A private 4-day Sri Lanka highlights tour from Colombo, packing Sigiriya, Kandy, tea country, Yala, Galle Fort, and beach time into one smooth plan.
“Innholdsrik rundreise der man har mulighet å se mye på kort tid. Kan bli travelt om man bruker for mye tid på hvert sted, men for oss passet det perfekt. Vår sjåfør Presenne kjørte oss kjapt mellom de ulike severdighetene. Han ordnet med alt av logistikk og vi følte oss ivaretatt. Hotellene og middagene var veldig bra. Det eneste er at han kunne vært litt flinkere på engelsk og informert oss om de ulike stedene. Heldigvis hadde jeg lest meg opp på egen hånd i forkant. På to av severdighetene hadde selskapet bestilt egen guide til oss og de var kjempeflinke.”
