Visit Galle - The city resembles no other city in Sri Lanka, and meandering around through the tight lanes makes you even overlook that you are in Sri Lanka. It really wants to walk the lanes of a medieval city in Europe! Extremely peculiar in away

This trip from Colombo to see Galle makes for a long day. I enjoyed the sea turtle conservancy where we stopped and I released a little hatchling into the sea. The stilt fishermen are just posing for photos and charging money. Hardly worth the stop. Galle looked like the kind of place that would have been good to have stayed in for a night. Probably good restaurants there too. We stopped at a buffet type place on the way back and altho it was nice and had an ocean view, I am not a fan of buffet food and some other choice in Galle may have been better. My driver basically was just the driver and did not offer much as far as telling me anything about the country as most guides would do. Being as I was based in Colombo for just a couple of days I didn't have much time to do this properly. I would suggest planning the trip to Sri Lanka to include more time outside the city and to plan for at least a week long stay. Sri Lanka has a lot to offer and Colombo only takes a couple of hours to see the interesting parts of the city.

We had just completed a two week private tour of Sri Lanka with another company which was excellent value for money. With the Viator Galle tour we assumed we would get equal value. Nothing could have been further from reality. It was poor value for money. It did not follow the published itinerary, missing out the Stilt Fishing and introducing a river/mango trip without prior notification. This had an expensive additional entrance charge with fish massage (which we didn’t do) as a further add on and a Cinamon Island “tour” which was basically a Cinamon product sales pitch. The published itinerary cannot be completed sensibly in the allocated 10 hours. Really poor value. We will not be using Viator for tours again
