My 6/7 day tour was organized by Beyond escapes. It was curated to my needs and attention to detail was fabulous. Ruwan who is the founder of ‘Beyond Escapes’ personally ensures everything is on order and is always accessible to the travelers. Our driver was Shavendra was a pleasant person to have around and contributed greatly to our beautiful experience in this magical country. If I think of Srilanka it will always be with Beyond Escapes.

We booked this tour with Beyond Escapes and made a few changes as we wanted to visit Wilpattu national park as well as their recommondations, but we only had 4 days in Sri lanka. They were really responsive and organised everything for us from the airport transfer to the last day of our trip. Our guide Cesar was a good driver, very polite and was very knowledgeable, staying very attentive to our needs. All the excursions were amazing. The village visit was really fun as we had the opportunity to prepare an authentic Sri Lankan lunch with a local family, demonstrating typical cooking traditions. We had an amazing experience in Wilpattu national park as we saw so many animals like bears, crocodiles, birds and the leopards. It was really impressive when one leopard tried to attack the buffalos. A huge thank you to Cesar and beyond escapes for creating such an unforgettable trip to Sri Lanka!!!

I had an amazing time on this trip! Beyond Escapes was very accommodating of me and found me a female guide. She was so knowledgeable and kind. The driver was also very accommodating and nice. They both were great people and helped me drive a tuktuk and found me fresh fruit from the local markets. I had a great time and highly recommend! I felt safe as a solo female traveler and got to see much of Sri Lanka.

We booked essence of Sri Lanka tour for our family with Beyond Escapes. They were very professional and fast in responses. I was so happy and excited when dealing with them. Our guide was Imran and he was fantastic. If you look for Beyond Escapes, ask for Imran as your guide. We were able to visit Dambulla cave temple and saw marvelous paintings there. Also Sigiriya Rock fortress with super irrigation systems, explored Polonnaruwa by 2 wheels, Kandy temple which houses the tooth relic of Lord Buddha and a village tour where we spent half a day as locals. It is a great experience. Beyond Escapes - We Recommended you for sure! Thank you very much everything ❤️

We visited Sri Lanka in January this year & booked this 4 days tour with Beyond Escapes. We explored major sites in asri Lanka. Sigiriya, Dambulla rock cave temple, Kandy temple and enjoyed a village tour in Sigiriya. We love the authentic meal they offered us. This tour really means a lot for the name - "essence of Sri Lanka". Sri Lanka is such a marvelous country. Our guide - Imran was wonderful. He took care of us well. Hotels that BE team had reserved for us were excellent and they were beyond my expectations although it mentioned as 3-star hotels. Thank you so much for making our trip memorable & would recommend Beyond Escapes to anyone!

My wife and 02 sons went on a fascinating routing in Sri Lanka for 4 days holiday. We picked 4 day Essence of Sri Lanka private tour amongst many tour programs published online. We wanted to experience local life and visit cultural sites as much as possible. This tour offered all these things and my two sons enjoyed pedaling through the ruins of Polonnaruwa a lot. Bullock cart ride and live cooking during Village tour was also fantastic. In Kandy we wanted to do sightseeing by Tuk Tuks as I had heard that it's interesting. Imran our personal guide arranged it for us complementary. He is honest and very friendly guy. My 2 boys had a great time with him and were impressed with the driving skills of Imran. He was superb that much and very careful. Happy about all the hotels and specially Radh Hotel which was exceptional. Big thank to Beyond Escapes for creating this program and highly recommend this tour who step in Sri Lanka for 1st time.

Me and my friends had an excellent experience with Beyond Escapes in December 2018. We booked essence of Sri Lanka tour after negotiating things with Hesara, one of the great tour consultants I met in my life. She was very fast in replying to our emails and professional. We pedaled through the ancient ruins of Polonnaruwa, climbed up Sigiriya Rock Fortress and Dambulla cave temple and were able to gain a vast knowledge about proud history of Sri Lanka from our guide Mr. Christo. Beyond Escapes maintain professionalism in providing services and I won't hesitate to recommend this company for all the travelers. Keep it up!

As a result of last minute travel plan, I booked Sri Lanka essence tour with Beyond Escapes. They offered so many things for me at a reasonable price. I met Krishan (my personal guide) and he was a good friend to me during this 4 days. Because of my personal interest, I requested to visit Pidurangala (not a part of this tour) and he simply made is possible. I like all the sites visited during this tour and Kandy temple made me more impressed because of it's calm; quiet and peaceful environment. Dear Beyond Escapes - Thank you very much for making my holiday precious. 100% Recommend.

We had fantastic 4 days with Beyond Escapes in last month. I personally coordinated with Dulani and she was very flexible and genuinely wanted to make our trip excellent, listening to our suggestions regarding hotels, guide, etc. Shavendra our guide was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and treated us each and every stop with fresh coconut water, water bottles, delicious mangoes and guavas, cashew plates, so and so. Thanks a lot for all those treats and if you wish to travel around Sri Lanka, Shavendra is the besttt!!!! During our 4 days stay we visited UNESCO world heritage sites - Sigiriya Rock Fortress, Dambulla rock cave temple, Kandy tooth relic temple and Polonnaruwa. Everything had been well maintained. We enjoyed exploring Polonnaruwa by 2 wheels, worshipped tooth relic temple in Kandy, spent half day with locals sharing their meals, feelings, attitudes, activities, so and so. We will not hesitate to recommend Beyond Escapes for public, because you deserves it!!
