I recently had the pleasure of experiencing a wonderful holiday in Sri Lanka organized by Hellow Travel, and I cannot recommend them enough! The itinerary they crafted was well-thought-out, allowing us to explore diverse landscapes, from stunning beaches to lush tea plantations and vibrant cities. The accommodations were comfortable and offered great service, ensuring we felt welcomed throughout our stay. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and really enhanced our experience with local insights and stories about the culture and history of Sri Lanka. One of the highlights was a visit to the ancient city of Sigiriya, where climbing to the top provided breathtaking views and a glimpse into the country’s rich past. The safaris in Yala National Park were another unforgettable experience, giving us the chance to see elephants, leopards, and an array of wildlife in their natural habitat. The gastronomic experience was also delightful! We enjoyed traditional Sri Lankan meals, including delicious rice and curry, and even participated in a cooking class to learn how to make some local dishes ourselves. Overall, my holiday in Sri Lanka with Hellow Travel was an enriching experience that I will cherish forever. If you’re considering a trip to this beautiful country, I highly recommend using Hello Travel for a seamless and memorable adventure!
It was a memorable journey with Mr. Dhanuka. He took us around the Sri Lanka. He is so passionate about his work. Highly recommend tour for anyone. Excellent. We have been to Safaris, Temples and historical sites. He made it easier.
Very professional and very knowledgeable. And we enjoy it very much. We had a wonderful journey with him and his is so caring and helpful. Highly recommend

Driver, Dhanuka is very professional with great knowledge of road and every places. He is best travel agent and travel advisor. He has arranged everything with great manner so that we will not miss anything with smooth journey. Daisy Leung
In year 2026 February, I was traveling with Hellow Travel to Sri Lanka for 11 days small group tour. This is my first time to visited in Sri Lanka. It was a great trip. Highly recommend to Sri Lanka tour. Especially local tour guide Dhanuka, excellent, professional, knowledgeable, and patient to explain in detail. Itineraries well organized cover all top spot. Included : Dambulla Cave Temple, Sigiriya Rock Fortress, and Safaris. Hotel comfortable. I have a unforgettable experience and memories. Miranda
WOW! Where do I start?! What a company to trust in and to deliver you the most perfect trip during your time in Sri Lanka. In October to celebrate my 40th birthday my husband surprised me with this amazing trip for us both and our 9 year old son. After the long journey from the UK we arrived in Columbo and stayed in a hotel overnight. The following morning we were picked up by our tour guide ‘Dhanuka’ where we began our 7 day tour around the central province of the country. If I am completely honest we were pretty sceptical having booked direct with Hellow travel, rather than a company such as Trailfinders, Travelbag etc back in the UK. Also a little apprehensive about spending the next 7 long days with a complete stranger in our company. I would say this was probably something out of our comfort zone and especially having our 9 year old boy with us. But rest assured we were put at ease from the get go. And what a treat we had in store. We definitely hit the jack pot. Dhanuka – What a wonderful human being! Such a genuine, trustworthy, kind, happy, no stress, friendly guy – with a great sense of humour and so lovely with our son. Together as a family we have experienced and learnt so much in Sri Lanka, but a huge thank you goes to Hellow travel and Dhanuka for ensuring we had the best experience. They go above and beyond and deliver an outstanding service. I could sing their praises all day long! Dhanuka knows the country like the back of his hand, doesn’t require a sat nav (which still blows my mind), extremely knowledgeable, takes you to the best places & restaurants and clearly loves his job in showing you around his breathtaking country. He is very proud of it and so he should be. I feel we are so lucky to ever come across Hellow travel and blessed with the best tour guide driver in the whole of Sri Lanka 🥇‘Blessings’ Dhauka’s famous words. We had so many blessings throughout our trip ❤️ The people, nature, culture, food & drink, the sights… Sri Lanka is amazing. Book it you won’t be disappointed. But be sure to book your trip with Hellow Travel. We are so thankful of our experience. We have been home 2 weeks and still buzzing from it all. So sad it’s over but we have memories that will last a life time. We would also like to say a big thank you to Dhanuka’s wife Pavithra. She does a lot behind the scene, planning and organising, contacting you on the run up and also goes out of her way to ensure everything is perfect. We have gained a special friend in Dhanuka and we will be forever grateful of our time with him. It’s definitely not a goodbye it’s a we will see you again soon. Sri Lanka has a piece of our heart 🫶🏼 Lots of love and ‘blessings’ From the Bebbs ❤️
I recently traveled to Sri Lanka with Hellow Travel, and it was an amazing experience. Everything was well-organized. It’s a hassle free, no need to worry about anything. A special shout-out to Dhanuka, our guide. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and always made sure we were comfortable. He shared local culture, food tips, and hidden spots that truly made the trip unforgettable. Traveling with him felt safe, fun, and very personal — like exploring Sri Lanka with a friend. I highly recommend Hellow Travel, and if you can, ask for Dhanuka — he’s the best! 🇱🇰✨
I had an unforgettable experience touring Sri Lanka with Hellow Travel . From start to finish, everything was extremely well-organized and thoughtfully planned. Dhanuka had done his best to make it more memorable for us. The team was professional, friendly, and always ready to assist with anything we needed throughout the trip. I highly recommend Hellow Travel for anyone planning a trip to Sri Lanka. They exceeded my expectations, and I would definitely travel with them again!
