Experience Travel Group Traveller Reviews

We travelled with 2 young children (10 years and 6 years) and wanted to do something a bit different than just go to the normal sites. We ended up swimming in waterfalls, biking around Polunawara, kayaking, eating lunch at a farm, visiting a tea plantation, having afternoon tea, staying in a mudhouse with no electricity! We loved it and had a fantastic time!

ETG were really good. I explained that we wanted some adventure and to do different things on the holiday to keep the children stimulated. Holly provided some really good advice based on her experiences there and suggested the Mudhouse which ended up being one of our favourite parts of the holiday,. It made me realise, that knowledge of the country based on their experience of the activities are really key for the consultants who develop the holiday as they can provide really good ideas and insight.

We had an absolutely incredible family holiday in Sri Lanka. The holiday was flawlessly organised by Becky at Experience Travel. Sri Lanka was an incredible destination and the variety on offer is fantastic. From the different types of accommodation, activities, scenery, wildlife, vegetation, food, experiences ... We particularly appreciated our driver-guides local knowledge which meant we visited places and enjoyed road side snacks we may not have found on our own. In addition, it was evident that Experience Travel supported local businesses and people and really did promote sustainable and eco tourism. There was so much to do and see we really could have stayed longer.

Experience Travel were amazing. Becky really understood our family needs and budget and created a holiday that far exceeded our expectations. Everything was organised to an incredibly high level and the little thoughtful details were hugely appreciated such as snacks in the van, pre-stamped postcards, maps, amazing photos roadside stops for snacks and drinks, birthday cake on my son's burthday birthday to name just a few! The local driver-guide (Chandana) was an excellent driver and knowledgeable guide. We learnt so much from him. The activities and experiences ETG organised for us were interesting and really gave us a flavour into the real Sri Lanka. Absolutely everything ran like clockwork but we felt able to be flexible too. I would definitely use Experience Travel again and recommend them 100%. Truly excellent.

Our holiday in Sri Lanka and a few days in the Maldives was well constructed against our family’s needs and interests. Great trips and accommodation with amazing food throughout.

Becky at Experience Travel Group listened well to our requests and worked with us during the planning phase and in the run up to the trip. Really impressed.

An amazing trip around central and northern Sri Lanka experiencing the wonderful people; food; wildlife and scenery.

Experience Travel Group is excellent. Our consultant (Becky Grainger) had wonderful local knowledge and delivered a perfect schedule within our budget. The quality of guides and hotels were first class. The people; food; wildlife and scenery of Sri Lanka were second to none which led to us having a truly memorable holiday. ETG has a wonderful ethos and does tourism the right way - supporting the country and worthwhile causes and steering customers away from experiences which may be harming the local people and wildlife.

Amazing!

ETG really listened to what we asked and planned a perfect itinerary for us

15 days split between touring the hill county and cultural triangle and having a nice break on a luxury resort on golden white sands

ETG planned our holiday so well and really captured what we wanted in a holiday to suit a family with 3 children aged 15 to 20. when there we had a guide/driver with us and there knowledge of the island was second to none.

A round trip extending to Singapore, Bali and the Komodo National Park with the busy hustle and bustle of Singapore (old and new), the temples and paddy fields of Bali and the famous dragons of Komodo.

Knowledgeable and experienced. We wanted a fairly unusual itinerary which was truly bespoke and we were very happy with the arrangements made from the flights to the local tours.

Travelled to Sri Lanka with my grandson, had an amazing time and had experiences which dreams are made of. The hospitality of the Sri Lankan’s is amazing and cannot praise this beautiful country and its people enough.

Professional, efficient and listened to what we wanted and we got that and more!
