In October of this year, I had the opportunity to spend my holidays on the unforgettable island of Sri Lanka.

Beforeleavingfortheisland,thankstotherecommendationsofothervacationers,aswellasthankstotheglobalnetworkContact,wemetanexcellentRussian-speakingguideAesh(http://vk.com/id178566292, Ayesh Desilva-Bentota), who, for a very reasonable fee, agreed to organize and conduct for us several excursions. Exclusively thanks to him and his brother, who during all the excursions accompanied us behind the wheel of a comfortable car, which is very important for this area, we were able to see many wonderful places. The beauty of the organized excursions was also that the roads along which we were taken were absolutely not touristy, and we were able to enjoy the richness and beauty of the wildlife of Sri Lanka. Thanks to the guys, in one day we saw a large-scale, majestic and beautiful Ramboda waterfall, visited a tea factory and tea plantations, tasted several varieties of tea, and later purchased the varieties we liked. We visited a jewelry factory, where we could see minerals of the first and second jewelry order, we also visited the central botanical garden, where we admired a variety of flowers, trees brought from different parts of the world. At the end of such an eventful day, we visited a genuine leather shop, a spice shop and all kinds of Ayurvedic delights. And of course, we ended up in an elephant nursery, where we had seen enough of the beautiful and noble elephants. We could not only see and touch them, but also make trips while sitting on their backs! In time, the tour lasted the whole day, namely from 4 am to 11 pm (very tiring, but unforgettable emotions). The next excursion organized by Aesh consisted of visiting a turtle farm, factories for the production of traditional Sri Lankan masks, natural fabrics. We were also able to ride a boat through the mangroves, see a lot of water devices designed for catching fish, get to know monkeys, fish that do massage and pedicure, as well as a crocodile))). At the end of this tour, we visited the city of Galle, saw the main attraction, the defensive Fort of Galle. As on the first excursion, we were overwhelmed with emotions.


Our guide was with us all the time, introduced us to the history of this or that place, prompted and supported. We recommend everyone to contact this guy!! !
