"It was amazing experience for us! They have perfect customer service, our guide was very friendly and helpful. It takes about two hours and offers beautiful view during the journey. We saw some animals and birds, cinnamon island and small island with the Buddhist temple. I recommend to everyone who visit Sri Lanka!"

“We did this tour as our driver recommended this. It was a great experiment. Our guide/boat driver was really amazing. His name was Jaylath and he was the coolest guy. He explained everything perfectly and made us feel really good. He took pictures from us at nice places and was just genuinely nice. I would recommend this 100%.”

“This was a stop on our travel from Colombo to Unawatuna and we’re so happy we done this tour. You see many different animals. I held a blue jellyfish which was a new experience! The cinnamon island story is great, and dipping our feet into the fish was hilarious. Visiting the temple was impressive as they generally all are. Thank you so much for a great trip.”
