It was a great birding experience with Bird Trails Sri Lanka. Our Birdguide Thilina and Indunil have immense experience in birding and photography. We had 10 wonderful days in Sri Lanka. Accommodation and food were good. The birding sites that we visited enabled us to take many good photos of birds especially those that are endemic to Sri Lanka. Their experience and ability to located birds are beyond comprehension. Bravo!
Excellent service, lots of cares, attentive to request where possible, greatest good treatment to all members that they have provided. This is my 2nd time with Thini and I still achieved more than 150 birds species, many thanks to them that they tried their very best to hunt for max birds where possible. Strongly recommended!
I recently concluded a 12 day tour with Thilina and it was fantastic. The tour was tailor made (My priorities were endemic, select migrant and some key resident birds plus a few mammals). I left Sri Lanka having seen every endemic bird and a wide range of animals. Thilina knows the parks and knows how to find your targets. And if for any reason he cannot find something on your first pass, he will have a plan B and even a plan C. On top of all of that, we had plenty of fun. I would recommend him to anyone planning a bird or wildlife trip to Sri Lanka.
Thili is one of the best bird guides I have met. He has fantastic knowledge of where to see all of Sri Lanka's key species. In a weeks tour we saw and photographed all the endemic birds and saw a great many more other species. Thili works really hard to make sure everyone sees the birds and is also great company. I recommend him to anyone visiting Sri Lanka with an interest in birds and wildlife.
Bird Trails Sri Lanka, is a recently established company, fronted by Thilina Karunanayaka, of 'Walk with Jith' wildlife safaris. Thilina is not only a very dedicated and experienced wildlife guide, but he is also an amazing photographer. (View a small example of his work on this page) If you are passionate about wildlife, and are planning a trip to Sri Lanka, look no further then here.
It was a fantastic tour with our guide Thili! We saw all of endemic birds and some of amazing reptiles. If given the chance, we'll definitely have Thili lead us on more adventurous trips around Sri Lanka in the future. In short, I highly recommend it.
