About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- 992amalik0 contributionsAmazing experience!I booked the night snorkelling in Mirissa and it was amazing! The guide first asked what my experience, skill level and confidence was with both snorkelling and swimming in the ocean. I felt safe the entire time in the ocean with my guide. He pointed out various sea life and continuously checked to make sure I was going okay. We were super lucky to even see a turtle and follow along with it! This is an experience that everyone should definitely try.Written 13 January 2025

- Traveler630479426280 contributionsThe best and convenientRandomly I found this place. I tried the atv ride and jetski combo from here. But they have more services. If you are looking for a place to spend your time without regression, try this . They've friendly staffs without ego issues. They didn't hesitate to take my photos.Written 10 January 2025
- 874shamilj0 contributionsGreat rides with Helpful Staff, but PriceyWe had an amazing time here. The staff was very helpful, and the location within the port city was perfect. The bikes were in good condition, but the price was a bit high for what was offered.Written 6 January 2025
- bowp20240 contributionsSoft coral and the colours of the oceanWhat a morning, the guides were so friendly and helpful and safe. We saw the shipwreck and lots of schools of fish and amazing soft coral, it was a great activity that we really enjoyed, if in unawatuna it’s a great safe way to spend time in the ocean and the company we’re professional and really open and warm, do itWritten 3 January 2025
- candicek20250 contributionsMust do in MirissaCoaches are nice and professional, he knows exactly where can i see the turtles and even let me to feed them. When I swim with the sea turtles i feel like i am in heaven. With tuk tuk pick up and drop off makes things easier! I would definitely join again if i am in Mirissa! :)Written 1 January 2025
- Sunayana_270 contributionsA must experience in Sri Lanka itineraryThe snorkeling experience was very good. The instructors were certified and very reassuring. Even if you don't know swimming or are afraid of water, this experience is going to make you love the water a little bit more. The water was super clear and we got to see turtles, fishes and coralsWritten 31 December 2024
- skywalker1909700 contributionsSuperReally well organised by ZRI. Although a long drive (4 hours) from colombo, it was worthwhile just to see the forest preserve. We were unlucky that some of the animals couldn't be seen even though our jeep driver tried his level best by going down all the different paths. Would really recommend it.Written 30 December 2024
- skywalker1909700 contributionsFabulousAmazing trip. Really well organised. ZRI took care of all the arrangements, so that we could enjoy the experience. The entire experience was fantastic. We did the rafting, zip lining, water fall and stream sliding.Written 30 December 2024
- Explore8210540 contributionsNot worthIt is like a safari.. we did not see any whale. It is overpriced and they took 3 to 4 hours and could not spot a whale. Not recommended because the beaches are beautiful and can be a better option. Many people were sleeping. :)Written 28 December 2024
- 454annkristins0 contributionsMadu river experienceFantastic Mangrove Adventure on the Madu River Our visit to the Madu River for a mangrove adventure was an unforgettable experience! The boat ride was serene and allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the beauty of the lush mangroves and the calm waters of the river. The natural surroundings were stunning, and we were lucky to spot some fascinating wildlife, including birds, monitor lizards, and even flying foxes. A standout moment was visiting a small temple located on one of the islands, which is considered a go-to Buddhist place for many locals. It offered a peaceful and spiritual atmosphere, adding a unique cultural aspect to the tour. The guide shared fascinating insights about the history and significance of the temple, making the experience even more meaningful. We also visited a cinnamon plantation, where we learned about the process of making cinnamon. The demonstration was engaging, and the aroma of freshly harvested cinnamon was unforgettable. The entire trip was well-organized, and our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure we had a fantastic time. This adventure is a perfect mix of nature, culture, and learning. If you’re visiting the area, the Madu River mangrove adventure is a must-do activity. It’s an incredible way to explore Sri Lanka’s natural beauty and rich traditions. Highly recommended!Written 24 December 2024

- lavyiiii0 contributionsUnfortunately, we had a very disappointing experienceUnfortunately, we had a very disappointing experience. On our first outing, our guide spotted a whale from a great distance, but by the time we approached, it had already disappeared. The tour operator kindly rescheduled us for another day, giving us a second chance to see the whales. However, on the rescheduled trip, we saw absolutely nothing. While the communication and operation with the staff were excellent. They were friendly, professional, and genuinely tried to give us a good experience, we still left feeling very let down. Despite being told it was high season, we ended up paying a significant amount of money without seeing any whales. It was truly disheartening, especially as we had been so excited about this experience. Just be aware that even during high season, there’s a chance you might spend a lot of money and leave without seeing anything.Written 5 December 2024

The guides were fun loving but they also looked into every aspect of safety so we felt like we were in good hands all the way.

Amazing coordination with Zakib in planning and great follow up. Amazing experience with the tour, tuktuk ride was quite an experience going up the waterfall..
A recommendation I do have:
1. guides to introduce themselves
2. Maybe a heads up that there's leeches are a common thing in SL rainforests and as well as that there's climbing on a steep hill to get back up to waterfall!
Would the leeches deter us from going?
Probably not.... but would have better prepared us to alcohol spray.. certainly a factor for someone people
The climb up would have be deterrent for someone with a knee issue even if they're physically fit..
Overall their guides provide a very good experience and a once in a lifetime experience!

Finally I ticked one thing off my bucket list with the help of ZRI Adventures. They have really good packages for affordable prices. It was an amazing experience. Me and my friends had an amazing time. The guides were nice and really patient with us. I can’t wait to try their other activities.
