I can’t recommend Miracle travel Sri Lanka enough! Ashad Wahab was great in both planning our trip, according to our preferences and making sure everything run smoothly on the ground. We had to move our trip by a year, and with Ashad that was no problem at all. Also during the trip, changes and modifications were treated in a very relaxed way, and he did everything so we could enjoy our holidays. We visited for two weeks in April 2023 with two kids aged 10 and 8. Don’t hesitate to visit Sri Lanka – it is a wonderful country with very friendly people and great activities for kids as well.
It was a wonderful experience. What was supposed to be a solo trip to Sri Lanka turned out to be something quite different, and it gave me a new experience. I got to know about Miracle Sri Lanka thru the numerous reviews commending on the impeccable services of this company. So after some planning and “ding dongs” with Ashad (The Founder), he came out with a travel plan which suited my time frame and also budget.
However, things got a little more interesting 1 month before the trip when Ashad informed me that there is a traveler from Poland looking to do the same travel plan during the same timeframe and asked if I was interested to have a travel partner for this trip. I thought to myself and said “Why Not”.
The day came when I was finally flying off to Colombo. Upon arrival, I was greeted by Ashad and his staff at the airport and introduced to Emilia who has been waiting patiently for 6 hours for my arrival. We were then ushered out to meet our driver/guide, Kanchana. So off on our little adventure. I am not too much of an essay writer and I’ll just sum up the whole trip with few words, it was simply “Awesome!!!” From the ancient ruins of Polonnaruwa to the majestic and awe inspiring Sigiriya, beautiful sunset at Mihintale to the serenity of Horton Plain, which needs a bit of walk early in the morning. Its worth, Sri Lanka truly deserves the title, “Paradise on Earth”. But the only thing that tops the rest would be the Sri Lankan themselves. Humble, friendly to a fault and always welcoming. Thank you Sri Lanka and Ashad for these great memories!
Hi! Ashad, We had only a very short time in Sri Lanka, 2 full days and 2 nights, but we felt as though we experienced the full extent of Sri Lanka’s beauty and hospitality in these short 2 days. We had arranged the details of the tour before our arrival in Sri Lanka. Upon arrival on the first day, our Chauffeur guide Mr. Shamril met us at the Colombo airport early in the morning and we headed towards Kandy. Along the way, he told us everything about Sri Lanka possible ranging from history, economy, geography, politics, sports, a fun and easy crash course on Sri Lanka! We stopped halfway for a scrumptious and very affordable breakfast of “hoppers” with dhal & curry & sambal and Sri Lankan tea. He guided us to Temple of the Tooth Relic, awesome historical structure. Quick run up to tea rails was wonderful, though it was not in the program, it was managed. We appreciate it so much. It was a wonderful quick tour!
Две недели в Шри Ланке Владимир, Ирина, Киев, Украина, март-апрель, 2012 Давно хотел побывать в Индии, но жена – ни в какую – боится антисанитарии. Сошлись на Шри Ланке: почти Индия, но (по отзывам друзей) чище и цивилизованее. В общем спланировали поездку на средину весны, чтобы до сезона дождей успеть. Спланировали маршрут на 9 дней по острову (на основе информации из Интернета) и заключительные 4 дня на южном побережье. Месяца за три до запланированного срока жена насела: «Срочно бери билеты, оформляй тур». Билеты на самолет взяли, а с туром оказалось сложнее – Шри Ланка все таки не Европа. И вдруг нам «повезло» – мой товарищ за пол года до нашей поездки был в Шри Ланке и познакомился с «очень хорошим гидом», местным, но русскоговорящим. Не буду рассказывать долго эту печальную историю, но начавшееся в Skipe радостное общение с фраз «Все организуем наилучшим образом! Это моя страна, я хочу показать ее вам во всей красе…» закончилось за неделю да нашего вылета унылым «Ну, я могу организовать вам тут машину с гидом, он говорит по английски…». К счастью, я уловил ниспадающий тренд в общении с ланкийским гидом Джаги и за пару недель до его прощальной фразы начал подыскивать другие варианты. Обращение в несколько тур фирм (в том числе и тех, которые очень активно пиарят в Интернете свою специализацию по Шри Ланке и большие возможности по организации отдыха там) не принесло ожидаемого результата. Оказалось, что в основном местные туроператоры отправляют клиентов отдыхать на побережье Индийского океана, а мы любим активный отдых, хотим увидеть страну, в которую приехали.
