Olanka Travels at Lankan Fest 2025: A Day of Culture, Community & Celebration in Melbourne

Just reviewing these photos to post on google brought back such wonderful memories of our trip to Sri Lanka. From beginning to end it was a wonderful experience, made more so by the assistance of Shashini who put the trip together and Pujitha who worked tirelessly to ensure that our trip was a memorable one. Should you be considering a trip to this wonderful island with its welcoming people I would highly recommend Olanka Travels to assist you. They took the time to understand our needs and met our expectations in every respect. Receiving our chocolate cake at our hotels to celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary did not go unnoticed. Thank you so much Olanka Travels

Anjali from Olanka Travels put together an amazing 3 week trip that included Kandy, Ella, Tangalle, Galle and a week of safaris in Yala & Udawalawe Parks. Chamod our driver was best ever, Great hotels, wonderful suggestions of places to see and side trips. Anjali was super helpfull in the planning & when we were there. Absolutely recommend and will definitely revisit the amazing country of Sri Lanka & Olanka Travels. Thank you Anjali.

This was by far one of the best trips of our lives! My kids (5 and 8) adored it from beginning to end, and miss it so much! We all do. A major thanks to Rashmi Wijesinghe, our tour consultant, who not only planned and organized our entire trip, but who also sent us a lovely message every morning and made sure we were happy and comfortable throughout this unforgettable journey in the most exceptional and exceptionally beautiful country. She even got us gifts! Thank you for this enriching experience with an incredible driver/tour guide/now friend (Janith Perera), the incredible food, the encounters with the loveliest people, the most stunning sights... We will definitely be back soon!

Priyanga was our trip organiser and I must say she outdid herself. She was always available to answer any of our questions and she planned a wonderful itinerary for us. The hotels were 4* but you must remember that the standard of 4* varies throughout the country. The hotels in Colombo, Kandy and Nuarelia were fantastic! Our guide Roshan was also brilliant, from the moment he picked us up at the airport we knew we were in safe hands. He was very knowledgeable and suggested lots of other things that were not on the itinerary incase we wanted to do any (which we did). Doing this trip without the company would have been very time consuming and stressful so it was great to be able to experience so much of Sri Lanka...

The organization was perfect. Sanjana had taken all our wishes into account when planning and created a very good itinerary. The advice was very professional and had no waiting times. We were able to communicate with Sanjana via WhatsApp at any time. Thank you Sanjana for the great organization! Upon arrival we were very warmly received at the airport by our guide and driver Keith! During the holiday he was always there, told a lot about the country and recognized and fulfilled all our wishes! For all the activities planned, Keith has always made sure that we get the best seats or that we avoid waiting times. Thank you Keith, you were great! We can recommend the Olanka team to you for your planning, you are in good hands here!

We love Olanka Travels!! We are a family of six and we travelled stress free, thanks to Olanka Team. We would like to thanks our tour guide/driver Mr. Chaturanga (who was very helpful and patient with my kids) and to Ms. Reshani for the smooth coordination and answers our queries and looked after our travel needs. Olanka team is very responsive and was able to tailor our trip according to our needs. They are approachable and timely responding to our concerns. They even arranged a surprise birthday cake and decoration for my son who turned 13th last December. We will definitely recommend Olanka for all your SriLanka tours! All the best Olanka Travels.

I recently booked a 6-day vacation to Bali through Olanka Travels, and I'm beyond impressed with the experience. From the start, I had the pleasure of working with Sharanie, who went above and beyond to ensure my trip was perfect. Her professionalism and genuine care in planning the perfect holiday made all the difference. Sharanie designed a fantastic itinerary that blended relaxation, adventure, and cultural exploration seamlessly. Every aspect was carefully planned, from the hotel bookings and airport transfers to the guided tours. She coordinated everything perfectly, and her quick responses to my inquiries made the entire process effortless. She checked in before, during, and after my vacation to make sure everything was going well. Her friendly, approachable nature and constant availability provided me with peace of mind throughout the entire...

Our recent family trip to Sri Lanka organized by Savithri Travel Advisor was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we landed to the day we departed, every detail was meticulously planned, ensuring an unforgettable experience for us and our children. Savithri, our dedicated travel advisor, went above and beyond to craft a personalized tour that catered to our family's interests and preferences. Her attention to detail was evident in the diverse itinerary she prepared, covering everything from cultural landmarks to breathtaking natural wonders. Upon our arrival, we were warmly welcomed by Jaya our driver. The genuine hospitality extended to us made us feel right at home in a foreign land. What truly touched us was the thoughtful gesture of the special gift Rashmi brought for our kids. It was a heartwarming...
