However....so see the animals and the park. Sincerely. MikeWritten 30 July 2024
- 412ramyah0 contributionsBrunch Buffet at the Ports of Call Restaurant on July 7th, 20247/7 24 - Went with family for lunch buffet to Port of Call. Wide variety of food spread as much as they were all tasty. Excellent atmosphere. The waiters serving at every station were so willing to provide us what we asked for. The waiters serving at the tables are very attentive and very pleasant and did their duty very diligently. All the Managers on duty were extra vigilant about the customers needs. Excellent spread of the dessert section especially the waiter at the ice cream cart offering nice choices of cones. The Chef, Prasantha Perera I spoke to was very generous to bring me something that I had asked for. They do rounds talking to people and checking how they can be of service to the customers. It is my first time for the Sunday brunch and I would highly recommend the Sunday brunch to friends and family as they serve cocktails on the house too. It provides a nice atmosphere and live music which can be a little soft allowing people to chat to their friends. It was a birthday treat that I had given to my sisters in advance as I won't be around and everyone's comments were very positive about the food spread and the tastiness. Glad I chose Ports of Call for the birthday treat!Written 7 July 2024
- N8504DNheatherj0 contributionsColombo airport Sri LankaThe airport was busy and a bit confusing . We got a porter who speedily took us to our check in desk ,a must if you do not know where you are going or which queue to join. The airport was clean as were the toilets . The duty free was priced in dollars and it was not possible to use rupees. Food was a little more expensive but not outrageous. There was a currency exchange so we were able to convert the last of our rupees. Overall we have a speedy pleasant transition.Written 15 March 2024

- AxelLee670 contributionsFamily TripWe (my family and I) had a visit to Sri Lanka! Directly from the earliest starting point, we had extraordinary correspondence with our driver Kumara (OTN World Company). He constructed us an unusual agenda that depended on our interests and things we needed to do. We had the option to visit three distinct urban areas while we were there. With two of the urban areas, we needed to fly locally, and our trip specialist set up the flights for us, so we didn't need to stress or worry over it. Kumara was even adaptable when our plane got postponed an entire day in the states. He had the option to move our arrangements around, so we didn't need to pass up anything. Much thanks to you so much OTN World Company and Kumara!Written 24 August 2019
- ZackTaylor660 contributionsQuest The Thirst Of LearningMy friend and i just returned from the most mystical week in Sri Lanka, and I can't express gratitude toward OTN World Company enough! This was totally THE most flawlessly arranged trek of any we'd at any point taken. I know for sure (from perusing internet based life posts of numerous other people who have been to Sri Lanka) that we saw more in our 6 days there, got familiar with its way of life, history, and got a lot all the more stunning pictures and saw progressively "mystery spots" than most by far of sightseers who visit the nation, and I couldn't be increasingly satisfied.Written 23 August 2019
- Loganharrison0 contributionsFor Forests LoverSinharaja forest reserve is the best place ever to visit as my best friend, and I are mad about forests, and it’s beauty. I recently came back from Sri Lanka. I went with my best friend to visit especially Sinharaja forest reserve as I have mentioned above that we have same interests and we always remain in search to visit wildlife and curious to know new information about wildlife, forests, etc. We reserved our tour by OTN World Company. Driver Chanaka came to receive us. He was amiable in his manners. We stayed at Sinharaja Forest Edge, which was terrific too. I will never forget this visit and OTN World Company’s service, which was so good as well Chanaka who was so nice attendant.Written 11 July 2019
- ThyairDelan0 contributionsA Memorable Visit To Sri LankaUndoubtedly, It was an awe inspiring visit to Sri Lanka where I along with my wife and children had been residing for a week. We became exposed to different cultures over there which made us fell in love with them at first sight. It was also a quite informative and educational trip for my children as they had been studying about Sri Lanka in their books and then witnessing them with their own eyes made them feel out of the world. We admired each and every bit of Sri Lanka and will soon plan to pay back a visit to it. However, our tour guide Kumara did a great job as he relieved off our stress of travelling from our shoulders.Written 6 July 2019
- rahulb030 contributionsFor Elephant LoversThe park is great by nature. Sure, you never have the guarantee to see the animals, if you want to guarantee you should go to a zoo. Nevertheless, we were a little disappointed when we Spend First 30Min, because we could see almost no animals. Shortly a few buffalos at the beginning, After that we so plenty of Elephants it make Our safari Worth . All in all nice, but for the whole ride (about 4 hours each way and then 3 hours in the park) it was a bit too little for us. The driver was very helpful and niceWritten 18 June 2019
