Outstanding customer service ensured the most amazing, stress-free holiday we could have ever dreamed of.
It was obvious from our first conversation how passionate Deepthi was about sharing the best of Sri Lanka with us. Her intuitive knowledge of the country and her extensive connections with drivers, tours and accommodation options filled me with great confidence and reassurance. Her communication during the planning and booking stages was flawless and she was incredibly receptive to our requests and queries and was able to tailor the holiday to our interests….seeing lots of wildlife!”

“We recently made a 15-day trip to Sri Lanka through Tropical Lanka Getaways and had a fabulous time thanks to the amazing itinerary. Their knowledge of Sri Lanka is incredible as every bit of the itinerary was carefully and thoughtfully organised to provide us with a wonderful opportunity to experience everything this beautiful country has to offer. The choice of fantastic accommodation and multiple family friendly activities made this a memorable trip not only for us but also for our 6-year-old daughter. Our trip was made extra special with our professional guide, Mr. Hilmy Cassim, who made every effort to ensure our comfort and safety in making our trip an incredibly memorable one. We would highly recommend Tropical Lanka Getaways to anyone planning a family friendly dream holiday in Sri Lanka (and indeed, any other location)!

“We had the BEST holiday ever in Sri Lanka thanks to Tropical Lanka Getaways. Your service was so efficient right from the planning stage to the end of our tour. Your patience in helping us finalize the itinerary was greatly appreciated, as was your help when we changed some arrangements late in the trip. Your accommodation & itinerary suggestions were spot on. Thank you!
Our driver, Mahinda, was absolutely magic. He was friendly, intelligent, widely-travelled and always smiling and positive. Nothing was too much of a problem and his charm extended over to other Sri Lankan’s we encountered (restaurants, safari guides, etc) and in turn we were treated very well by everyone we met. His local knowledge was outstanding. We were very glad he was our driver and guide for a couple of weeks. We highly recommend the services of Tropical Lanka Getaways”.

“Thanks to Tropical Lanka Getaways for organising a wonderful life-changing holiday.
Our highlights included the Elephant Orphanage especially the lunch over the river with elephant walk, two wild life safaris and the Blue train trip through tea plantations from Kandy to the English Town! Our accommodation was great, especially the Cinnamon Wild with the elephant next to our room before we went to breakfast! Mountain Heavens boutique hotel in Ella had the best view ever! Jetwing hotels all were great… and the last hotel in Colombo Galle Face was grand and very opulent.
Our guide / driver was excellent and his Toyota Prius hybrid electric / engine car was neat tidy, clean and well airconditioned. His knowledge about all locations, plants birds, animals etc was amazing.
We will certainly travel again with Tropical Lanka Getaways and have already recommended you to our family and friends. Thank you again”

We were more than happy with the driver/ guide. The range of activities and sights included in our itinerary were fantastic. Thanks very much for putting a fabulous program together for us. We have recommended Tropical Lanka Getaways to our family and friends.”

“Everything of our Indian Tour went well as planned and our guide looked after us very well.
Ranthambore was great. We saw two tigers and a leopard, apparently quite unusual. Our sightseeing tours were really impressive – the forts in and around Agra, including Fatehpur Sikri, not to mention the Taj Mahal which was simply extraordinary.
The hotels have all been good. We particularly liked Laxmi villas palace in Bharatpur. The hotel in Jaipur was quite special too. We loved the Neem hotel in New Delhi, a quiet retreat from the noise and bustle of New Delhi.
Overall, our holiday experience in India was great. Thank you Tropical Lanka Getaways!”

“The services provided by Tropical Lanka Getaways were excellent which made my overall holiday experience in Sri Lanka memorable. My cycling tour was very well organised and was tailored to my needs. The selection of accommodation was great. Heritance Kandalama was fantastic and probably the best I’ve ever stayed in! Cycling through the back roads was great too. Needless to say, the Sri Lankan food was so good. Thanks again for organising everything so well for my tour!”
