“A great trip, very well organized and, with the exception of the flight home, ran like clockwork. Incredibly friendly people. Beautiful and varied scenery. Great wildlife! Nihal – where can I start! Suffice to say this trip would not have been the same without him. A mine of information and a true love of his country, he taught us so much about the culture and the wildlife.”

“We had a terrific family adventure holiday to Sri Lanka. Thank you for listening to our brief and helping us execute it. We wanted special places to stay, interesting places to visit, fun activities for the kids (and us), and with sustainable travel at the heart. The trip to the school was a highlight for me and a unique cultural exchange for our children.”
