What our customers say:
Amanda & John
Thin book, perfect guidance
Although a thin book, this guide was the perfect guidance for our Sri Lanka trip. We travelled by train, by car and by tuk-tuk and followed the route proposed by this travel guide. After a 10 days trip, we were very happy with what we saw. The hotels from this guide are not necessary for backpackers but the price-quality ratio of the accommodations proposed are good.
Richard
Perfect for 8 day trip
This was exactly what we needed for planning our Sri Lanka holiday. We showed the guide to the hotel reception from Negombo and they help us arrange a car with a driver for our 8 day trip. It was not a 10 day but still, this guide was very useful for us. We followed the itinerary proposed in this guide and we saw the most famous places of Sri Lanka. And we haven’t paid any extra fee to a local travel agency to arrange us a tour
