Highest recommendation! - We had an incredible experience with Manjula Rajapakshe during our recent trip to Sri Lanka. From the start, he was [punctual/professional/friendly] and tailored the tour perfectly to our interests in [History/Food/Nature].

Great, fun, diverse, unique - Very nice tour guide, he was very helpful and talkative and was very keen to get us into Sri Lankan culture. The tour was great and allowed us to explore many different parts of the country and things like that.

THE BEST TOUR AND GUIDE EVER!! - YOU MUST BOOK “THE VISIT LANKA TOURS” - I came across The Visit Lanka Tours as I was researching a holiday to Sri Lanka. All of the reviews were amazing for the tour and Manju as the guide. Having just completed an 8 day tour I can say it was even better than we imagined it could be.
From the first interaction on the website, which triggered a WhatsApp exchange, Manju has been amazing.
Always quick to respond, he provides great recommendations and made it so easy to book and reserve the hotels we required and itinerary. His experience and professionalism are very clear as soon as you begin interacting with him.
You will do most interactions over WhatsApp including transferring deposits etc. rest assured it is all secure and safe.
Manju is everything amazing about Sri Lanka. He is warm, friendly , attentive, professional and always looking after his clients. We felt so special being guided by him.
The tour he arranged was just outstanding. We saw so many attractions , had amazing food, the hotels he recommended for us were all great and he always checked in to make sure we were having a great time.
He is a master of reading people and knows what type of attractions you may like and even recommend different things on a daily basis that we would do outside the normal tour. We loved it all.
Sri Lanka requires a lot of driving between cities and Manju is a great and safe driver. His vehicle was always clean and comfortable.
Having visited 27 counties I can say Sri Lanka and this tour is a much see and do.
Don’t hesitate.

Lanka Tours - 8 day Tour - We had the most incredible 8 days exploring beautiful Sri Lanka. Honestly, every single day was a highlight — from the stunning scenery and cultural sites to the amazing food and warm people.
What made the trip extra special was Manju. He went above and beyond to make sure we experienced as much as possible, and always made us feel safe, comfortable, and completely looked after. His knowledge, kindness, and flexibility meant we never had to stress about a thing — we could just relax and enjoy every moment.
The car was spotless and super comfy, the itinerary was perfectly planned, and everything ran so smoothly. We loved every minute and came home with the best memories.
This trip exceeded all our expectations, and we can’t recommend it enough! 🇱🇰✨
Thank you Manju!

Outstanding Sri Lankan experience! - Our guide , Sarath was recommended to us by friends and did not disappoint. He was generous with his extensive knowledge of his beautiful homeland, patient with our constant requests for toilets and shopping stops and we always felt we were in safe hands. He is the lens through which we experienced the most incredible eight day taster of this stunning country. We are very grateful for his kindness and we have already recommended him to our friends and family. Thank you Sarath.

Unforgettable memories - Having been in the Maldives for a week post our Sri Lankan adventures - I can honestly we were all missing our tour guide Manju! We had so much fun and adventure and packed lots in to the week. I keep reminiscing about the wonderful things we saw from baby elephants in the safari parks to a wild one just crossing the main road as we drove along; to incredible temples steeped with history and the stunning mountains and tree plantations. Nothing was too much trouble and he was thoughtful and considerate in how he planned our days always checking we were happy. We had an incredible time and will be recommending to all our friends!

Unforgettable Manju and Sri Lanka - It’s hard to describe just how good our trip was and that was all down to Manju. Coming to Sri Lanka with 2 children was an exciting adventure and he made sure it was both memorable and went smoothly. Every day was filled with activities and he adapted the schedule as we went taking into account our interests. The hotels he selected for us were great (especially Coconut Hotel in Tissamaharama), all of them offering a pleasant welcome, nice rooms, good food and comfy beds. We got to see some incredible sights and wonderful experiences; safaris, temples, gem museum, tea factory, spice garden, hill climbing, turtle sanctuary, village life, local dance show and an incredible train journey! Manju was always stopping for a camera ready moment and picking up local fruits to try. With such a packed itinerary all round the island there was a fair amount of driving and Manju was an excellent driver, we always felt safe. Safety is definitely important to him - our train was delayed by 3 hours (not uncommon in Sri Lanka) and he waited with us on the platform until we were safely on the train in our seats, he even looked after 3 young ladies who were left by their guide - a true gentleman! Most of all he is just such a kind hearted person who goes the extra mile to make sure you have a fantastic trip, our eldest son was nervous going up Lion Rock and Manju helped him up to the top and down. We’re writing this at the airport and already missing him. If you are considering a trip to Sri Lanka then make sure you get Manju as your guide, he will make your trip unforgettable!

Kiwis on tour in Sri Lanka. Our 8 day adventure - this was a fantastic tour, made most special due to Sarath our tour guide. The accomodation was a mixture. This is not high end accomodation however comfortable. We skipped a few in hotel meals as they were more buffet and we were only on a 7 day tour so we wanted to make every day count . Highly recommend this tour company and our driver. Other highlights were the two safaris, seeing Elephants in a real environment was incredible. Day trip to the tea plantation and into Ella was fun. next time we would book the spa retreat in Ella. Lots to do. All in All it was the friendly people, eating the local food and how safe we all felt. We will be back
