Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    This was a really fun few hours with a variety of different water activities which I would not hesitate to book again.

    The experience included rafting, a zip line into the river and sliding down and jumping off rocks into the water. The guys running it kindly took photographs and videos of us during the experience which we really appreciated. The experience was also exclusive for me and my partner rather than a group experience.

    The end to end experience lasted for around 3 hours. I would recommend water shoes if you have them and swim shorts to avoid scratching your legs when sliding down the rocks.

    Ibrahim is an ex-banker with Standard Chartered Bank, so don't be surprised to find an educated 'driver'. Driver he is by choice, because he loves taking people around Sri Lanka. In fact, being a driver is only one of his avatars. He is a tour-organiser extra ordinaire. He received us at the airport, and told us he had arrangement for tea/coffee in the car itself. He had booked hotel rooms for us. All except one hotel were excellent. When we told him about the casual approach of a hotel, he told us that he would speak to the owner and would never take any future visitors to that hotel.
    Everywhere we went, people knew him, and held him in great affection.
    Nothing was too difficult for him. He helped us get get the tickets for, for example the lion-top at Sigriya, or for the whale watching. He booked tickets for us for the train-journey from Nanu Oya to Ella.
    Where you would find a person who would forward money to a stranger. When we wanted to get sim for the Sri Lanka journey at the airport, the shop refused to accept credit card. Within blink of an eye, he had lent me 5000 LKR.
    He knew that my wife is a strict vegetarian, and would be put off if the food gave any odd smell. He took care to brief the hotel staff to be extra careful, and clean the cooking vessels before preparing a vegetarian meal in it.
    Even when he retired for the night, he repeated that we were to call him in the case of any problem at any time, day or night.
    He always has a cheerful demeanour. A lovely fellow. Treat him with respect and affection, and he will return it many-fold.
    Thanks Ibrahim, you made my and my wife's holiday in Sri Lanka a memorable one in the best possible manner.

    Absolutely one of the best trips we have ever had. From the moment we landed (at midnight in Colombo) to the last morning. Gihan our guide and Manoj our driver (and guide also!) were beyond fantastic. Gihan and his team were always there on hand if we needed any recommendations of where to eat or what to see and their attention to detail and ensuring that we were looked after and happy was 100 percent.

    We were travelling with our 3 teenage kids and the holiday was brilliant for them and us. The right mix of adventure and the magical with great hotels. I particularly loved the fact that Gihan walked with us and guided us up the massive Lions Rock and kept the cheeky monkeys away from my daughter (who wasn't a fan of them trying to steal her coca cola!). We really enjoyed Manoj and Gihan's smile and support every day.

    Gihan and his team definitely know the ins and outs of the country and really do find the hidden gem boutique hotels (the first hotel - our room was the size of a house!). And they can tailor to your needs and are flexible - so any budget of hotel they were able to sort for us.

    A great and safe way to embrace an amazing country. One day we are in Kandy at the temple of the Buddha's tooth (a truly magical experience in the evening time), the next we are up in the tea plantations at nearly 7000 feet and the following day we are watching a leopard on a safari up close.

    You can do as much or as little as you like - but we really loved the flexibiity of the air conditioned van as a base to drive us to all these exotic places you would never reach on your own (or very easily!) and a new fantastic hotel every few days. Loved the stunning views from our Tea plantation hotel and the infinity pool on the roof of the hotel in Mirrissa looking out to the beach opposite.

    I loved the fact that Manoj ensured we all got on the tourist train from Nuriya Ella to Ella without missing it and protected us from the melee. I've done many back-packing travels in my day - but much preferred combining adventure with comfort and that element of safety for the kids.

    Gihan got us a local SIM card when we arrived and we used watts app for all our comms - which made things really easy both before travel and during. It's easy to get money out at ATMS in Sri Lanka and really stunning place to visit. I would highly recommend Ceylon awaits for that special bespoke tour to your family.

    Thanks Gihan and Manoj! And hope to see you again soon! cheers Tom!

    Our holiday has sadly come to an end. We’ve had the most fantastic time visiting this beautiful country with Danuka as our chauffeur guide for two weeks. He has been extremely knowledgeable, friendly and courteous looking after us so well for our entire trip.
    I think we even had a first with him when we had to cross a swollen stream/ river in a Tuk TuK which stalled 3/4 of the way across! We made it and the return journey crossing the now torrent was in a tractor cart! Scary but great fun at the same time.
    We give him the highest praise possible. His driving skills were much appreciated taking great care on the road when other drivers most certainly don’t!
    We can only hope that when we return he will be our guide again. Thank you for making our 1st trip to Sri Lanka so memorable.

    We stayed in Sri Lanka Colombo area due to german governmnet funded academic student cooperation project and booked Winstartours with Wickrama for a package of 12 tours to southern, eastern, and southern provinces. Trips were done with very comfortable Toyota Hybrid car as well as vans of several sizes . Wickrama was always reliablle on the spot, cars were clean and without any failure. All his trip bookings worked out nicely, he saved our money with comparably better prizes due to personal contacts to local hotels and guides. He cared for fresh food on the road, as King coconuts, Papaya and buffalo curds with triacle. Great assistance with everything unforeseen, too.
    In summary Wickrama now is our "mully" friend, We definitely will ask for his services whenever we are in Sri Lanka again.

    Asian Island were very responsive to what we wanted in our holiday. They considered what was needed for the safety and comfort of our kids. They supplied us with options to choose from and were aware of our budget. Asian Island's local knowledge helped us fit the most rewarding cultural and fun experiences into our timeframe. They coordinated accommodation, activities and transport. Our accommodation was budget friendly, yet we were spoilt beyond our expectations. There was one place that was just ok and they were accepting of this feedback. They made us aware of expected pricing cultural norms and eased any communication difficulties. Asian Island were attentive to our needs and checked in regularly to see that we were having the great time. Their positive attitude and support helped this be a memorable trip for our whole family!

    Good morning Manu. We had an amazing trip in Sri Lanka visited so many beautiful places. So many memories to share with friends and family when we go back to London. SRI LANKA is definitely a place to explore from the beautiful beaches to the beautiful natural landscapes and architecture.

    Our driver was very good and had some good chats with us.

    Our guide was good too. He was professional, welcoming and delivered a service with a smile.

    Overall I would recommend the driver and the guide to family and friends. 😁😁🤩

    Me and my family short planned a trip to srilanka for 12 nights. Sasheen is the one who organised and planned all activities and ensured they were all fun and engaging for families of all sorts, as well as a range of locations including: sigiriya , nuwaraeliya, kandy and yaala safari.
    I commend them on their planning and understanding of entertainment and curiosity and for delighting the visual senses with all the beautiful sights; a lovely experience indeed!
    Thank you very much guys. Cannot wait to plan my next vacation with you all.🙏🏻
