The kids still talk about the turtles
The Iyer family
The elephants at Pinnawala, the hatchlings at Kosgoda and the boat on the Madu River made it a holiday our children will never forget. Wonderfully organised.

Yala at dawn was unreal

Our expert built the trip around the safari and it paid off: elephants, crocodiles and a leopard in the first hour. Seamless, personal and great value.
