This is our third trip to Sri Lanka with “Walk With Jith”. On our first visit some 9 years ago we did some intense birding and saw 204 different species in 14 days. On our second trip 3 or 4 years ago we concentrated on finding the 4 endemics we missed previously. This time we took a more relaxed approach leaving out the rain forest and having more time enjoying the excellent facilities at the hotels we stopped at but still saw 151 different species together with mammals, reptiles, including a 20-foot-long python and countless beautiful butterflies. Our accommodation was first class ranging from the colonial Bandarawela hotel dating back to 1893 to the latest resort hotels. The food everywhere was excellent and almost exclusively buffet style so we could be adventurous or play it safe. Our guide and driver, Upali was superb at finding, spotting and identifying everything we saw and drove through the traffic smoothly which is no mean feat. Sri Lanka is a wonderful birding and holidaying destination. The people are so friendly, welcoming and helpful, we can thoroughly recommend visiting Sri Lanka with “Walk With Jith”. It is great value for money, and you will be able to tailor your holiday to meet your needs and desires as we have done across our three visits.
