Absolutely fantastic holiday. Martyn the tour manager and Ravi the local guide were brilliant. Such an interesting and varied tour - Sri Lanka is a beautiful island. Would highly recommend.

Above expectations, had a brilliant guide, Shelia was just wonderful sorted out any issues and prempted any potential problems. Great group of travellers, a real cross section, but all bonded helping each other when necessary. I have worked in SriLanka and had the flexibility to meet many friends. Hotels could not have been better and the food excellent....you can't beat three curries a day. Even those who were adverse to curry tried the wonderful egg hoppers we were served. Any changes to the trip? Probably Yalla game reserve , too much cover Udawalla a better reserve in all probability is better, more open so viewing wildlife might be better. Will use Great Rail again, not touching our suitcases from putting on the coach at airport on arrival until leaving at airport was brilliant. The key to the trip was without doubt our tour guide we would go anywhere with her again, a real gem

As always GRJ came up trumps. We had a lovely friendly just right Alex Green to accompany us from London and the marvellous local guide Sithara Hettiarahichi who went the extra mile in arranging local lunches and dinners and 'extra' stops at places of interest breaking up the coach travel brilliantly. The train journeys were just AMAZING and the hotels, including both the changed ones to the Cinammon chain, were lovely. What a wonderful trip to beautiful Sri Lanka it will live long in the memory.
