We had an amazing experience with Lanka Trek on an unforgettable two-day trip. The trail offered stunning landscapes and beautiful waterfalls. We also visited Walpolamulla, known as the smallest village in South Asia. Even though this was a budget package, the service was excellent and highly recommended for backpackers. Our guide was friendly and made sure we were well looked after throughout the journey.
