Highlights
  • Visit Sinharaja rainforest - A half day hike in the Sinharaja virgin rainforest, will take you through the thick canopy of trees along forest trails to the Kekuna Ella waterfall where there is a deep pool for swimming.

An easy level trail will take 3 - 4 hours and you will be out of the jungle before lunch. Travelers should expect some torrential rain from time to time and leeches are in abundance during the rainy season, but proper clothing will protect you from the leeches.

Amazing tour! 100% recommended!!!!! - We booked the tour around the forest with them and it was amazing! I totally recommend it. It was 35$ per person and it includes the entrance to the forest, food, water, anti- leeches socks and a really great tour. Our tour guide was Sanjeewa, he is a naturalist and he has so much knowledge about the different species. He showed us many different animals and brought us to different places, even to swim in a waterfall. It was truly a great experience and we can’t recommend it more.

Great experience 10/10 - Prasad arranged a taxi to a nearby village for a good price and then picked me up to the track. The guide was excellent and was able to spot a lot of cool animals like snakes, lizards, spiders etc. Great experience overall 10/10. Would come again and do a different track next year :)

Well worth the visit 10/10 - Was debating whether to do a trip to Sinharaja but it was well worth it. Tour operator organised taxi from Galle and back for very reasonable price. Tour guide, Sugara, was amazing and very knowledgeable of the forest. The excursion was also very reasonably priced. We were provided a meal and drinks as well and the host was very accommodating. Overall an amazing experience, topped off with the trip to the waterfall at the end.

Wonderful Experienece @ Sinharaja Rain-forest - We detoured & accidentally ended up at the SInharaja. But had the adventure of a life time exploring the Rain-forest, Beautiful Waterfalls and some Endemic & rare Species. Thank you Asela & Siril for experience & the outstanding knowledge you possessed and shared.

Great tour - We had a great experience on this tour. Very professional guide, he answered all of our questions and gave a lot of information about the vegetation and the animals. He had an eye for spotting even the most camouflaged animals. Very beautiful

Beautiful walk with fantastic guide! - Went for this fantastic walk into the beautiful Sinharaja Rainforest. You are required to have a guide and Explore Sinharaja organised the best guide ever! He uncovered so many little creatures that I would never have seen and spoke really good english too. The waterfall was beautiful and lots of blue butterflies were there. Went swimming in this cool pond. The tour was so well organised, I'd definately recommend these guys to do the Sinharaja hike, really great.

Leeches, leeches, leeches. - Many leeches (4 every minute on your shoes), Very difficult to look around, because of all the leeches at you. Very simple lunch.
