Tours and Day Trips from Hikkaduwa 2026: Turtles, Galle, Safaris, Prices

We got back yesterday from a two-day tour with an overnight stay at the Elephant Bay hotel and the climb up Sigiriya (choose this rock for the climb). It was AWESOME!!! Simply the best tour! Our guide Denis (Dinesh) was a genius. He kept us laughing the whole way, told us the history of Sri Lanka, answered all our questions, shared lots of interesting facts and helped us with photos and videos! Every stop on the tour was chosen very well, and everything felt warm and personal. A special thank you to our driver Shalinda, who got us there safely and with style! Emotions for a year ahead, maybe for a lifetime! These two days felt like we had travelled for a week across different countries, with different climates, nature and architecture, all in one small island, Sri Lanka.

We loved the Sigiriya Heart of Sri Lanka tour! It was beautifully organized. We saw an incredible number of sights and felt the true spirit of this amazing country. A special thank you for helping us with the most important moment of our trip: a marriage proposal at the top of Sigiriya. Choosing the perfect moment and spot among one of the wonders of the world made the day truly unforgettable. A special highlight was our night at Mountain Heavens. Waking up to step onto the balcony and see elephants wandering below was wonderful! What made the trip perfect was our guide Yasir, the heart of the tour :) He shared fascinating stories at every stop, knew the best photo angles, and anticipated what we needed. His care, attention and great sense of humour created a friendly, comfortable atmosphere. We felt completely safe, as if we were travelling with an old friend. Thank you, Yasir and the whole team! We will definitely recommend you to our friends!

Sharing our impressions on the way home from the wonderful two-day Heart of Sri Lanka tour! Other reviews already say a lot about the tour itself, so we would like to describe what we experienced thanks to our guide Yasir and driver Usama. A few words about the journey: the car was comfortable and new, the air conditioning saved us the whole way, and despite the winding mountain roads, the driver followed every traffic rule, just like a European driver. But a special thank you goes to Yasir. He helped us with every little question throughout the trip. He is very attentive and caring. When we were being pushed to buy something expensive, he took us to another place where the same item was cheaper. At the tea factory, we were offered only one type of tea for tasting. Yasir stood up for us, and in the end we got to try all the varieties. On the way, he showed us many affordable places to get tasty food and fruit. Yasir is also a very interesting person. We chatted for both days about his country's culture and compared it with ours. His English is excellent, he is deeply knowledgeable and a true polyglot. He even gets our memes :) To our surprise, Yasir added variety to our programme. At the end of the second day, we visited a village where we saw traditional village life and customs, and we were treated to traditional food and sweets. We even got to crack a coconut 🥥 And we must mention that Yasir is a professional photographer. The photos in this message are his. We are now approaching our villa to rest after such an intense and emotional programme. Many thanks to the organizers, Yasir, Usama and the local people of Sri Lanka!

We are absolutely thrilled with the one-day YALA SAFARI + ELLA tour! It was an incredible adventure with so many vivid memories. We especially want to thank our guide Ishar. He was simply wonderful! Ishar is a true professional. He speaks excellent English and has deep knowledge of Sri Lankan history, culture and nature. Thanks to him, the tour was not just sightseeing but an exciting journey into the world of this amazing country. The safari in Yala National Park impressed me the most. Four hours flew by in an instant! We saw a huge variety of wildlife: majestic elephants, a leopard (it was truly incredible!), deer, buffalo, monkeys, crocodiles, monitor lizards and many beautiful birds. Ishar and the safari driver knew exactly where to find the most interesting spots and told us about the animals' habits, which made the safari even more exciting. Ravana Falls, Little Adam's Peak, the Nine Arch Bridge, the train ride and the tea plantation were all lovely, but the Yala safari was the true highlight of the tour. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see the real Sri Lanka and create unforgettable memories. And be sure to ask for Ishar as your guide (by the way, he is from Belarus)! You won't regret it. Thank you for a wonderful day!

We have just returned from the Galle Fort + 🛶 River Safari tour! It was fantastic. I recommend it to everyone! Of course, a lot depends on the guide. Ours was beyond praise. His name is MANO. He speaks excellent English, knows the history of Sri Lanka very well, answers all our questions, makes subtle jokes that fit perfectly, and takes professional photos. In short, we are very happy with both the organization of the tour and how it was run! Special thanks to the driver too! The tour itself is amazing! 🔥🔥🔥 We liked absolutely everything!!! THANK YOU!

Hello! We chose the one-day Kandy tour. It was very interesting and full, and it was led by a professional English-speaking guide, Denish. Denish is a very friendly, skilled and conscientious guide with a great sense of humour. If you want unforgettable travels and plenty of knowledge and impressions of Sri Lanka, we are sure you should contact this company! You will definitely not be bored.

Hello, I had an amazing 3-day tour in Sri Lanka, thanks to our fantastic tour guide and driver. Our tour guide, Mr Deshan, was incredibly knowledgeable, kind and caring. He did everything to make sure every part of the trip was enjoyable, informative and perfectly organized. The driver, Mr Jagath, was equally wonderful: always punctual, professional, and he made us feel comfortable throughout the journey. Together, they made this trip truly unforgettable. I highly recommend them to anyone visiting Sri Lanka. You'll be in great hands!
