Worth while. - This is a wonderful tour to take in some of the best bits in Sri Lanka. It enables you to see and experience the way the island works. Culturally it is very diverse. Our group was not the most mobile as we had one on crutches and one with a bad knee but we still found much to see and do. Our guide Keerthe was very flexible and adjusted the itinerary to fit with our groups abilities. Would definitely recommend this tour especially if you want time for other activities but want to see a good part of Sri Lanka.

Fantastic holiday in Sri Lanka - We spent a wonderful vacation in Sri Lanka with Apple Vacations. We visited many beautiful places and were absolutely delighted with the nature and monuments. Our driver, Dyenesh, deserves a huge thank you. He was very helpful in every situation and went out of his way to make our vacation a success.

Highly recommend - We booked the 3-day tour and it was truly an unforgettable experience thanks to our amazing guide Chathu. he was extremely kind and attentive. He explained everything in detail and shared a lot of knowledge about Sri Lanka. The tour itself was fantastic! in three days we were able to see and experience so much of the Country. From cultural sights to landscapes, it was the perfect mix. Our Highlight were the elefants. Everything was perfectly organized, and thanks to Chathu we learned so much more than we could have on our own. I hope you are lucky and get him as your guide :)

What an unforgettable experience - thanks Keerthe! - What an unforgettable experience. We were lucky to have Keerthe as our guide and driver. We travelled long distances but it felt like minutes. We were given lots of great updates on Sri Lankan culture and history. We were taken to places based on Keerthe’s experience - i.e he recommended a safari time that was different to usual times. This helped avoid big crowds due to public holiday weekend in Sri Lanka. We would highly recommend Apple Tours based on what professionalism Keerthe has shown. Thanks for a great trip and all the best. Albert, Paulina, Dexter and Kai