Wow !! We wanted to do something special for our 50th wedding anniversary and boy was this it!! Sri Lanka really is a wonderful place to visit. There was a genuine “ nothing is too much trouble” feel from the outset All arrangements were by Pavithra.. she couldn’t possibly have been more helpful .. sending an in-depth itinerary proposal with descriptions and pictures of each activity on offer, which we whittled down and added to until we were happy with our nine day guided tour itinerary with beach stays before and after totalling a 16 day trip .. all hotel costs were included in the booking On arrival, our new friend and Guide Dhanuka was an instant hit .. extremely knowledgeable familiar with every inch of the islands history with friends and contacts at each stop reducing wait times and picking the best spots ., and best of all we enjoyed his company and wicked sense of humour Overall comments ., Faultless !!
This was an incredible experience. We had heard Sri Lanka was special but that was an understatement. This place is incredible. You feel safe the people are wonderful and the scenery incredible. So glad we added this to our trip! Our driver/ guide Dhanuka was amazing. Friendly knowledgeable and attentive to our needs. He really made this an exceptional experience.
We had a fantastic visit to beautiful Sri Lanka. During the planning stages our guide Dhanuka was so helpful and answered all my questions. We arrived at the airport late at night to be welcomed by Dhanuka with beautiful flower necklaces. For the next week Dhanuka kept us safe as we toured the country. We tried things we never would have otherwise…water buffalo curd (it was delicious) and asked him a thousand questions. On our last day he gave us each a personalized framed photo collage which was so well done…it will help us cherish our trip. Looking forward to coming back.
We wanted to visit Sri Lanka, we preferred to do it with Hellow Travel, we contacted the office and Mr. Dhanuka helped us in all the steps to plan our trip, everything was perfect, from the beginning when our driver Kasun picked us up, who was polite, a very careful driver, spoke perfect English, explained everything to us on our trip and made everything we wanted happen. Everything was perfect. On our next trip to Sri Lanka we will choose Hellow Travel again.
We had tailor made itinerary including all sights we wanted to visit. The guide/driver was very friendly and profesional. If we wanted to stop somewhere outside the program there was no problem to visit additional towns. We highly recommend Hellow travel for first visit od Sri Lanka.
Dhanuka was such an amazing tour guide, he made our trip so memorable! He was great at spotting the animals on the safari and we got to see leopards, elephants and more! He took us to lion rock and the dambulla temples and knew so much information and all the answers to our questions! The hotels booked were lovely and he stopped along the way for us to try the king coconut along the road. When he dropped us off in Columbo he took us around on a tour and took us to the markets and food spots for us to get dinner before dropping us at the hotel! We had such an amazing trip! Thankyou Dhanuka!!
We had a fantastic time with Dhanuka, nothing was too much trouble for him. He took us to all the places at the best time and always made sure we had plenty of water. He was so knowledgable, super fast at spotting animals on safari. Dhanuka booked fabulous hotels and took us to some lovely eating places too. He made the holiday so memorable, we just wish could have stayed longer.
We booked our honeymoon trip in Sri Lanka with Hellow Travel and it was the best decision we could have made! Our guide was Dhanuka and he made sure we knew all about the history and the information about the places we were visiting and the perfect times to see them, so it really felt like we were in good hands at all times. The transport and the stays went also very smooth and we even got hotel upgrades paying only a small difference, where he made sure we got extra treats. All in all it was a very nice experience and we got to learn so much of Sri Lanka with such a knowledgable guide that made us feel safe and looked after.
