Enjoyable rainforest daytrip
We had a really enjoyable experience on the tour. Our guide, Vinjithu was lovely and knowledgeable. The rainforest was beautiful and I liked the swim and lunch at the end. Definitely a worthwhile day trip for us.

Amazing trip. It was well organised
Our tour started with the pick up from our hotel. It was an amazing Tour. Mohamed contacted us before the tour day. Everything from the beginning was awesome. Driver came on time.The scenery was amazing Once we arrived Sinharaja we were met by our tour guide who works for the forest department. He took us to the entrance and we started the hike with him. Our guide was so informative, extremely helpful, fun and nice. knew every tree and animal in the rainforest. The Sinharaja Rainforest was very beautiful. The trek was easy at first but then got more challenging as we got closer to the waterfall. But the cool water was perfect, and we had a nice swim there. After the journey and we enjoyed a small lunch on the rocks before we headed back. Our driver took us to the tea factory after the hiking and Tea plantation was very beautiful and they showed us how Ceylon tea is manufactured. And we like to say this is a locally very popular company for excursions This was one of the best days of my life, thanks, I will never forget and will definitely recommend this people and the tour.
