Vacation in Sri Lanka - My family and I had a fantastic trip to Sri Lanka, where the views were breathtaking and the weather was lovely. I am really thankful to Ceylon Empire Travels for ensuring that we would see the best locations of Sri Lanka and learn more about their culture. I am especially grateful to Ms. Thulakshi who helped plan this trip and to our guide, Mr Chathu who took us all around the beautiful locations in Sri Lanka, giving us all kinds of information about their culture and history. He was really friendly, took us to the best places to eat(the food was amazing) and maintained an engaging conversation. The hotels we stayed at were pretty great too, they provided us with delicious buffet as well. I would totally recommend planning your trip with Ceylon Empire Travels as they made my trip quite memorable and unforgettable.

Highly recommended travel group - Awesome service by Ceylon Empire. We had a wonderful trip arranged by them (Numata, Isu and Oshada) . Friendly staff who were always prompt in answering all our questions and concerns. We had an awesome tour guide (Mr.Subashana) who takes us to all places and provide great explanation. He drove us safely the whole trip. He is punctual and covered all places as promised in our iternary. He took care of our safety at all times. We will definitely recommend Ceylon Empire to our friends who wants to travel to Sri Lanka in the future.

Ceylon wonderland with Sam is just awesome - Without doubt one of the favourite trip we ever had all thanks to Sachethana and Sam.
Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed by Oshada (very humble person) and Guide Sam (best person you could ever get anywhere), our names were mentioned on the board and we felt welcomed and with such a friendly atmosphere we had a fantastic start! The guide and tour was extremely good, very flexible (appreciate this!) and for that he deserves a special thanks. As soon as we arrived We wanted to have warm water for baby food and Oshada helped us with that. Not only that but he helped us with Simcard purchase too. We had a 7 night and 6 day tour planned with the help of Sachethana Kavindi. She not only gave us a good deal but also made arrangements as per our liking. And kept in touch throughout the tour to check if we are comfortable or not.
Sam is such a warm personality and highly motivated guide (recommendable!). I truly enjoyed interacting with him throughout the tour. He was our driver/guide but became very good friend over the time. My wife and I was worried about the new place considering we were travelling with small daughter but the way Sam deals with the necessity and gives a helping hand in managing her was coomandable. He has vast knowledge of the places we travelled and gives good insights about the same which adds cheery on the top.
The atmosphere is Sri Lanka is so special that it really felt like home to all of us. All respect for Sam and Sachethana who does a great job there; a true sample of an excellent tour planned and a guide.
Many thanks again and I recommend Sam to everyone whenever you are planning Sri Lanka tour.

Best tour company in Sri Lanka! - Just finished a 7D6N tour with Ceylon Empire and I would definitely recommend them! Right from the beginning my tour coordinator Kithari was really helpful in helping me curate my itinerary to accomodate my 70 year old dad. In comparing their rates with other tours, I found Ceylon Empire to be incredibly price competitive without compromising quality of hotels, services and experiences. My tour guide was Onel who was thoughtful, kind and full of energy throughout our tour! He was attentive to my dad's needs (i.e. walking with him through hilly grounds) and would accommodate any request of ours to stop for food or visit a temple. The whole tour experience from my first Whatsapp till the end of my trip was lovely thanks to Kithari and Onel!!

Amazing day and well organised - Great day trip from Colombo. It’s a long 7-8 round trip from Colombo but we felt in safe hands with Onel as our driver. He met us promptly at 6.30am for the transfer to Sigiriya. Very comfortable AC car.
Onel made sure we got our tickets at the Sigiriya entrance and we did the walk by ourselves. It’s an incredible place.
Lunch was in a traditional Sri Lankan rural house cooked on wood burning stoves. We were shown how it was prepared and also helped grind coconut and rice.
After that there was the silk then batik and then gem stone demonstrations. These as expected have shops attached. We chose to skip the gemstones and Onel kindly respected that. He also on request kindly found us a mango seller. They were delicious!
Last stop was the Cave temple… just incredible!
It’s quite expensive but a fantastic day which was well organised.

Loved SriLanka - Sri Lanka was a pleasant surprise. Ceylon Empire Travels made it extra special, luxurious and comfortable for us. Roshan Parera was our tour guide and we had a gala time traveling with him. Special thanks to Pabsara for arranging the entire itinerary and taking care of us right from day 1.