I am visiting Sri Lanka for the first time with my nine year old daughter. Mr. Dhanuka Prasad from Hellow Travels left no stone unturned right from its planning till its day to day execution to make the trip picture perfect for the two of us. SriLanka is a beautiful country no doubt but Dhanuka's attention to every little detail made the trip like a "Fairy Tale". Thank you so so much! Will remain ever grateful.
We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Sri Lanka. It was our best decision to handover our itinerary to Hellow travels. From the day I inquired about the trip 3 months prior, planning the itinerary, answering all my questions, changing the iterinery as per my requirement and until the end of our trip Mr Dhanuka has been very supportive and very gentle throughout. He made sure we are well taken care. Our Cheauffer Mr. Chintaka was also supportive and was there for us whenever we needed him. Both were very gentle and changed the iterinery according to our needs. We want to thank Mr Dhanuka for giving us this wonderful experience in Sri Lanka . Would definitely recommend Hellow travels to my friends and family.
This was a once in a lifetime experience in all the right ways. Sri Lanka and its people are truly special, and I do not say that lightly. I’ve been lucky enough to spend time in wonderful places around the world, and Sri Lanka and its people are absolutely top of the list, thanks to Hellow Travel and especially to Dhanuka. Abundant wild life, spectacular scenery, magical temples, and beaches to rival the nearby Maldives, all packed into a country that is small enough to travel comfortably from north to south and less than a day, make this the perfect place for a holiday. But why would you do that, because every hour or so there’s a spectacular place to visit, something to see, or something special to taste or to experience. We had a private tour over two weeks of beautiful 4-5 star hotels, Glamping, safaris, great meals , and the best driver and guide you could ever hope for all for a very affordable price. But I leave the best for last - Dhanuka is an amazing person and thanks to him we really got to know Sri Lanka in a way that I have not done for any other place that I have been. He is fun, funny, smart, thoughtful, 100% trustworthy, and most of all patient and always has a smile. If you are lucky enough to have a chance to visit the magical place, jump on it, and be sure to go with Hellow travel and Dhanuka. You will be glad you did!
My friend and I did 13 days in Sri Lanka. It is a fabulous place to visit. We were extremely fortunate to work with Dhanuka of Hellow Travel who worked with us patiently as we had some of our own ideas about where we wanted to stay and what we wanted to do. He helped tailor our private tour with us with great patience and attention. We begged Dhanuka to come with us as our guide /driver for our 13 day jaunt around the island. Fortunately he came with us and he was amazing. Always flexible, always cheerful with a big smile, ready to do anything we wanted at any time of day, including many very early morning starts and always making sure everything went smoothly for us. Sri Lanka is a beautiful island. It’s a rare place where in a relatively small island you can see amazing Buddhist temples, fabulous safaris and beautiful beaches. We had so many unique, and in some quite extraordinary experiences as we circled the island. Highly recommend with great enthusiasm. Wrote the review.
We booked our trip to Sri Lanka for a week with Hellow Travel. Mr. Dhanuka was very professional and adapted the itinerary to what we needed. He helped a lot and answered all our questions which were a few… And our driver Thushara was the best, he was our guide too and an excellent person. Really good value for money. We highly recommend Hellow Travel services, you won’t regret!! We have had the best week ever in Sri Lanka.
So glad we decided to go to Sri Lanka instead of somewhere else this year. It’s a magical country with lots to offer. Warm humid beaches and misty cool mountains are all within a couple of hours drive. Our tour guide, Athula, took great care of us and went to great lengths to makes feel welcome and happy. He catered to all our needs. The program was nice and diverse for a short 7-day trip like ours. We travelled with 16, 11, and 4 year-olds and all had fun. Hotels were nice and staff were very friendly. Expect changes to the itinerary according circumstances.
We booked this trip pretty last minute, less than three weeks and everything was set up very well. It was an eight day trip which is doable but you will miss out on some sites. Our driver Athula was a wonderful man. Always concerned about our well being and making sure we understood what was going on and ensuring we had a good time. Only three of us on the trip and we upgraded to the larger van which was nice (we had some large luggage and concerned about trunk space). Booked the 4 star hotels and all were great, we did get some upgrades due to the current lack of tourist here and would recommend this or possibly the 5 star hotels as I don’t think they are that much more. Remember it is your trip and if you want something changed or dropped from the itinerary just ask.
