“As I know people can have concerns, it is important to say that we felt completely safe at all times in Sri Lanka, including on our final weekend which coincided with the September 2024 general election and vote count. This was one of the best holidays we have ever had, so if you're thinking of going, do! You won't be disappointed!”

“I really enjoyed my trip to Sri Lanka. What really helped to make the trip is Kapila was very accommodating and I got to see a lot of birds. People were very friendly and we enjoyed the food. The weather was great and as we discussed, we went off tourist season so there were no crowds to speak of which we really appreciated.”

“In general, the holiday was excellent with no complaints except according to our itinerary we were doing the 26km bike ride but the guide said it was only the 12km one. This actually was better for us in the end. Apart from this, the villa was great, the house staff were excellent, all chauffeurs and guides were perfect, food in the villa was amazing and the itinerary that you suggested was just right for us with accurate descriptions.”

“This holiday was exactly what our family needed after the stressful COVID years – we needed a bit of an adventure together, but which was safe & allowed us to reconnect & discover a new country. You’ve helped secure us some lifelong fond memories – thank you so much. We enjoyed the varied scenery, the delicious food, the wildlife but for us, this relaxation was only possible due to our amazing driver [guide] Anura.”

“We chose Tikalanka travel as John really took on board our choices and ideas when we first discussed our visit - and had put together a perfect mix of culture, wildlife and beaches. We would happily recommend Tikalanka to friends!”