И, наконец, нам повезло по-настоящему. Где-то в форумах я встретил название ланкийского туроператора Miracle Sri Lanka. Зашел на их сайт, почитал отзывы, посмотрел предложения по маршрутам. Наш маршрут отличался от предлагаемых на сайте и я отправил его описание на фирму. Был приятно удивлен, что буквально через пару часов получил ответ от директора фирмы Ашада Вахаба. В итоге за пару дней мы согласовали маршрут, отели и прочие подробности. Организация тура Тур фирма Miracle Sri Lanka и ее руководитель Ашад Вахаб организовали наш отдых отлично. Начиная со встречи в аэропорту, передвижения по острову, экскурсий и заканчивая доставкой нас на побережье в Тангалле – все было четко и качественно организовано. Конечно большая заслуга в этом и нашего англоговорящего гида Канчаны Бандары. Честно говоря, как гид он не очень (что нас не напрягало, так, как мы подготовились и имели аудиогиды и много другой информации), но водитель просто отличный (тот, кто бывал на Шри Ланке, понимает как это важно там). Кроме того, это очень вежливый и деликатный человек. Путевые заметки Наше путешествие началось на второй после прибытия на остров день (первый день мы отдыхали в Негомбо – очень советую, т.к. перелет тяжелый). Маршрут следующий: Дамбулла – Полоннарува – Сигирия – национальный парк Миннерия – Матале – Канди – бот.сад Перадения –пик Адама – плато Хортон – Элла – Нувара Элия – национальный парк Ялла – Тангалле. Очень понравилось – Сигирия, Перадения, ночной пик Адама (Шри Пада), плато Хортон, Канди. О Сигирии и Перадении много информации в Интернете (must see), а Пик Адама ночью это что-то! Когда в полной темноте гора сливается с небом и вверх среди звезд протянулись огоньки, освещающие дорогу, да еще оранжевое зарево сверху горы живо напоминает кадры из «Властелина колец» и оттуда же раздаются молитвы – это впечатляет. На плато Хортон обязательно надо побывать. И как можно раньше утром. Восход Солнца над долиной плато Хортон – одно из сильнейших впечатлений о Шри Ланке. Не понравилось – национальный парк Миннерия – смотреть там нечего абсолютно (кроме слонов, да и то не всегда их встретишь). Развалины в Полоннаруве – на любителя раскопок – чем-то напоминают Римские форумы, но там с каждым камнем связаны факты мировой истории, а здесь никаких конкретных сведений нет. После расставания с фирмой Miracle Sri Lanka мы остановились в Тангалле и поняли, что это было очень правильно. За 4 дня мы проехали по побережью до
Галле и не нашли мест с таким большим песчаным пляжем и почти полным отсутствием людей на нем. Хотели пару дней побыть в Мириссе (начитались форумов!), хорошо, что без вещей туда приехали осмотреться – народу полно, столики на берегу в 4 ряда, различная музыка со всех сторон и прочие «прелести». Заключение В самом деле, Шри Ланка очень красивый и располагающий к отдыху остров. Одним из основных слагаемых успешного отдыха есть его правильная организация. Мы с женой благодарны господам Ашаду Вахабу, Канчане Бандаре и фирме Miracle Sri Lanka за отлично проведенное на Шри Ланке время. Владимир, Ирина, Киев, Украина
Traveled to Sri Lanka with my wife Traveled To Sri Lanka with my wife a couple of years ago. Very beautiful island. Very friendly and attentive people live there. Comfortable weather accompanied all 10 days of our journey, it was warm and sunny. We saw a wonderful elephant orphanage in Pinnawela, Temple of the Tooth Relic in Kandy, drove through beautiful tea plantations and much more. All nights were in cozy little hotels with a delicious breakfast. And the last few days, we rested on the coast of the Bay of Bengal in Trincomalee. It was wonderful vacation!
