Fabulous day, a real slice of Sri Lanka - What a lovely day and a great Galle day tour with a river safari and so much more! We were picked up early with Jonathon waiting for us in reception when we got there, and we were early too. Along with our driver, (apologies, I have forgotten his name) I have limited mobility and use a stick but it wasn’t a problem as at every turn Jonathon and our driver were there to help. We enjoyed visiting the turtle hatchery and finding out about the important work they do there to help protect and nurture baby turtles and also look after injured turtles. Then off to the river safari, which was great fun and really interesting, with stops at Cinnamon island and a visit to the Buddha island too. With a trip through the mangroves and across the massive basin of the river which is as big as a lake. We then visited the Moonstone Gem mine which was very informative too. A quick stop at the Tsunami photo record museum, very moving and then on to a great stop for a delicious lunch. Then to Galle first to see how the uniques stilt fishing happens and then onto see the Dutch Fort at Galle, Jonathon yet again providing interesting information about the history of the port itself and of the Dutch fort. It was so hot but they managed to make it very easy for us to get a flavour of the place and also with a special stop off for my husband to see where the cricket test matches are played from within the fort! Both Jonathon and our driver couldn’t have done any more, they were great. We can’t thank Tony’s Tours enough for a fantastic day and highly recommend them.Update. I stupidly left my hat in the car when we returned to the hotel but it was returned to me at our hotel within 30 minutes. Thanks again
