Septiembre 2023. Contratamos los servicios de Explore Vacations, al empezar a organizar nuestras vacaciones para el verano 2023 consultamos los colaboradores y Partners, que aparecen en la página oficial de turismo de SIR LANKA y al azar contactamos con ellos. Para nosotros ha sido una experiencia súper agradable contactar con este equipo humano nos fueron a buscar al aeropuerto. Rivero nos oficina muy cercana al aeropuerto nos hicieron una ceremonia de bienvenida y nos prepararon un gran almuerzo Pathumi es realmente una persona maravillosa durante la duración de nuestro viaje contacto por WhatsApp varias veces con nosotros por si necesitábamos algo, esto es de agradecer cuando estás fuera de casa. Alquilamos un coche con chofer , ANANDA , que habla español y seguimos el itinerario que yo había preparado, pero ellos pueden organizarte tú itinerario de viaje, pueden reservar hoteles por ti, con precios muy competitivos, pueden sugerirte un montón de actividades y aventuras. Ananda es un excelente conductor, un buen guía y una excelente persona Obviamente solo tengo palabras de agradecimiento por la profesionalidad de este equipo y por supuesto lo recomiendo, estamos deseando volver a SIR LANKA con ellos..

Abbiamo appena concluso uno splendido viaggio di due settimane in Sri Lanka e grazie alla professionalissima Pathumi, ed a Milika Dilhan, la nostra bravissima guida, con noi per tutto il tragitto, abbiamo potuto godere al massimo del nostro tempo lì, visitando posti incantevoli senza alcun problema e con l'assistenza continua del nostro tour operator. Quando tornerò, certamente mi rivolgerò nuovamente ad Explore Vacations ed a Pathumi! Bravissimi!!

Ayubowan! I’m grateful to be writing another review based on our second trip organized by Pathumi at Explore Vacations. It. Was. Amazing. Again. First, we were partnered with one of our favourite human beings - Tharindu - who expertly navigated and guided us for two weeks. He ensured we soaked up as much knowledge, culture, and goodness as possible. His care and concern, kindness and generosity are incredible. Tharindu is one of a kind. Because it was our second trip to Sri Lanka in a short period, Pathumi ensured we saw incredible new sites that showcased the diversity of beautiful Sri Lanka. The hotels she recommended were unique. The locations and food second to none. The care and attention Pathumi put into the organization of our trip made it another impactful adventure. I highly recommend Explore Vacations based on the experience we had with Pathumi and Tharindu. We did not have to worry about any detail at any point during our holiday …. And outside of trip planning/execution, they are wonderful people in general 😊

We had a great experience with Explore vacations — Antan and Pathumi were very helpful and attentive in helping organise logistics for our trip, including train tickets and a car and driver for our trip to the tea country in and around Nuwara Eliya. Tharindu our driver was spectacular — he looked after us so well and was very knowledgable of the local surroundings, intrigues and sites — in addition to being a great and safe driver. Would definitely recommend to use Explore Vacations!

This was an amazing trip. This was made possible because our guide Sandu Fronceska was amazing. He's kind, understanding, patient and very friendly. He knows English well so there no problem with the language. If you're trying to get here, ask for Sandu.
