11-Day Private Family Tour

“Sri Lanka is a fantastic country with so much to offer. I was recommended to use Serene Vacations from my family. Susan & Dinesh did not disappoint — in fact it was truly 1st Class & all the details landed perfectly. We (family of 4 from London) had an eleven day tour which was packed full of fun & done at a comfortable pace. Highlights included the train ride from Nuwara Eliya to Demodara & Tribe Yala. Beach was fantastic (Pasikuda) — tea plantations — Safari — plus much more. Susan took the hassle out of our holiday & at a very fair price! A 5-star vacation. Highly recommend!!”

9-Day Custom Island Journey

“My 9-day tour of beautiful Sri Lanka with Serene Vacations was just amazing. Organizing the itinerary with Dinesh was quite seamless and he adjusted it according to my preferences in terms of accommodation, activities and pace. My tour guide and driver, Isuru, was great! Attentive, skilful on the mountain roads, and constantly adjusting activities to my taste. I certainly had a fantastic time in Sri Lanka thanks to these gentlemen.”

2-Week Curated Sri Lanka Tour

“Our personally curated 2-week trip to Sri Lanka was fantastic, easy to arrange and worked seamlessly. Our driver was very polite, friendly and offered various stops along the way to add interest to the trip. The hotels arranged for us were all excellent and communication with Susan was instantaneous and accommodating even when we wanted to make a slight alteration during the trip. I would highly recommend Serene Vacations to anyone planning a trip to Sri Lanka.”

11-Day Island Exploration

“It was a memorable trip indeed, personalized from start to finish. Susan made sure that all our requests were met, including our 12-year-old son’s dream of staying at a tree house (we stayed at Leopard Nest Yala!). The trip was so well planned and coordinated that there were zero hiccups from the airport pickup to dropping us off at the end. Our vehicle was very spacious and comfortable, and our guide Dasun took care of everything for all 11 days.”
