We were on a two-day field trip the other day. It was nice, there was a nice company, a very busy program, almost everything except Ramboda Falls, but it's not critical. There were good and pleasant experiences of the tour, the train took 40 minutes, and most other companies 20 minutes each. A nice room and hotel where overnight stay. We got a lot of vivid emotions. Our guide Kolya called us affectionately children, it was so sweet 😁 told everything, it was interesting. I have long chosen who we should go exrusion with before going to Sri, but this agency recommended us friends who also went with them a year ago)), now we will also recommend to our acquaintances. Because the price quality is fully matched. Also, we asked the guys to take us to Ridiagamu safari park and they agreed, as not everyone drives either, saw tigers, lions that are not in Yala, for example)) We wish prosperity and good customers to Masha and her company 💯💫❤️

Very professional and organised. Gave us time to select the trip that was best suited to us! Met by the company on the morning and introduced to our driver, travelled to yala in a comfortable car which felt very safe. We stopped for lunch then we were picked up by jeep driver who was brilliant and tried to show us as many animals as possible and even went back to the leopard so that we could have a better view which then risked leaving the park late and losing his license for a week! Luckily we exited with a minute to spare but it was incredibly kind of him to have done this (we didn't ask, he was just extremely thoughtful!). Met back at hotel by new berlin tours again to ensure we enjoyed our day! Couldn't ask for a better company to book with, very impressed! The company and the jeep driver had very good English which we were really pleased/grateful to hear as we understand there may not be so many English tourists as other countries!
TIP: book the private safari, it is 1000% worth it

We were last here six years ago and have therefore now booked excursions with New Berlin Tours again in December 2024. Malisha and her brother run their parents' business and have very good offers. Especially the Lagoon Safari as well as an individual trip to Ella, Little Adam’s Peak and Yala brought us a lot of fun. The drivers drive very safely and especially Isso very relaxed. The handling of the excursions is very straightforward, it works very well.

A great trip to Yala Safari Park in Sri Lanka. I really liked the attitude of the Russian-speaking manager named Masha. We selected the desired date and time and got a favorable price cheaper than the hotel guide. The excursion itself was very impressive with the large number of animals we saw in the wild. I also really liked the food at the local cafe where they took us for lunch and dinner. In general, thank you very much, we are going on a two-day excursion tomorrow, I will leave a review after.

Went with this travel agency on a 2 day tour of Sri Lanka - the experience is amazing! 🤩 See everything and more😁 Sigiriya, 9-tary bridge, waterfalls, Hindu and Buddhist temples, tea plantations and factory, different animals (fed monkeys). Yes, it may be a little hard, but it is worth it and realized, by the way, why it is better to go for a 2-day: all the sights are far from the resort areas (3-4 hours drive), respectively every time , if separately, something to watch , and experience this road, well just nothing! And I also want to mention the hotel that slept in the views just gorgeous 🔥🔥🔥
In general, I thank Masha very much for organizing the tour, our guide (didn't remember the name🙏) can clearly see that he wants to show us his country and showed us really more than stated, as well as the driver who was also with us these 2 days🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
You guys are doing great, wish you prosperity and continue to also delight tourists with your tours🌸🌸🌸

I've chosen this agency because there're a lot of positive reviews. That's why I was really disappointed because of what happened. I've contacted their manager on WhatsApp (this contact was on official website) and booked whale watching for the next day at 5 a.m. The manager was nice and answered all of my questions. I've also asked about meeting point and he said that we would be picked up from our house at 5 a.m. I've sent my exact location on the map and the name of the villa. So we withdrew and woke up at 4 a.m. to have a breakfast and get ready. At 05:20 I sent a message, then I've tried to call - no one answered. Few hours later I've received a message explaining that the driver missed the address and that we have a discount 5 dollars for each if we would join the group next day. I really can't understand how such thing could happen because I've sent my address, villa's name and they had my WhatsApp. Sorry for 1 star review, but this was frustrating. I hope it will be the last time something like this happened with their management

I took a one-day tour to the ancient capital of Kandy. The city is a UNESCO site. My group and I visited the Royal Botanical Gardens, the Temple of the Tooth Relic, and the Royal Palace. The places are very important both for believers and for ordinary tourists. On the way, we stopped at an elephant nursery and had lunch in a beautiful place by the river, watching the elephants bathe. I recommend taking an umbrella - the weather is very changeable and it can rain heavily. Transport should be comfortable. We drove 250km+250km, it’s difficult.

Our journey took place from Oct 9 to Oct 29 2023, our main hotel was Hikka Tranz by Cinnamon in Hikkaduwa. We booked a 3-day tour to Ella, took the train to Haputale, visited Dambulla and climbed Sigiriya, among others. There was a Tuk-Tuk trip to Galle where we stopped at a small spice garden and a silk factory. BTW: The drivers where always great, we never had any issues, never felt unsafe.
In addition we had safaris to
* Udawale National park where we saw many Elephants and also could see the feeding of the younglings
* Yala National park (lucky enough Leopard and Bear included!) and we took the
* Lagoon Boot safari
We visited a small Turtle farm, a Moonstone mile and if that was not enough we also where invited to see and cook with the family of the founder of New Berlin Tours.
Those three weeks where a great experience not only to me. Friendly people, great food and landscape. Perfectly organized and put together for a prize that can't hardly be beaten.
Highly recommended!

We have been traveling with this company for several years now , the guys are really trying, fulfilling all even the most unusual requests.
The driver was careful and drove us carefully for 2 days. Guides Rohana and Omal talked a lot and wholeheartedly about the history of , traditions .

I highly recommend New Berlin Tours. We went on all our trips with them - Yala National Park, River Safari, Tsunami Museum, waterfalls. Then a 2 day trip to Ella which was amazing! Accommodation in a super hotel with a beautiful view and food. The guide was professional. Den is a reliable person, he adapts everything to your requirements and has really unbeatable prices.
That's why we also used a car with a driver from him during our travel in Sri Lanka, because we were offered a super price that no one else offered us. I really highly recommend it. Den will accommodate you in everything, and whatever you agree on, he will fulfill it, and he also has great prices! Thank you for a great experience!

Question to those traveling with New Berlin Tours before: did you pay the reservation fee to a bank account in China? I got such request for 80% of the tour price and it seems a bit strange to me...
Written October 16, 2018
no we never asked to put any transfers to any accounts in china. please report that. we already reported.