Thank you Ashad, Latheef and Team Miracle Sri Lanka. We were a group of 8 tourists from Hyderabad & Visakhapatnam, India and wanted to spend a week in Sri Lanka in Jan 2018. We took quotations from 10 companies one of them being Destination Serendib (Pvt) Ltd. – Miracle Sri Lanka. DSPL’s quotation was good (as was a few others’) but Mr.Ashad Wahab’s response was superior to the rest because he gave specific ideas and options which helped us get better value for our money. After the plan was finalised, Mr. Wahab accepted our request for adding two more guests who wanted to spend only 4 days and also had special requests regarding places of visit. DSPL (Mr.Wahab) responded very well again by planning in such a way that everyone was satisfied.
If I were to describe our experience with DSPL/Miracle Sri Lanka in brief words, I would say: Plan tailored excellently to our preferences and requirements; Accommodation arranged in very good properties; Time utilisation and sights visited were good; Prompt response in all stages of the trip; Comfortable vehicle arranged. We give full marks to Mr.Wahab who made our trip memorable and also the chauffeur and guide Lateef who was more like a friend and helped us spend our time well with his inputs on the fly. When we ran into unexpected issues (like a shoe that needed repair or a broken suitcase that needed to be fixed), Lateef ensured that our problem was solved without delay.
Everyone of our 10-member group was satisfied immensely and none had any complaints whatsoever. I would not hesitate recommending Miracle Sri Lanka – Destination Serendib (Pvt) Ltd., to anyone who would like to have a memorable trip to Sri Lanka.
As we really enjoyed our tour round Sri Lanka, we would like to tell you our impressions. Tour Operator Miracle Sri Lanka (Destination Serendib) – no hesitation to recommended! Our round trip was agreed before our arrival to Sri Lanka. Our guide Mr. Ashad Wahab (at the same time – company‘s owner) provided us a lot of worth ideas and helped us to create superb itinerary for two adults and a child of 3 years old. As he said – our itinerary was a mix of adventure tour and some culture. And you know, our tour was really worth to be paid the agreed amount! We started our round trip early in the morning from our hotel in Beruwela (with a meeting of Mr. Ashad and Russian speaking guide – Mr. W. Sachitra). The very first point was Pinnawala Elephant Orpahnage. It was really great experience! To watch the elephants in their daily bath in the river was a breathtaking. Thanks to Ashad and Sachitra, who knew the best time to go and see their bathing procedures, we got there in time. After that we went to Kandalama Lake. It was amazing, too. It was worth to visit Polonnaruwa – the ruins were well preserved. Kings built huge temples, palaces, parks, gardens. Moreover, there were three amazing Buddha statues cut directly into the rock face at Gal Vihara. Ashad and team made it so much memorable, thank you once again.
My self and two of my friends landed in Sri Lanka in different schedules. Did a quick hunt for a tour operator, got few quotes but surprisingly “Miracle Sri Lanka” was quick in responding with more options with accommodating our requests to explore the Island. Upon confirmation, surprisingly the owner Ashad showed up to take us around for 10 plus days. Since the Island was on a 3 decade civil war, we were keen in exploring possible war zones too. He was wonderful, with loads of information, finding us some unique out of the way places, with decent accommodation and helping us to get the most our of the days and the places we visited. Highlight is that, any part of the Island, he does the maximum with his local contacts. Simply a great personality to offer the best in the Island.
Amazing 10 day trip Ashad and Miraclesrilanka Tours provided the best possible experience for us on our recent trip to Sri Lanka. Not only were we driven to and from the airport, they provided a driver (Latheef) to give us a great experience and feel for the country. Latheef was not only a brilliant driver (much needed in SL!), he was a very interesting guy and had a great understanding of what we would enjoy. His knowledge of the country and his contacts wherever we went were valuable. He was also very reliable and put in many hours during the week, nothing was too much trouble. They were also excellent value. Highly recommend!
