We loved the countryside and also the food.

What did you like most about Maldives?

The restfulness and the snorkelling. [Filitheyo Island Resort]

What did you like least about Sri Lanka?

The traffic, especially through the towns. We were very pleased that we were not driving ourselves.

What did you like least about Maldives?

The cost of Wi-Fi.

What is your opinion of your accommodation in Sri Lanka?

We thought the accommodation was very good – we appreciated that the Royal River Hotel [Resort, Kitulgala] was not as up to date as some of the other places but it’s situation certainly made up for that.

We thought that Hotel Sigiriya [Sigiriya] was a great place to be to “recover” from the long flight and drive.

What is your opinion of your chauffeur guide in Sri Lanka?

Niroshan was an excellent guide and driver who took exceptional care of us and answered our very many questions about Sri Lanka generally and life in the country.

We felt very safe in the car with him and he seemed to have infinite patience with all other road users.

We would certainly recommend him to other travellers.

Given that he told us that he does not specialize in wildlife tours his bird/animal knowledge and spotting skills were very good.

What is your opinion of your flights to and from Sri Lanka and Maldives?

They were fine although the food on the flight home from Sri Lanka was not as good as on the flight from UK. [SriLankan Airlines – Economy Class]

Any other comments?

We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Sri Lanka and were impressed with the smoothness of the implementation of all the arrangements made by Tikalanka.

If we decide to visit Sri Lanka again, we will certainly contact you.
