Amazing Rainforest Tour !!

Me and my friends often trip around Sri Lanka but we hadn’t gone to Sinharaja as a group ever, only for school trips. Our guide was fantastic and seemed to know almost everything about the rainforest, spotting some crazy species that were camouflaged in the greenery. I am terrified of slipping and falling but Priyantha was extremely kind and cognizant of this, constantly helping me. We had a great time, would recommend!

Sinharaja Rainforest Tour with Local Guide

Enjoyed a great tour of the Sinharaja Rainforest with our local guide Sam. He was very knowledgeable about the trail we took through the beautiful rainforest and looked after us whenever we reached a steep climb. Sam took time to explain various plants and trees and identified several insects that we saw crawling in the trees. We climbed to three stunning waterfalls and dangled our feet in the water so that they could be massaged by the resident fishes. Brilliant 2.5 hour tour and thanks again to Sam for looking after us. Must do activity when visiting Sri Lanka

Our best excursion in Sri Lanka

It was by far the best trip we had in Sri Lanka. Our guide drew our attention to many hidden animals and gave us valuable information about them. If it was a bit slippery on the way, he guided us safely and gallantly over slippery passages.

The Jungle experience I desired

Very friendly and insightful guide. Animals and plants. He always allowed us to choose whether we want to wonder around a bit and discover views or continue with our main plan (we always wandered around). It was the jungle experience a wanted!
