Karen and Rohan organised a fantastic holiday for us. We are a group of 3 well travelled married couples in our sixties visiting Sri Lanka for the first time.

We recently sent an enquiry to Shangri-Lanka and were unfortunately told that they were fully booked (book a few months in advance!!!). However, Karen was so incredibly helpful in suggesting other options and providing advice on the local and wider area that I felt I just had to submit this review.
