Great experience with SriLankan Pearl.
The trip was amazing, they tailored our trip to fit our needs, interests and schedule. The recommendation were all given with our best interest at heart. We were only a party of two and we had a guide with us the whole times. Sri Lankan pearl truly helped us enjoy the country and see the best of it even if our trip was only 4 days long. We were able to fit as many activities as we can in one day with the help of their organization, planning and recommendations..
