Complaints Procedure

“Overall, we had a wonderful holiday and would have no hesitation in recommending Sri Lanka and Tikalanka to friends and family. Especially appreciated was Tikalanka’s understanding of our brief, which was met perfectly. Every location and venue appeared to have prior understanding of our needs and preferences. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DID TO GIVE US SUCH A GREAT HOLIDAY.”
