Paradise with a Smile

My last visit to Sri Lanka was in September 2006, I can only describe this country as a traveller’s paradise waiting to be explored. My visit incorporated a rich variety of experiences from ancient cities, religious temples, dense jungle and vegetation teeming with wildlife to exotic beaches and bustling towns.

My experience of Sri Lanka was enhanced by the local people, they welcome visitors with open arms and their hospitable nature means they are only too happy to go out of their way to ensure your visit is memorable. I was completely overwhelmed by Sri Lanka, the highlight of my visit was undoubtedly the elephant orphanage at Pinawela, being able to get so close to these amazing animals is an experience that is hard to beat and is not to be missed when visiting this beautiful country.

“I love Sri Lanka for its friendly, diverse culture. I was truly amazed by the amount of nature we experienced on safari in Dambula National Park. Along with our English speaking guide and a guide from the Park, it was fantastic, from the wildlife and plants to the salt lakes that had an eiry pink glow enhanced by the fantastic sunset. I was thrilled to see the elephants in their own habitat just going about their business kicking up the turf to get to the grass for a snack”.

Sri Lanka is a special holiday destination because of its mixture of culture, history and wildlife. The ideal destination for family holidays, weddings, honeymoons, and golfing trips and I would highly recommend it to anyone.
