About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Go471710728430 contributionsOff2Sri Lanka Tours made our stay and tour very pleasant. We will wholeheartedly recommend this company.Off2Sri Lanka Tours was recommended to us as an excellent company who cares for their customers. This is absolutely true. From the beginning to the end of our tour including the airport pick up and drop off, we were looked after very well. Every detail and request made by us accommodated. Every change we had to make even at very short notice was handled patiently and with understanding. The van was very comfortable with Air-Conditioning and seat belts. The tour guide drove safely. Our tour guide was a polite, kind and a caring person. He helped my mother who is disabled to get into the van and out. He provided so much of help so that she was able to join us on our tour. Always willing and with a smile. He went the ‘extra mile’ to help us. He was very knowledgeable about the local sites. He organised a safari for all of us which was the high point for our children. When we arrived at the airport after a long flight we were met with garlands. Punctuality was another positive key aspect of this company. Another detail was they provided water bottles in the van which was a caring aspect. Always swift to respond to texts and calls. We will wholeheartedly recommend this company, especially those traveling with families.Written August 26, 2024

- Heathcal0 contributionsHighly recommend for peace of mind holidayFrom the beginning of our holiday planning Menaka was really great. I'd already booked accomodation and when making enquries some other companies did not seem as interested in providing a car and driver for our own itinerary. Menaka could not have been more helpful. He clearly understood our brief and was forthcoming with suggestions for improving our itinerary. We felt very reassured booking with Off2Sri Lanka tours. Our wonderful driver Hemantha met us in the early hours of the morning due to flight delays. He was caring, helpful, knowledgeable and a good driver for the 9 days of our trip to Sri Lanka. Hemantha also had a wonderful sense of humour, and had great enthusiasm for his job and country. We felt very safe with his driving skills. It was lovely that Menaka also checked in with us regularly to ensure everything was going well.Written July 16, 2024
- lukej3200 contributionsIncredible trip with many lifelong memoriesOur 7-night private guided tour of Sri Lanka was absolutely phenomenal! Hemantha, our guide and driver, was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, making the trip unforgettable. We explored Pidurangala Rock at Sigiriya and marveled at the breathtaking views. Yala National Park was a highlight, where we encountered wild elephants, leopards, and a plethora of other incredible wildlife. Each day was packed with exciting activities, and the stunning scenery and top-class hotels made the experience even more special. This journey exceeded all our expectations and left us with memories to cherish forever!Written July 2, 2024

- 657kalpanav0 contributionsOur Srilanka JourneyWe had been to beautiful Srilanka through off to Srilanka tours. Our trip was so well planned by Maneka. The stay choices were fantastic. Maneka was responsive as through the trip. Our guide Hemantha was knowledgeable and fluent with English. He was eager to share all the information and enthusiastic to drive is around. He was very prompt and punctual. We had senior citizens traveling with us. The itinerary was designed to their convenience. We had everything set up from water to umbrellas. We visited Kandy, newereliya, Ella, Yala and Bentota. It was beautiful. Maneka and Hemantha made it even more memorable. Highly recommendedWritten June 13, 2024
- tharshikaj20230 contributionsGreat experience up north of SrilankaWe had a great time yet again with Menaka travel organisation in a short notice. Unbeliavable professional ethics displayed by the travel agency! Namal was our driver with high roof van. His driving skills, ability to navigate routes and punctuality are highly commendable! We will definitely choose Off2Srilanka again in our next tripWritten June 1, 2024
- issabatu0 contributionsHonest, Trustworthy, Attentive, Top-notchWhile I visited Sri Lanka I used Off2Srinka to take my parents on a 5 day trip to Anuradhapura, Jaffna and Trinco. My friend in Sri Lanka coordinate with Menaka and was able to come up with a customized itinerary to suite the needs of mine and my parents. Namal was our driver and he took care of us really well. We had to cut short our trip on the 3rd day due to a medical emergency and Namal was able to understand the urgency and drive us back from Jaffna to Colombo intime. During our journey Menaka used to check upon our well being and he adjusted the final price even without us requesting for any price adjustment. These kinds of acts show the integrity and the honesty of Menaka and how he operates his tour company. I will be utilizing off2srilanka for my future holidays in Sri Lanka and have already started recommending them to my friends over here.Written May 27, 2024
- pjandpavi0 contributionsTop notch from start to finishMenaka is fantastic! I had my own idea of an itinerary and some places to stay. I emailed him a lengthy email with specifics of what I required. He came back to me with a comprehensive email responding fully and providing quotes. The communication throughout which followed was smooth. He was available for queries as and when required. The trip itself was smooth from pickup to end. The driver was a helpful guide through the trip as well. I will definitely link back with Menaka and off2srilanka when I return to Sri Lanka in the future.Written April 28, 2024
- british_in_malysia0 contributionsGreat company for Sri Lanka driverWe hired a driver for our two week trip, based on a recommendation from a friend, and we weren’t disappointed. The company were professional and accommodating at all times. Our driver, Hemantha, was knowledgeable, friendly, and very safe on the roads. He pointed out all the flora and fauna en route, took us to great local restaurants, and acted as a guide at some of the areas. His English was impeccable. We had a brilliant trip to Sri Lanka, and our driver only added to the experience. Highly recommend.Written April 22, 2024
- SimonDavina0 contributions12 day custom private tour - marvellous!My 82 year old mum, husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Sri Lanka with Off 2 Sri Lanka Tours. I found this tour company on Trip Advisor, then worked with Menaka from Off2SriLankaTours via email to developed a tailored itinerary 12 day focusing on our interests which were food experiences, architecture, colonial history, spices and fabulous accommodation. At Mum’s request, we made one jewellery store stop (a place our wonderful guide Hemantha described as a place his grandmother would go to buy), visited the fertile highlands where we took the iconic train trip from Ella, had a private tour of a tea factory, awoke to amazing views with passing clouds. Then we hit the coast where we swam in the balmy turquoise Indian Ocean, gazed at stilt fisherman over breakfast, ate at a seafood restaurant where you select live mudcrab and other seafood, released baby turtles (bucket list tick) visited the home and country estate of the acclaimed architect Geoffrey Bawa, had our head blown off at a roadside traditional Sri Lankan eatery (Hemantha did warn us the chilli was extremely HOT. HOT). Walked in the footsteps of Dutch spice traders Galle Fort, then one of Colombo - highly recommend this tour company if you’re wanting a private tailored tour. Hemantha, our fabulous guide and driver offered amusing and insightful support and guidance throughout our trip, we had a relaxed but suitably stimulating trip supported by Menaka and Hemantha.Written April 6, 2024

