from Travel Writers Radio

Graeme Kemlo invited Alistair to tell his story in a new medium and he delights in talking to us about his recent Sri Lanka trip. Alistair avoided the major cities, preferring to see smaller, less crowded places with a story to tell, such as a fifth-century BC fortress. His favourite experience was an elephant safari. He chose to fly Sri Lankas Airways and enjoyed the ground arrangements and tour options organised by tripadeal.com.au, He reckons it is well worth a visit. Photo by Alistair Smith - Sri Lanka's tuk-tuks proved a great way to get around in the heat.
