10 Day Sri Lanka Adventure Private Tour
2 fantastic weeks with Jude and Saman
We spent two weeks criss-crossing Sri Lanka with Jude and then his business partner Saman. We had a fantastic time thanks to a good mix of planning and off the beaten tracks visits and activities, whether found by us or recommended by them. They are knowledgeable (eg best Ayurvedic massages ever...) , very reactive to our requests, fun to be with, good photographers. As importantly they both are great drivers, absolutely crucial to enjoy daily road trips in a country where driving is an art more than a skill... A great combination to make the most of such an amazing and diverse country

Turtle Snorkeling Mirissa: 100% Sighting Guarantee & Free GoPro
Exactly as in the description
It was a super experience and everything was as stated in the description. It was really nice to swim with the turtles. The guide was also great and took wonderful pictures and videos.

Night Snorkeling Experience in Mirissa
I loved the night...
I loved the night snorkeling! Swimming among many fish and two sea turtles was amazing — I even got to gently touch one. The guide was very friendly and helped us at every step. Such a memorable experience!
