TRINCOMALEE
Travelling approximately 250km just to get a Tan is a laugh, but if it is for Nilaveli and Uppuveli beaches at Trincomalee (dearly addressed as ‘Trinco’) then it’s perfectly alright! You are not only able to get the glowing bronze skin you always wanted. But you’ll also be able to watch whales and dolphins swim, visit the World War II cemetery if the sorrowful era tickles your thirst for knowledge, Read more »

Paula Zerafa2023-09-19We totally recommend Shali Leisure Lanka Tours! Mahesh, the travel coordinator, was very responsive and helpful throughout the whole booking process. The final fee amount was very good and worth it and it was also slightly cheaper compared to another transport agency’s quote. Our driver, Amila, was the best! We really enjoyed his company throughout our 13 night stay in beautiful Sri Lanka. He was always very helpful, on time, drove extremely safely and a pleasure to have around. He was also very knowledgeable about Sri Lanka’s history and wildlife so we learnt a lot through him. He also helped us to coordinate some bookings whilst we were there, and suggested to visit some really beautiful places which we didn’t know about, such as Upper Diyalma Falls which were one of the highlights of our trip. We are very grateful to have visited Sri Lanka with Amila. We definitely recommend him! Before arriving in Sri Lanka, we suggest you ask Mahesh to go through your itinerary (if you have created your own) so that he can suggest the best places to see/days to spend in a particular area. We will definitely be back! ????????????❤️

Sinthu Theivendran2023-08-06I had the privilege of embarking on a remarkable 3-week journey through the stunning landscapes of Sri Lanka, all thanks to the exceptional services provided by Uresh from Shali Leisure Lanka Tours. Uresh served as our dedicated car driver, and his presence truly elevated our entire experience. Uresh's kindness and friendliness were evident from the very beginning. His warm smile and genuine demeanor instantly made us feel welcomed and at ease. Throughout our journey, he consistently went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and enjoyment. His friendly nature created a positive and enjoyable atmosphere, making every moment of the trip memorable. Uresh's driving skills were nothing short of brilliant.

His attention to detail and careful consideration of our preferences ensured a seamless and enjoyable travel experience. We were able to fully immerse ourselves in the beauty of the country, knowing that we were in the hands of a skilled and responsible driver. In summary, Uresh from Shali Leisure Lanka Tours is more than just a car driver; he is a genuine gem of a person who adds an extra layer of warmth and authenticity to any travel experience. His kind-hearted nature, friendliness, humility, and exceptional driving skills make him an invaluable asset to anyone exploring Sri Lanka.
