

Circle Sri Lanka was a fabulous experience... the sights sounds tastes experiences made for an incredible adventure. What has stayed with me and what I think about now is the beautiful food and flavours that Sri Lanka had to offer... a party in my mouth every time... how delightful.

2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?

When going here, go with an open mind. The people are kind and wonderful; the food is amazing; the sights are varied and the scenery stunning.

3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

The local contact we had was superb... we ate at farmers houses, we walked among their tea plantations, we mingled with restaurant owners... the eco lodge was an added bonus and we could see first hand the benefit the lodge had to providing employment to the local village.

4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?

This was a great vacation...well planned with a good variety of activities. As the trip was winding down, we had some beautiful rest days on the sandy beaches of Mirissa... a great way to end.
