- Adrienn G0 contributionsReally good to see sea life. The coral is very bigThe staff is very nice and helpful. I felt safe with him around. We could not see turtles around the corals but they took us for a few hundred meters away where the turtles were. It was a life experience. Thank you so much. They helped us even with transport from Riu hotel for extra fees but the driver was really good too. Safe and kind. Took us for a half day trip around the coast. It was a good choice to book with them.Written 14 March 2025

- OeysteinK0 contributionsWell worth the river cruise. We would highly recommend it to other families with young children. And to everybody else.The guide was very friendly with us and our eight years old boy. The river cruise was very good with much to see. And as advertised we stopped at a interesting buddhist temple, and at Cinnemon Island with a informative guide of how to make tea, cinnemon powder, rope etc. from the cinnemon three. And it was very fun with the stop where the fishes did eat from our feet in the water.Written 17 February 2025
- keziahazelp0 contributionsFantastic Experiencebooked Madu Boat Safari trip with Suduhansa Tours. It was a great experience for me and I enjoyed the boat ride, plantations, prawn fishing and local fishermen fishing, Fish pedicure, cinnamon farm.and the monastery on one of the island. We also stopped to have King Coconut and Ice cream from one of the shops on stilts in the river. This was owned by Ravindu’s parents and his mother was there to sell us what we wanted. I did not see any crocodiles during my trip. I guess they were underwater. Overall I enjoyed my boat ride of approximately 2.5 hours with Ravindu’s father who rode the boat for us.Written 12 February 2025
- keziahazelp0 contributionsFantastic ExperienceI enjoyed everything from the.boat ride to seeing fishermen fishing in their boats to seeing different species of birds to enjoying the fish pedicure and cinnamon farm and the monastery temple on the island The boatman was very knowledgeable and gave so much of information of the various islands located on the river. Also we had ice cream and King coconut water in the middle of the river from a stilt shop I did not see any crocodiles though during the trip.Written 11 February 2025

I booked this tour through TA. The driver picked me up at 730am sharp in colombo, drove 3 hrs and met by guide, he took me on bike to entrance and we started the trek. I saw chameleons, millipedes, snakes and spiders, along with 3 waterfalls. I tried to climb the 1st one but slipped, my guide was so gracious and helpful. I also got bit by a leech on my foot, he bandaged the bite.God bless him. You should have some level of fitness to do this trek, its uphill in places. I swam in the 2nd waterfall area. I recommend this one.
We then ate lunch at his mothers restaurant which is homecooked sri lankan food. I was told many foreigners decline. They truly are missing out on authentic sri lankan cuisine. I very much recommend this tour/trek

Was good, saw lots of small animals such as snakes, lizards and centipedes but no birds as we got there late morning. The misty forest scenery on way up was also beautiful. The only negative was that it poured with rain- we got completely drenched- so a bit of warning from the guide about leaving dry clothes and shoes in car and having an Umbrella or two would have been useful.

We had a really good time. Our tour guide was really patient with us and explained things in detail when. We chose to only hike the rainforest for about 2 hours because it was so humid but the tour could’ve continued for 4-5 hours. We saw giant snails, monkeys, a tarantula, snakes, and even more animals and insects. It was a really good time and we would definitely do it again.

A guided walk through the jungle which was a fantastic experience.
The guide was so helpful finding jungle creatures for us to see and photograph. The waterfalls are spectacular.
We saw fish and crayfish in the rock pools, it was a wonderful day.

The day in the Sinharaja Rainforest was an absolute adventure. Samira brought us safe and fast to the starting point of the tour with an experienced tour guide there and back. The whole tour through an authentic part of the SInharaja Rainforest took nearly 5 hours as we discovered exotic plants and animals like monkeys, snakes, butterflies, geckos and many more.
Because of the ground moisture we unfortunately encoutered many leeches, so get prepared beforehand and pack long socks, sturdy shoes or (even better buy) leech socks, as they try to find their way to your skin (not poisonous but annoying).

I booked the tour thru Sudhhansa tours. They are very professional in their approach and customised the tour according to my needs. Even they changed the timing of our departure from hotel in Colombo to Sinharaja as per my request. The driver who drove me to the forest was amazing too with a helpful heart. And oh boy, what should I say about the sinharaja forest... It's pristine and a hidden gem in Srilanka. Majestic waterfalls, never seen before flora and fauna and away from all hustles and bustles. Must visit place if you are visiting srilanka.

It was a very pleasant and comfortable experience. The driver arrived in the morning just as promised to pick me up. He drove me to the Rainforest and the Ranger was already waiting for me, so the tour could start immediately.
The tour itself was also very nice (10/10). We saw lots of animals, beautiful plants and my highlight was the swimming in the waterfall.
When the tour was over the driver already waited for me outside to drive me home.
The van had AC and the driver stopped on the way home to buy me a delicious coconut!🥰

Great tour and organisation. We truly enjoyed our time on the trip and had a great day in the Sinharaja Rainforest. We got amazing views of the rainforest and sightings of animals including snakes, butterflies, monkeys and peacocks.
