4 /5

(Written on 22 Oct, 2024)

I recently had the pleasure of joining a tour organized by SHINE LANKA to SRI LANKA, and I can’t recommend them highly enough! From start to finish, the experience was seamless and enriching. The itin (Read More)erary was well-planned, allowing us to see all the highlights. The accommodations were comfortable, and the transportation was always on time, making it easy to relax and enjoy the journey. Overall, SHINE LANKA met my expectations. Whether you’re a seasoned traveler or looking to explore a new destination, I highly recommend booking with them. The chauffeur could have given more information about the place.

5 /5

(Written on 27 Sep, 2024)

We embarked on a 6N7D trip to Sri Lanka that covered Colombo, Kandy, Nuwara Eliya and Bentota. There were many memorable experiences like the visit to the Elephant Orphanage, the Moon Plains, The Bird (Read More) Sanctuary, the Turtle Conservation Centre, and the various water sports in bentota, which the kids enjoyed thoroughly. The trip was also made memorable by our driver and tour guide, Mr. Rashid Ali, who was knowledgeable, soft-spoken, and very helpful. He took us to good spots, asked us to engage with good vendors and suggested great food during our trip. Overall, the experience was smooth, the hotels in the package were great and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Thank you for a good time. Food options at Earl's Reef, Bentota were dismal.