SriLanka is a country of wonder and amazement, From the ever changing landscapes, wild animals and the delicious food. It is a country that has something for everyone. From originally booking our trip in 2019 Hellow Travel went above and beyond to assistance us rebooking our holiday in 2022. They ensured we had a memorable adventure with high quality hotels, car and even supported the purchase of a car seat to accommodate our six year old daughter. Our Driver Mr. Thushara was fantastic and knowledgeable, we had many conversations during our journey between destinations.
Lion's rock and mini Adams peak were our favourites. The journey and adventure was well worth the hike. Our driver provided thorough knowledge and background around each and every attraction and landmark for our resource. T was always willing and able to help in any way possible. Always going above and beyond, especially since having our 6 year old daughter with us.
On a very short notice the team organized a custim program to fit my budget and my plans. They were so fast to respond and flexible enough to accomodate all our needs. Once landed in Colombo all we had was to let them lead us and execute the program. Some hidden gems along the way are memorable and unique exleriences, the spice garden and the authentic village experience are a must do for any traveller. The choice of activities and hotels were spot on. We highly recommend them for anyone looking at exploring what the island has to offer while being assisted 24/7 by a team of local connoisseurs. Last but not least high credits go to Renuka our guide who combines humbleness, knowledge and hospitality. It would never have been the same without him and we will definitely come back for him as host!!!
It was an amazing way to explore Sri Lanka in a short period of time. I am truly happy for choosing Holiday Travel for my solo trip since they organized the whole trip in a best possible way. The driver Dinesh was extremely kind and helpful, making me feel safe and secure. He drove really safely and considering Sri Lankan roads That was a huge advantage. Also, their manager Dhanuka took care of every detail from the moment I ordered a trip till the very end, always keeping in touch and following up my day to day experiences. My honest recommendations for Holiday Travel!
Great service Most excellent Guide (Ahamad), I highly recommend this trip. You can see so much in a small amount of time.
We can’t say enough about the detailed service we received from booking to finale. Each step included requests for feedback to ensure we were pleased. Our tourist board guide Roshan was beyond expectations. He was a dear friend by the time we finished. Our thanks to Hellow Travel and their team for a fantastic Adventure in Sri Lanka.
Our experience was perfect! well it all goes to the efforts done by Danuka from Hello Travel for providing the perfect itinerary and putting his lovely touch to hotel accommodations throughout the trip. Most importantly, assigning Renuka the wonderful cooperative professional driver whom we were lucky to have company through the tour. Well, I will be honest, our expectations were over met. When we decided to go with Hellow Travel, considering the moderate price provided comparing to other companies, we really thought that we will give out some of the professional courtesy and privileges for the provided modest price. But it was otherwise! having considerable experience in traveling my self, I do really rate those guys 5 stars for providing traveling services... Thank you for making good memories Hello Travel, Thank Danuka for keeping the professional courtesy until the moment we landed home and thank Renuka for the pleasant company during our honeymoon trip :)
I'm very glad i chose Hellow Travels for my 9D/8N (28th Dec 2019 - 5th Jan 2020) family trip to Srilanka. Mr. Dhanuka Prasad is a very knowledgeable and friendly person. He was available 24x7 round the clock and helped me a great deal in finalizing my itinerary, getting me ETA(visa) and clarifying any doubts i had. I was travelling with my parents (60+ yo) and an infant (3yo) and hence i specially asked Dhanuka to provide me with a very caring driver. He totally did his 100% in this matter. We were allotted a Tourist board approved Chauffeur Mr. Ahamad who is GEM of a person! We felt very safe with him all through the tour and he went out of his way to help us all through the trip especially in getting good deals at sightseeing/activities and finding decent indian restaurants for lunch and dinner. He also very punctual and made sure we covered the entire itinerary and a few extra sightseeing places too! We visited Colombo, Pinnawala, Sigiriya, Trincomalee, Dambulla, Kandy, Kitugala Nuwara Eliya, Ella, Galle, Bentota. The White water rafting at Kitugala, water sports at Bentota, Zipline at Ella were highlights of the tour. Mr Dhanuka booked very good hotels offering breath taking views from the hotel rooms/windows and a very