Blue Lanka Tours Reviews 

Excellent service form beginning to end. Tour was superb. We’re definitely coming back and will use Blue Lanka again.

We are not ones to give reviews very often, but having just spent 9 days in Sri Lanka with BLUE LANKA TOURS, we feel compelled to share our experience with other travellers.

We initially planned our own itinerary for 8 nights/9 days in Sri Lanka, booked accommodations by ourselves, and was looking for a chauffeur/private tour guide.

As you can imagine, choosing the right tour operator to guide you around a foreign country can be a daunting task.
After reading many reviews and corresponding with many tour operators, we chose BLUE LANKA TOURS, which turned out to be the perfect choice.
Although BLUE LANKA’s quote wasn’t the cheapest, we found that they were the best value for the money.

Dinesh Perera CEO always responded to our emails in a timely professional manner and helped fine-tune our itinerary to be more efficient. His suggested itinerary and quote was the most comprehensive among the tour operators.

Our chauffeur/guide Kalinga Fernando was way beyond our expectations!
He was not only a very safe and conscientious driver, but was also very enthusiastic, knowledgeable, polite, and professional. Every morning the car was clean inside and out, new water bottles were in place, and he always arrived on time with a smile on his face and a positive attitude.
During our 9 days of traveling with Kalinga, we were amazed with his extensive knowledge of his country (culture, nature, history…etc). His willingness to share his knowledge and suggest new experiences made our trip more fulfilling and unforgettable. We truly enjoyed traveling through Sri Lanka with him.

Based on our positive experience, we highly recommend BLUE LANKA TOURS.

Blue Lanka is professional in their services. They have good team players and they deserve to be A number One Agent in Sri Lanka.
I will personally use them again.
You have great wonderful staff!
Thank you once again

It was beyond expectations. Excellent detailed a thoughtful planning by Blue Lanka and fantastic service .

Thank you Team Blue Lanka

Guided to draw a customised itinerary, provided excellent vehicle and chauffeur/guide, took care of our every requirement. I have no hesitation to recommend Blue Lanka Tours for any body who wish to travel Sri Lanka.

Excellent itinerary, excellent guide - couldn't fault anything about my 2 week tour.

Everything is perfect.
Especially my driver Rishan is perfect.

The vacation my wife and I took to Sri Lanka with Blue Lanka Tours was tops. I want to tell a few things about our trip and the trip our friends took in June 2019 based upon our recommendation. This company gives very personal service before the trip, during the trip, and even after the trip is done. The office staff is quite efficient in designing a plan and booking excellent accommodations. Then during the trip there is someone from the company who checks in almost daily to make sure everything is proceeding smoothly. Shan, our guide, gave us excellent service. Actually he did all the driving and was our guide for the whole trip. In addition, we had some local guides with more specific knowledge of a particular area when needed. After we returned from our trip members of the Blue Lanka team kept in touch with us. They were willing to answer any questions we had about the many pictures we took. In addition, Shan sent me some of the pictures from his camera. Very thoughtful. He continues to keep in touch with us to let us know about the places he is visiting. Every time he sends a message it brings back many wonderful memories. I had no hesitation about recommending Blue Lanka to friends of ours. This couple wanted to emphasize wildlife and birding. The company did a great job personalizing their itinerary. They had a terrific vacation in June 2019 visiting several national parks and other important sights. Our friends wrote to me while they were traveling to tell me that they felt safe everywhere they went.

Blue lanka tours was the best choice for us. They gave everything that made our trip perfect. Pramila planned the itinerary with us and answered very quickly, if we had any questions. Young gentleman Prakash was our driver and guide. He spoke very good English and told us about Sri Lanka, culture, people, religion, nature everything you need to know.

we would choose blue lanka tours again

Thank you Blue Lanka Tours

When we contacted blue lanka tours 2 weeks before our trip, we were worried because we weren't sure of pulling a whole trip together within such a short time since our trip was an instantaneous decision, but thanks to Blue Lanka Tours, they took care of everything for us, right from hotel bookings to driving us around and planned it around exactly what we were looking for. The trip we made was from colombo to nuwara eliya for 2 nights and then 2 nights at Bentota.
Although the distance between all 3 places is so extensive, Dilshan, our guide was so amazing at executing our trip without it getting exhausting at all by stopping over at awesome locations for lunch/breakfst with spectacular views of ramboda waterfalls, the mahaweli river.

Dilshan made us feel less like passengers and was more like one of us. We have a toddler of 2 years and were really concerned about how he would manage but thanks to Blue Lanka Tours, our trip was a great success and we returned back to Dubai so amazed at the beauty of Sri Lanka

Few places/adventures we visited
1. Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage
2. Ramboda Waterfalls
3. Pedro Tea Estate in Nuwara Eliya
4. Whale Watching at Mirrisa
5. Devon and Claire Water Falls
6. Sea Turtle Hatchery
7. Galle Fort

Once again a big thanks to Dilshan and to Dinesh and his team at Blue Lanka Tours.