My son and I visited in Sri Lankan in August. We arranged all our travel arrangements including making hotel reservations threw Off 2 Sri Lankan Private Tours. Everything was arranged perfectly and to our satisfaction by Menaka who I believe is one of the partners of Off 2 Sri Lankan Private Tours. Also, he arranged a car with the driver, and the driver’s name is Ashoka who is very reliable and responsible who is also our tour guide. My son I were very happy with their services and will not hesitate to recommend to anyone who needs a reliable tour company in Sri Lanka. We are planning to visit again in 2025 and we will be happy to go back to this travel agency for all our travel needs when we return. Please keep up the good work Menaka.

My best of Sri Lanka, intrepid tour was just the best.
My guide Mahendra, went beyond what was I expected as a guide. He was so knowledgeable, responsible patient, kind and caring.
What we saw and did was so interesting, varied and involved local involvement.
We rode, walked and climbed in a very safe and well paced time with breaks and alternative options if you didn’t feel up to the adventure on the day.
When we went on the local bus and trains. Our luggage was taken by our mini bus so we were unencumbered in order to have the opportunity to mix and chat with the locals.
All transport was immaculately clean and safe to travel within.
The local people were so friendly, helpful and willing to assist in any way without asking for compensation.
We were able to eat salads and have ice in drinks which you fear having in other Asian countries.
Intrepid had bulk water containers in our bus and hotels for refilling our water bottles we bought from home.
We were provided with cold fruit on returning to our bus from an active activity and Mahendra asked that we have cold flannels provided.
Our accommodation was superb and had pools to flop into in our free time.
I could not have asked for more.

I couldn’t recommend this company enough. We enquired about it in February for our honeymoon and Menaka was amazing from the outset. He gave great advice on what to do and where to go and told us exactly what we needed to do to travel to Sri Lanka. He was also very friendly and timely in his responses. He booked everything for us and took any stress out of booking the honeymoon.
When we arrived at Colombo we were met with our driver/tour guide Hemanthe, who was brilliant. He was very friendly, helpful and made our trip to Sri Lanka so good. He took all of the stress out of our trip and made us feel at ease immediately. He was very knowledgeable and made things so easy for us. He was a great tour guide and he showed us so many amazing things Sri Lanka had to offer. It was great getting to know him during the trip and we loved every second of it. Sri Lanka is by far one of the best places I’ve ever been and off 2 Sri Lanka tours made our honeymoon event better!
Thanks!

We have hired a driver via Off 2 Sri Lanka to accompany us during our 3 week trip with our family of 5. The communication with the manager of the office (Menaka) before the trip was very easy. He was fast, responsive and flexible. I booked all the accomodation myself, showed him our schedule and he made a few usefull suggestions. We were picked up from the airport by Menaka and our driver Ashoka in the middle of the night and they welcomed us with flowers! Ashoka was an excellent /safe driver and great company in many ways. He has a friendly cheerfull character (important if you spend 3 weeks together!). Ashoka accompanied us during many excursions, both culture and nature oriented. Sometimes on the basis of our proposals, sometimes suggestions from his site. Always in close alignment. His knowledge of Sri lankan history and culture is great. But we especially appreciated his knowledge of nature, wildlife and birds. Birding and photography are his hobbies and he took us to many places with rare and shy birds. He knows literally every bird and shared all his beautiful pictures made during the trip with us afterwards.

Off2SriLanka gave us a trip of a lifetime. Namal, our guide, picked us up from the airport and from day one he was concerned, flexible and a great guide.
Menaka helped out during the planning of the trip. We had our itenary in mind and he gave great suggestions.
We travelled with a 4 and 5 year old which worked well.
Highly recommend Off2srilanka if you are planning a visit in Sri Lanka!
(We did this in 2018!)