tasty breakfast in a decent budget. He even managed to get 6 train tickets for us on the Nanu oya - Ella train which was a beautiful train ride offering amazing views of tea plantations and waterfalls. Only one major hiccup i had in the tour was at the hotel in negombo - Hive 68 Hotel. Despite Hellow Travels requesting them for accessible room for my parents, the hotel staff allotted rooms in 2nd floor which was very upsetting. I hope Hellow travels' management takes the necessary action against them with regards to this matter. This was the first international trip to 4 of my family members and Mr. Dhanuka really made it a memorable one for them. I would 100% recommend Hellow Travels to any one planning to visit Sri Lanka without a second thought. Thank you Mr. Ahamad and Dhanuka from Hellow Travels for everything and i wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
We’re couple of experienced travelers, visited ~70 countries, but for sure this trip we’ll remember. We had the really amazing guide Thushara, who took care about us as we were his guests. We were able to rely on him and relax without focusing on organizational issues. He is really professional, knowledgeable, knows his job very well and really outstanding person. We miss you. Now we have the same type of tour in India and wish the current guide could be even compared with Thushara. From organizational point of view we really would like to thank to Hellow travel and particularly to Dhanuka: he double checked all details as soon we booked, find perfect hotels, mostly on hb basis (which were convenient, as hotels were mostly remote due to the specificity of the tour), great car for 2 (Toyota Prius), checked multiple times if we are ok on the tour. Such customer service is really rare nowadays and really appreciated. Ps. If you will have a tour on northern part of island with Thushara we’ll come back :) With best regards, Andrey and Tania
We booked our trip through Hellow Travels. The trip was very well organised by the team, they took care of the everything we had asked for, right from the beginning of the tour till the end. They have been very warm & caring and they also arranged for a suprise for us on our anniversary. Special thanks to Chinthaka for being the most entertaining, fun and amazing tour guide. I would highly recommend this team if you plan to visit Srilanka.
We visited Sri Lanka for 8 nights and 9 days through Hellow Travel. It was nothing less than perfection. It started even before we started our trip, from Visa suggestions to personalising our itinerary to suggesting what places we should and should not visit, they covered it all. Everything from the pick up to the drop off was taken care of and we had nothing to worry about. Special shout out to our travel guide Chinthakala, he was fabulous. He took care of us and understood our requirements. He showed us around with so much interest and helped us enjoy our vacation. It was lovely. I would definitely recommend this team if you plan on visiting Srilanka 👍🏼

Thanks for your service..
Sri Lanka is a wonderful country rich in nature. The food is delicious and it's a nice country, so everyone should definitely go to Sri Lanka. The adventure with our guide Danuk was fun. Over the course of nine days, we covered the main spots. It was an exciting trip to Sri Lanka, filled with mountains, rivers, oceans, animals, and ruins.
Sri Lanka was more fun than I expected! The food was delicious and the people were kind. There was a lot to see and it was a fulfilling experience. Danuk was a very good guide. Thank you for a wonderful time.
Four families and eight couples went on an eight-night trip to Sri Lanka. It was my first trip to Sri Lanka, but I was very satisfied to experience authentic Ayurvida as it was a trip filled with ruins and nature and filled my heart.‼️ In particular, this time I asked Hello Traveler, who was very responsive and wonderful, and told the president what they wanted, and he listened to most of them. Thank you, Mr. Danuka.
It was the most fulfilling and enjoyable trip I have ever had. In particular, Mr. Danuka from Hello Travel was very helpful, We have a few friends interested in going to Yukon, we had an amazing time! It was also the first time to experience Ayurveda, Shirodhara was also mystical and very pleasant and relaxing. We've had Seagulliers, we've had safaris in Jeeps. The village experience and boating are also great!!!👍 Thanks🙏
First time 🔰 Sri Lanka 🇱🇰. I was more satisfied than I expected 💮💯👌 Reason part 1. Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 country has charm 🤩 Until I scheduled a trip, I only had tea images 😅, but when I looked into it, there are many tourist attractions 🤭 This tour covers almost every spot I wanted to visit 👍 Come on. Watch!! I realized the goodness once again 👍 Reason #2. Dhanuka, CEO of Hellow Travel, a local travel agency, and Dineshi, a driver. You have been really supportive 🥰 Istouti🤗 (Sinhala for "thank you")