7 days of bliss. All perfectly arranged to the tee -> Thanks to Miracle Sri Lanka team. Making arrangements for a family of five vegetarians between the age group 8-67 years wasn’t going to be easy but Miracle Sri Lanka team made everything look like a breeze. The vehicle assigned for the trip was very comfortable and clean. The hotels were good. Special mention for Sonak (who was our driver and guide throughout the trip). He is a great human being and has a good command over the English language. He made every attempt to help us wherever he could. Highly recommended
Excellent value for money. If one is travelling to Sri Lanka and would ask for my advise on which tour operator to choose, it will undoubtedly be Destination Serendib (Pvt) Ltd. – Miracle Sri Lanka. Special thanks to Ashad, Sonak and Atif for leading from the front.
Thank you for the great tour in Sri Lanka! I was a single traveler, concerned on my available number of holidays and budget. I am a traveler and this time my destination was Sri Lanka. Communicated with few travel operators, Miracle Sri Lanka planned the trip with perfect fit and fast in processing. Thaha was my allocated chauffeur, it was a early morning arrival, we met and sooner we got into comfortable zone. Throughout the trip never in a moment he hesitated for what ever request. My number of days was only 5 and perfectly planned. Though I have not spoken to Ashad, he is a perfect holiday planner. Within my available number of days covered Cultural Triangle and those locations not to be missed. Thank you Miracle Sri Lanka and I have already recommend to few of my friends.
From the time we exited Colombo Airport, we did not have any regrets of engaging Mr Ashad of Miracle Sri Lanka for our ground tour of enchanting Sri Lanka for the next 10 days. The hotels provided by them was just great such as the Jetwing Northgate in Jaffna. The Steuart by Citrus in Colombo. It would not be fair if we do not give credit to our driver for the entire trip – Mr. Ramesh . He did not flinch even a moment at all our request and stop overs and was forever accommodating all our requirements. Overall, it was a FANTASTIC experience travelling with Miracle Sri Lanka. Try them and you will not regret your decision.
Miracle Sri Lanka is five out of five in my book! Ashad and I planned our itinerary together, and Anil met us at the Colombo Airport. We were a party of five, and they both looked after us every step of the way. Although I did not meet Ashad, he called twice to make sure everything was going well. We loved the personal attention, and the variety of activities and sites recommended were the perfect balance. Sri Lanka is a beautiful country with so many wonderful activities and sites. Miracle Sri Lanka made it possible for us to visit beaches, hike in the rain forest, take a Yala jeep safari, a train ride to Ella, visit temples, and so much more. Ashad and Anil arranged for us to indulge in Sri Lankan history, culture, cuisine!!! We highly recommend Miracle Sir Lanka and their personal, individual touch!!
Amazing Sri Lanka trip…from Negambo to Dambulla, Kandy, Nuwara Eliya, Ella and Yala…from the sea to the mountains climbing Sigiriya Fortress and Little Adams Peak, experience a zip line flying, visiting UNESCO protected sides, elephants Orphanage, tea fields, Temples…Thank you Ashad for a well taught itinerary and activities, for booking us excellent hotels and for choosing such a competent, friendly and patient driver, Anil…you two met all our expectations. Definitely we will recommend Miracle Sri Lanka to our friends.
We were recommended “miraclesrilanka”, planed our 12 days 11 nights tour with them, surprisingly we were picked and taken by
Ashad Wahab who is really nice, kind and knew to offer best of Sri Lanka. It was an exiting exploration, and its five out of
five. We do not hessitate to recommend Ashad to anyone that wants explore this beautiful Island.
We have been visiting Sri Lanka since 2009, by myself and in numbers family and friends. We only have to indicate our clear plans to Ashad of Miracle Sri Lanka. Wonderful planning and implementation by “miraclesrilanka” team, any shortcomings are sorted at fingertips and 24×7 reachable.
This was a request by Ashad to give them a review during this difficult times Sri Lanka is facing, politically and economically to boost their income and florigen revenue for the nation. No doubt, Sri Lanka has so much to offer with cream of hospitality.
