What's included in the 7-day tour?

Guided transportation throughout, experienced driver, access to national parks and cultural sites, and accommodations. Confirm meal inclusions (breakfast/lunch/dinner) and entrance fees at booking.

Is wildlife spotting guaranteed?

No. Safaris depend on season, weather, and animal movement. Your guide maximises chances based on current conditions and will visit optimal times of day. Dry season (Oct–Mar) offers better odds.

Do I need a visa for Sri Lanka?

Most nationalities require an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) obtained online before arrival. Check your country's specific requirements at the Sri Lankan immigration website.

What's the fitness level required?

The tour is moderate: some walking in national parks and around cultural sites, plus vehicle travel. Discuss any mobility concerns with the operator at booking.

What's the weather like in the hill country?

Cooler and often misty (60–75°F / 15–24°C) compared to lowlands. Pack a light jacket. Rain possible year-round in highlands; dry season (Oct–Mar) has less frequent showers.

Can the tour be customised?

Contact the supplier directly. Adjustments to pace, accommodation level, or activity focus may be available depending on group size and dates.

our guide Hassan really knew their stuff and a little local spot off the usual route was the highlight, and honestly better than the tour we did in Dubrovnik last year.

our guide Ingrid was nice enough, but a stop the guide added on the fly felt a bit rushed honestly ... First thing in the morning. Would only really suit you if youre not fussy, came away with 200+ photos. Bit disappointed ngl, would only really suit you if youre not fussy, ran the full 4 hours promised.
