We visted Sri Lanka for a 10 days tour from 26 Dec to 4th Jan. The tour was planned by Mr. Hashan Perera of Summer Oceanic travels. We were received at the airport by Mr.Edward (Our guide and driver for the tour). After arrival at Colombo we proceeded to Dambulla via Pinnawela elephant orphanage.
Our Tour was very nicely arranged by Mr Hashan and Mr.Edward. Both of them went out of their way to accommodate the small requests of my family.
We visted Sigriya, Kandy, Nuwara Eliya, Kithugala, Bentota and Colombo during our trip. All the hotels arranged were good and Summer Oceanic was able to get us a very good price.
All the places we visted had something different to offer from White water Rafting at Kithugala, Buddhist temples and cave paintings at Dambulla and Kandy, Tea gardens and waterfalls in Nuwara Eliya to the beaches and water sports in Bentota.
We tried Paramotoring and snorkeling at Bentota. .. it's was an amazing experience.
We concluded our tour of the Paradise Island with our last day in Colombo.
Hashan came to visit us at the airport with a gift . It was very sweet gesture on his part.
Once again I would like to thank Mr. Hashan and Edward for the great time we had in Sri Lanka. We are already planning for another tour soon to visit the places we missed out during this trip.
I will strongly recommend my friends to use Summer Oceanic travels for their holidays to Sri Lanka.

We have spent two wonderful weeks through Sri Lanka with our 2 kids, 7 and 13 years old. Each day, each area was different: from the temples and the Sigiriya Rock to the nice beaches, through the marvellous mood of the tea plantations or the safaris in Yala...For sure, our so nice guide Jagath has been of most importance for this : driving us perfectly through the difficult roads, procuring precious advices and finding us the good adresses for lunchtime...All of us 4 have come back with many stars in the head and only one idea : to live such a nice experience again!

We had a good experience with our driver from Hikkadua to Udawalawe National Park. Very knowledgeable and willing to take the time to see different sites. Also very patient with our loud kids. Bus was in good condition and had working seat belts.

Have spent 2 great weeks in Sri Lanka touring with Edward of Care Tours.
Edward went out of his way to assist, was highly informative, particularly with nature and history of SL.
We did have some confusion over costs of train tickets from Kandy. Were advised by the company train was fully booked and we had to pay more to ensure a seat, however, once on the train, the carriage was half empty and other passengers advised they paid only a day before a fraction of the price we paid. Strange.
The car was excellently maintaine$ and well driven.

Dear Stephen,
Thank you very much for selecting us as your service provider and i was a pleasure to serve you.
Small clarification about the train tickets,
We did not say the train is fully booked, but as per our experience we know that the trains likely to be filled (it is a usual thing in Sri Lanka) and many times our guest had to travel by standing for whole 4 hours and guest became really tried at the end of the journey. that is why we advise to book the seats in advance.
"Train was empty", could be you are lucky enough to travel without crowd, but most of the time (95%) Sri Lankan trains are crowed, and sometimes it is very difficult to get to the train due to heavy crowd up to the entrance door, and as a responsible company we have to think and anticipate those things and that way we advice you to book the train tickets in advance.
Apologies for the too long answer.
Thank you again Hope to see you soon again in Sri Lanka

Wanted to look for a driver cum guide for our 8 days Sri Lanka trip and found Care Tours Sri Lanka online (car rental with driver). Care Tours (we liased with Hashan Perera) is a subsidiary of Summer Oceanic Travels.j
Our assigned driver cum guide, Mr Ramyasiri, is an experienced and safe driver (over 30 years of experience) and he has an eye to spot nature's beauty for exampls we saw 2 hornbills along the journey and a camofledged eagle on a tree branch.
Just take note to check the hotel that the agent booked prior to the travel. It may differ from proposed itinerary. We managed to spot the error and amended booking was done.
Otherwise, we had a great trip to see beautiful Sri Lanka and their people. A developing country with a first world citizens (values and culture). Well done Sri Lanka.

A group of 8 Australians travelled through Sri Lanka for 17 days on a private tour. We had the most amazing time in a fabulous little paradise. Amazing places to visit. Excellent hotels. Our guide Mr Thushara and his driver and helper were absolutely excellent in every way. Abercrombie & Kent were so good to deal with and met all our needs in every way. Such value for money. A note of warning - because wine is quite expensive in Sri Lank, one of our group took a red wine bladder and it burst in his case !!!! Not good! Put Sri Lanka on your "bucket list". Diane Kelly

For the 10 days vacation to Sri Lanka, made all hotel bookings and wanted to get little bit of guiding and transport services, as we could not find an online source. One of my fiend suggested me Holiday Sri Lanka Tour.
The way they advised were really professional and helpful to plan our tour and I decided to get the transport services from them only for 20% payment upfront.
Upon arrival Mr. Hashan gave us a worm welcome at airport.
Our driver was an excellent and very humble guy also had a nice car. He guided us very well and also found some good restaurants whenever we wanted.
During the tour we wanted to visit Ella which was not in our initial plan. Holiday Sri Lanka Tour team promptly helped to make the changes and sudgested us a good hotel and arranged a train ride from Nuwara Eliya to Ella which I thought an excellent service of them.
Final two nights we stayed at beach hotel and enjoyed whale watching and finally came to airport. Hashan and one of their staff members came to see us with some gifts. We reluctantly said good bye to this lovely country and people. Thank you very much Holiday Sri Lanka for planning a good tour for us.

My wife nd I wanted to blend our holiday with adventure activities plus some popular site visits. We got a great help from Holiday Sri Lanka in this regard and they listen to our requirement, not pushy and allowed us to decide what we wanted and finally we got a customized tour package for what actually we were looking for. Our tour was amazing and we loved it. It was really interesting to meet them at the arrival and our driver Jayasiha was excellent and he was very careful & decent. Definitely I recommend Holiday Sri Lanka tour as their service is excellent and very quick.

Three of us wanted to book a private tour to Sri Lanka, actually we had a short time as we had not planned this tour in advance. We made few inquiries to some travel operators and among them we felt a differentiation about Holiday Sri Lankan tour and finally decided to go with them really because of the price they offered. However we had no much confidence until we met them at the airport. The meeting at the arrival was very warm and they welcome us very well and from that point we had to remove all doubt and we realized our choice is correct and Holiday Sri Lankan did all to prove it day by day. Our driver and vehicle was very good and we got what we were promised by the company and that’s all what we needed. During the tour we needed some assistance for some changes and Holiday sri lankan tour was flexible to manage it for us in a friendly manner. We wanted some extra services we had not requested at the beginning and our charges were very reasonable. Among the highlights of our tour,, the visit to tea factory and plantation, white water rafting, trekking and finally the safari in Yala to which all of us loved very much. Actually we are happy about Holiday Sri Lanka tour and wish them all the best!! Thanks you very much to your team.
