Best experience in Sri Lanka! - Me and my family visited Sri Lanka for the first time in August 2024 and Real Lanka Holidays were booked for our transfers to and from the airport. We also booked a few trips with them to view different places in Sri Lanka like Kandy, Yala National Park and Sigiriya and Dambulla. Real Lanka Holidays were amazing throughout our time in Sri Lanka they went above and beyond in providing an experience of a lifetime. We saw so much of Sri Lanka and made sure we were all okay and even my mum who is 66 years old they made sure she was able to see everything with us. All of the tour guides that we had were friendly, professional and very knowledgeable about all of the locations. They really made the trip very memorable and I couldn’t recommend them more to anyone that is visiting Sri Lanka they are the best company to show you around.

Great tour! - I would really recommend Premil and Real Lankan holidays. We did the 2 day Kandy/ Pidurangala and Minneriya park safari. Communication was really good in arranging the trip and was also a very good price. As it was a private tour with just our family we chose with guidance provided as to what we did and see, which were some great places to visit. A big thank you to our guide Nillanka; as nothing was too much trouble for him and he went out of his way to look after us.

A journey with locals through Sri Lanka - We booked the transfer from Tangalle to Ella in advance online. The process was great and everything went smoothly. A few days before the transfer we were contacted via WhatsApp to finalize everything! Great SERVICE, so we had a number we could call! We also planned the rest of our trip this way! A very nice driver picked us up from the hotel on time and showed us a few things on the way to Ella. From Ella we took the train to Kandy! Best decision as the train was relatively empty. The next day we visited Kandy with our new driver Kamal. We visited some great places with him. The tour of Colombo was also great! Kamal, the tour guide, was very friendly, informative, gave great tips and did his best to make the tour great! We can really recommend it. We would definitely use them again for other tours of Sri Lanka!

Not as expected but a great day! - Quite a bit of driving but the car was comfortable and the diving was good. Feel like there was a miscommunication between trip advisor and the travel company as the time was different and didn’t go to the elephant orphanage, I kept getting different trip titles. Premil my travel guide was great. We gone on very well and it made the trip so much fun. I had a great day!