Just finished a 6-day tour in Sri Lanka with chauffeur guide Lasantha and we are very impressed with his level of service.

Booking the tour was a last minute decision and Deminda was helpful with providing a quick quote based on our desired itinerary. We chose Blue Lanka and specifically requested for Lasantha based on a friend’s recommendation and we were not disappointed. He was always prompt, well-spoken and enthusiastically shared with us his deep knowledge/love of his country and culture. We really felt like we hit the jackpot with Lasantha as our guide ---he recommended some local spots that you would never ever learn about from a guidebook:
* we were pleasantly surprised with an up close encounter with giant turtles casually swimming at a beach and were able to hand feed them seaweed!
* we went snorkeling at a spot and the visibility was incredible---saw lots of fish and coral
* we walked along the shore and saw sea snakes, sea urchin, more brightly colored fish, crab, fluorescent sea plants and colourful coral
* he helped us spot some spinner dolphins and a sperm whale that surfaced twice
* we hiked up to a cave where remains of prehistoric people were excavated and there was a waterfall that we could walk underneath

We can tell that Lasantha cared very much about our local experiences and he was committed to make sure that we saw all that Sri Lanka could offer. It was a very short visit but Lasantha hosted us like longtime friends and we left Sri Lanka with a heavy heart but with a renewed appreciation for the beauty of nature and a desire to see more of the country.

We are just completing a 14 day tour around Sri Lanka including Sigiriya, Anuradhapura, polonnaruwa, Kandy, Nuwara Eliya, Yala and Galle. We have been so impressed with the service provided by Blue Lanka Tours and especially our driver Shan. Nothing was too much trouble and he arranged some excellent opportunities for us along the way in the form of cultural show, cooking class and some fabulous safaris.

Our 2 week trip in Sri Lanka has come to an end & we cannot thank Blue Lanka Tours enough for having planned such a fabulous holiday for us. From the first communication with Blue Lanka everything was as we hoped. History, culture, animals, delicious meals, incredible accommodation- all catering to what we liked. The icing on the cake was our Chauffeur/ Guide Lasantha
Premarathne who was so knowledgeable &
organized not to mention a great driver & now a good friend. Go to Sri Lanka, book with Blue Lanka & request Lasantha & plan to have the trip of your dreams.

I booked a customized tour for Kandy and Nuwara Eliya in a single day with Blue Lanka. It was my first ever visit out of Colombo and being solo traveler, safety has been my utmost priority. I discussed my concern, and Karen from Blue Lanka was kind enough to join me on my trip. Sagara from Blue Lanka was assigned as my tour driver.

All the logistics arrangement, time management, coverage of locations were upto the mark. An expert tour guide was arranged for me at temple of tooth who gave me detailed insight to religious importance of the temple.

Both Karen and Sagara made sure my comfort throughout the day. They even added few extra stop overs just for me to see all important places in both cities. Also, iam a pictures freak so they kindly and patiently performed duties of being my photographer too 😃

I throughly enjoyed their company, my trip and felt completely safe. I have already booked them for my next tour 🙂

FIRST VISIT TO SRI LANKA

BLUE LANKA TOURS THE BEST.......!!
Will recommend this company to all our friends and family - and we think that Travel Agents around the world should know about this AMAZING COUNTRY and AMAZING COMPANY.

A fabulous company to deal with. Our three week private tour in Sri Lanka was awesome. Nothing was too much trouble and true service with a smile. Nothing to complain or quibble about. 10/10.

Very professional company had a wonderful time and they planned everything to perfection happy to recommend them anytime

We used Blue Lanka for a few days at the start and end of our 16 day Sri Lanka holiday and they were wonderful. They did mess up our train booking from Kandy to Ella but took us on a free zipline to make up for it. They went out of their way to cater to the whole groups needs and drive us around at night and wait for us. Both our guides ,Videsh and Rishan were really great to spend time with, gave us tons of info and tips and are assets to a great company ! Fun excursions were organised to Dambulla, Sigiriya, Anuradhapura, Ella falls,a tea plantation, to name a few ,we even got to attend the Kandy Perahera ! Thanks Blue Lanka for a fantastic time !

I went to Srilanka on a 7 day tour. We approached Blue lanka travels as our friend from srilanka suggested them. Mr. Deminda Fernando, GM was our point of contact. He suggested us a 4 day plan according to our liking. We decided to go with them. Right from the moment we got down, until the four day trip was done, we were taking care like emperors. We were helped in buying a SIM card, we were well explained and guided. We got a train from Kandy to Ella which should have been reserved a month back. As we planned the trip only three days ahead, it was very tough to get even second class. But Mr. Daminda ensured we got the first class. And all the hotel accommodations were amazing. Finally, not to miss. Our Chauffeur Guide Mr. Rishan was the best anyone could get. He was very sweet and helped us in every single way possible. Overall the company and its employees make sure the tourists have an amazing experience. Will surely come back and definitely only with Blue Lanka. 💪
