Colombo

I'm satisfied that I was finally able to visit Sigiriya Rock, which I had always wanted to see. However, the entrance fee listed beforehand must have been an old price, as it was very expensive; the safari jeep and admission alone cost over 14,000 yen. Also, we ended up stopping at a herb garden that wasn't mentioned in the itinerary. The guide was kind and explained in advance about the ticket prices and that we were free to buy or not buy anything, but it seems that a portion of the herb garden's sales goes to the guide. Although the guide was a very good person, I assume this was the itinerary set by the tour company. I wish the prices had been updated. Since I also made purchases at the herb garden, I ended up spending about three times more than I had anticipated.

I had an amazing experience with this private tuk-tuk tour in Colombo! My transport from Kalutara was delayed, so I arrived about 30 minutes late, and my drop-off location also changed unexpectedly. But my guide was incredibly kind and flexible, even coming to pick me up at the new location. Despite the limited time, he took me to many places, including historical landmarks, Lotus Tower, a Ceylon tea shop, and some beautiful hidden gems. He also shared fascinating insights about Sri Lanka’s history, culture, and current situation, which made the tour much more meaningful. After the tour, he even helped me find an affordable direct bus to the airport. He took me to another terminal when the first one was full and made sure I could get to the airport on time for my 11 PM flight. Highly recommended! He was knowledgeable, helpful, flexible, and genuinely cared about making my experience in Colombo memorable. Definitely one of the best decisions I made in Sri Lanka!

We went to Yala National park today with Srizara. We had Lucky come with us as a naturalist and guide for the day. We had a great experience and were able to see all the animals on our list including the leopard with the opportunity to take great photos. We couldn’t have hoped for a better day thank you 🙂.

For my trip to Sri Lanka this time, I chose a 7-day luxury tour, handled by Ceylon Paradise Tours. The entire journey was wonderful! We visited many different places, and the hotels, transportation, and overall arrangements were excellent. The accommodations were very comfortable, and visiting the attractions went smoothly. Overall, I'm very satisfied. I especially want to thank my driver, Wasantha. He was incredibly amazing—very attentive, patient, and explained everything so well throughout the trip. He made sure to show me all the worthwhile sights, and basically fulfilled all my wishes for where to go and what to do. I hope he gets more tours! He's truly fantastic!!! Finally, I want to thank Ceylon Paradise Tours and driver Wasantha. This trip to Sri Lanka created so many golden memories. If I have the chance to visit Sri Lanka again, I'll definitely reach out to them for help. Highly recommend visiting Sigiriya and going on a safari! 🐆🐅🐘

I wanted to tour efficiently, so I booked a package. I had requested to stay at the Heritance Kandalama Hotel, known as Bawa's masterpiece, and the tour company changed the plan to arrange my stay there. They even went the extra mile and requested a room with a view of Sigiriya Rock from the hotel, and indeed, the room was perfect—I could see Sigiriya Rock right from my bed. The rest of the tour itinerary was also flexible; we could discuss it with the guide the day before, considering our energy levels. Our guide, Osha, was also excellent. It was a very fulfilling five days, and since it was a private tour, we were able to enjoy it comfortably. Tour Guide: Thank you, Osha! 😊

I loved this tour! It was private, flexible, and very relaxing. Sachi, my tour guide, was always kind and attentive, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the trip. I visited so many places and had so many great experiences in just two days. Thank you.

This tour is worth the price, the tour guide is very friendly and helpful, definitely will booked him and this tour again for next time visit to Sri Lanka. Having wonderful time at here. 😇

Sadeep, the local operator, who is also the snorkeling guide and expert was very thorough with everything. First, he suggested that we have to move our booking from 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM for better weather conditions of the trip, and glad we did! Secondly, he picked us up earlier 8:50 AM which was very nice. Thirdly, upon arriving at the area where we gonna do the activity, he explained everything: from the dos and donts, our snorkeling experiences, etc. Fourth, we saw a total of 3 turtles and it was a great experience! Lastly, Sadeep offered a king coconut as refreshments after the activity. It was fun, well guided trip and very affordable.

Oshan and Imeth are professional guides. They are punctual for meetups. Since Sri Lanka’s weather can be unpredictable, the guides also monitor cloud forecasts to anticipate the weather and arrange the best itinerary for us, ensuring we don’t miss any attractions. They are also excellent photographers, capturing many priceless photos for us. Highly recommended.
