About
Come fall in love with Sri Lanka's best tourist spots in this tour
- Visit Kandy is a bustling city built around a lake in central Sri Lanka. It is listed as a world heritage site by UNESCO and is considered one of the most sacred places of worship in the Buddhist World. It can be beautiful, loud and peaceful, depending on where you go.
- Travel via Nuwara Eliya which - is known for its temperate, cool climate – the coolest area in Sri Lanka. Often referred to as ‘Little England’, this genteel highland community does have a rose-tinted, vaguely British-country-village feel to it, with its colonial-era bungalows, and pretty gardens.
- Climb a rock - if you’re in good shape and don’t stop to look at things, it’ll take you less than 30 minutes to climb all the way to the top of the rock. If you need a few breaks along the way or simply want to stop often to take photos and admire the view, it’ll take an hour and a half to two hours to climb up and go back down again.

About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Laera230 contributionsFully immersive Sri Lanka experienceI had a very short time in Sri Lanka, but Apple Vacations and most importantly, Rukshan, my guide, made sure that I made the most out of it. I had a full itinerary for the 5 days, but Rukshan adjusted the travel plans with full flexibility based on my interest. There was nothing impossible for him when it came to showing me places, flavours, experiences, in order to give me a fully immersive experience. He did this with his genuine kindness, service-orientation and amazing driving skills that impressed me every day. I felt fully safe with him all the time and thanks to him I got to see even Sri Lanka nightlife that I probably would not have done on my own. I fully recommend their services and cant wait to be back to explore more.Written 21 November 2024
- priyanky20220 contributionsBentota and Galle Fort Trip from ColomboAmazing day trip. Naveen was very professional and showed good places. Boat safari is highly recommended. Dont forget to enjoy the ice-cream at Galle Fort.Written 14 November 2024
- Cruiser5464240 contributionsAmazing tour operatorApple vacations were amazing! From the start of communication they responded promptly and were very helpful in attending to our requests. They even gave us a little welcome gift when they picked us up from the airport. For the tour, the car was super comfortable and driver had great english! I had to cancel the second excursion due to illness and despite problems with the bank and huge delays, the central team of Apple vacations kept me updated every day and didn’t give up until the refund was in my account. I would definitely recommend them as they are super reliable and made our trip to Sri Lanka memorableWritten 12 November 2024
- Minamo M0 contributionsGreat experience in AnuradhapuraAnuradhapura is worth visiting!! It was a bit far away from the other sites so it was difficult to plan to go the by myself. However, Apple vacation helped for me to travel as I wanted. Thanks to them, I travelled safely and got a lot of knowledge. Thank you very much:)Written 18 October 2024

- blswarnkar580 contributionsOur Recent Sri Lanka Visit of October 2024We did it our own. It was a 6 nights and 7 days family tour of Sri Lanka. We were 5 (4 adults and 1 baby<2). Airport to airport taxi for the whole journey was amazing! The spacious taxi was full of comfort and convenience. It was dedicated to us 24x7 with an English speaking guide cum driver! We covered Colombo, Trincomalee, Sigiriya, Kandy, Nuwara Elia, Ella, Yala, Bentota with comfortable stay at different places managed by our own. The guide facilitated us with best of Indian food at various places of stay. The beaches, the mountains, the places of religious importance and the visit of Yala National Park were superb.Written 14 October 2024
- Prakriti T0 contributionsChanak is amazing, good tour company and the tour is a must do!Excellent! Excellent! I had a fabulous 4 day trip from Colombo , Dambulla Caves, Sigiriya, Kandy, Nuwara Eliya ( train ride),Ella, Spice market, Yala National Park, Mirissa ( whale watching), Galle and back to Colombo with Apple PVT Ltd and especially Chanak ( tour guide) Chanak when over and above to make my stay as enjoyable as possible. If you need a guide that can drive very well in all weather conditions, that can communicate in English, that knows Sri Lanka at the back of his hand ( history and vegetation) and someone that goes above and beyond to make sure that you see everything that you want - then Chanak is the one! He is really amazing and looked after me very well throughout my stay. I didn’t have the whale watching or yala safari booked before and Chanak did all this in a few hrs… he was very attentive and even gave me his binoculars for both trips. I decided to book the trip last minute and Chanak didn’t even have clothes for the 4 day trip as we decided to do on the spur! He still went ahead and tried to show me the best of Sri Lanka …this shows commitment and professionalism… thank you for making my stay in Sri Lanka so worthwhile!Written 10 October 2024

- vasv060 contributionsChanaka is an amazing host!Chanaka Jayasinghe was an amazing guide - a true professional with deep knowledge and passion for his country, and rightly so - Sri Lanka is a beautiful place. Chanaka ensured I was looked after the whole way, and even managed to secure a last minute train ticket for the famous Nuwara Eliya to Ella journey, despite it not being part of my original itinerary. Chanaka’s ability to respond quickly and decisively to my changing desires was truly appreciated. Thank you Chanaka!Written 15 September 2024

- Wander428009740900 contributionsBest holiday Ever! love you guysFirstly, I want to extend my sincere thanks to Jeev for the prompt response and exceptional service in customizing our holiday. You truly tailored the experience to our interests, ensuring we visited all the places we were excited about, and you even arranged special meals for my daughter, which we greatly appreciated. If you're considering travel to Sri Lanka or the Maldives, you can absolutely trust Apple Vacations. Their expertise and attention to detail left us with no doubts throughout the entire process. Our 9-day journey was made even more enjoyable with a comfortable vehicle, expertly driven by Thunu, and the knowledgeable guidance of Aaron. The hotel selections were outstanding, particularly Heritance Kandalama and Cinnamon Wild, which provided us with unforgettable stays.Written 18 August 2024
