try the following code its working package automation ;

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit

enter code here

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class test {
public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
//Object webdriver;
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", 
"C:\\Users\\user\\Downloads\\geckodriver-v0.17.0-win64/geckodriver.exe");

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.manage().window().maximize();
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(25, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
driver.get("https://www.easybooking.lk");   
String i = driver.getCurrentUrl();
System.out.println(i);
//driver.close();

}

}

if its not working http://www.seleniumhq.org/download/ here download java 3.4.0

For Mozila Firefox till version 46.x it was the legacy browser and we didn't need gecko driver. Mozila Firefox from version 47.x onwards comes with Marionette, which is an automation driver for Mozilla's Gecko engine. It can remotely control either the UI or the internal JavaScript of a Gecko platform, such as Firefox. Can be donwloaded here: https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases and needs selenium 3.x.

So, either downgrade FF to version 46.x, or use latest selenium binding with geckodriver + latest FF

Unfortunately Selenium WebDriver 2.51.0 is not compatible with Firefox 47.0. The WebDriver component which handles Firefox browsers (FirefoxDriver) will be discontinued.

Try using firefox 46.0.1. It best matches with Selenium 2.51
