Amazing tour of Sri Lanka
Chris B,Mar 19, 2026

5.00Tripa Voyages planned and executed an amazing holiday for us and our friends. It started at the airport with a beautiful greeting and assistance to our van. Pathumi provided beverages and snacks for the vehicle. Our driver and guide Kasun was professional and very knowledgeable, a true ambassador of Sri Lanka. All the hotels and tours Pathumi arranged were amazing. The hotels were stunning and meals delicious. The Elephant Safari was so incredible - we were surrounded! We will never forget this experience. I highly recommend Tripa Voyages for experiencing a truly unique and beautiful holiday in Sri Lanka.
Every detail managed perfectly!

5.00We had an incredible adventure in Sri Lanka thanks to Tripa Voyages. The itinerary was outstanding, with every detail managed perfectly along the way. From our greeting at the airport and unexpected treats, to our guide (thank you Kusal!) & vehicle, hotels/food, and the sites visited….everything exceeded expectations. Pathumi thought of everything. She also checked in regularly with us and our chauffeur to ensure the trip was unfolding as planned. We knew from the initial planning stages we were in the hands of a knowledgeable, experienced professional. Pathumi and Tripa Voyages proved that at every stage of our “tripa”! 😊
