About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- crradis4e0 contributionsVery good experienceWe did more than it's expected on this trip. Dambulla, Sigirya, SPA. And we could do a little trip to the National Park to see the elefants but I was not interested Sigirya is unexpectedly easy to climb. Even the kids and the old people are doing it. The views are amazing! The guide was very helpful. But as for every guide in Sri Lanka, I'd rather call him a driver than a guideWritten 15 February 2025

According to our requirements he gave us a well planned itinerary with stunning locations, comfortable accommodation in hotels & vehicles. This tour inspired & made us learn lot about the cultures, religions & traditions of a different nation. Discoveries of Sung Sot cave & family's swimming at Halong Bay were amazing. Wow! Kayaking with my daughter at Halong Bay was incredibly exiting. Reaching to the "Roof of Indochina in Sapa by Furnicular & Cable car was thrilling.

- craigmP3778XQ0 contributions1 day trip negombo to wilpattuI had an unforgettable experience on my safari trip to Wilpattu National Park, and I can't recommend it enough! Thanks to Overa Tours, I was able to book the trip last minute, and they did an exceptional job organizing everything. From the moment I was picked up, the service was top-notch. The safari was filled with incredible wildlife sightings, including not one, but three leopards! I also had the incredible fortune of seeing sloth bears, and there was no shortage of other amazing animals like elephants, birds, and various deer species. The highlight of the trip, of course, was the rare leopard sightings — an experience I will never forget. The guides and drivers were highly knowledgeable and incredibly patient, making sure we didn’t miss a thing. However, the service didn't stop there. I had a bit of a mishap when I lost my phone in the forest, but Overa Tours went above and beyond to help me recover it. The drivers and staff worked tirelessly to track it down and made sure it was returned to me safely — something that really impressed me. It’s rare to see such dedication and care for customers, and it truly made my experience even more memorable. If you're looking for a seamless, adventure-packed safari experience, I highly recommend Overa Tours for their professionalism, dedication, and exceptional service.Written 28 December 2024
- craigmP3778XQ0 contributions1 day tripI booked my trip with Overa Tours, was very lastminute and they did everything to sort out my trip for the next day, was very well organized and was stress free for me. the trip in the park was amazing. Was so lucky to see 3 leopards one mother and 2 cubs which was amazing. my driver was so good. unfortunately i lost my phone on the trip and Nazz and the team did everything they could to get it back too me and I should have it in the next few days. they organized it mostly themselves to get it sent to my friend. They answered all my questions and I really think they are one of the best companies to go with. Back to the trip it was so good saw plenty of animals. had a good lunch and breakfast as well, they had more than enough food for me and the drive to the park and back to negombo was very good got too sleep both ways so props to the driver.Written 27 December 2024

We recommended overa travels as preferred travel agency in Srilanka. This is third time we have utilised their services and they always done great job planning out travel needs. They can customise your end to end plan with english speaking guide in Srilanka based in your budget.
Susantha is an experienced driver/tour guide who speaks good English and very flexible with out travel plan and friendly. This time I was travelling with my mother and they have ensured to take care of the senior citizen needs. Appreciate their work and recommend to consider Overa if you are planning trip to Srilanka.

A trip/holiday of a lifetime experiencing the amazing country Sri Lanka. We have booked through #OveraTours Kalutara. They provided an reasonable package of 4 days and 3 Nights, covering almost all amazing sights.
We got a Car with driver Ganesh (Morayas-Mora), actually I should not call driver but he was actually our Guide for the tour. My 3 years kid enjoy the company with Ganesh during Tour.
During the tour I felt very safe atmosphere there. Ganesh helped us lot to explain the things, their Royal culture, and activities in Sri Lanka.
I wish all the very best to Overa Tour and Ganesh for the future. I would recommend everyone from my friends to must visit Sri Lanka and would suggest to go with Overa Tours to make their holiday safe and memorable.
Thanks & regards

Mr. Susantha and Mr. Bander are epitome of what a tour guides should be - kind, patient, friendly and an excellent drivers. Mr. Susantha knew all the gems Sri Lanka has to offer and gave us some really great recommendations.
Every morning we are greeted with two smiling faces and honestly they were so wonderful to travel with! We spent two weeks traveling Sri Lanka with them from Negombo, Dambula, Kandy, Nuwara Eliya, Ella, Galle, Bentota :)
Together we climbed the Pidurangala Rock during sunrise, we saw beautiful temples - even underrated ones. We watched the traditional Sri Lankan dance in Kandy and took us around the Temple of the tooth. He took us to an amazing seafood restaurant in Bentota (Amal).
Mr. Susantha went above and beyond to make our trip comfortable and the best it could possibly be. He got us waters after long hikes, snacks and even a fresh coconut as we watched the train in Ella cross the Nine Arches Bridge.
I can’t recommend him and Mr. Bander enough. Hands down the best tour guides in Sri Lanka! We will be back and contacting him again during our next visit!!! 😊

I cannot recommend Mubarak Riyas highly enough as a driver and guide for a visit to Sri Lanka. From the time he met our group of 4 until the end of our trip, Mubarak was incredibly knowledgeable, fantastic as sharing information about the various places we visited, excellent at problem-solving, flexible in accommodating our various interests, and always kind, even-tempered and with the best sense of humor! We not only learned so much about the country and its lovely people and traditions, but we also laughed a lot on the long drives. His car is spotless and comfortable and he always provided us with fresh water and masks.
We had an amazing trip thanks to Mubarak.

Great trip I worked out with Overa staff. We wanted an emphasis on wildlife and culture so not too much touristy stuff.
We were very happy with the quality of the hotels and the included breakfast was good.
Our driver was very attentive and 100% reliable. I would definitely not drive myself there.
Changes I would make would be + a day in Ella, -2 of 3 nights in Nuwara Elya and stay a night in Galle. We only toured there 3 hours.
Definitely do the Ella train and some safaris.

We were lucky to do a 10 day tour with the driver-guide Anura "Claude", he was a very responsible man, a safe driver.
The traffic in sri lanka is very crazy, but Anura made the travel hours safe.
In addition, the entire tour accompanied us with the stories and ancient traditions of Sri Lanka.
We will surely return to Sri Lanka with Anura "Claude" !!!!

I travelled to Sri Lanka with my parents and sister and we had a great time with Overa, especially Nuwan who drove us around. He’s extremely polite, patient, well-versed and caring. Overa fulfilled all our requirements and requests. I’d highly recommend them for making arrangements of your holidays in Sri Lanka.
