- AThomas· May 17th, 2019The walk around kandy was pretty strenuous and a couple of people were rather caught out; it could have been made clearer that this was the case
Explore! commented on this reviewThanks for the feedback, we'll pass this to our product team to reviewTrip date: November 2018 - AAngela· May 17th, 2019The dedication of Chamara Abeywardhane was crucial in making this a very good trip. Explore should discuss with Cham to make modifications so Adams Peak is not cloned on a busy time e.g. Friday, Saturday nights. Credit should also go to the local guides who came on the walks with us on several days. One of them Arinka (Eco team) was brilliant at showing us birdsShow moreExplore! commented on this reviewThanks for your great feedback. we'll review Adams Peak and pass on your kind comments to Cham :)Trip date: January 2019
