Overall, this trip was a great experience. Chanaka was my guide and driver, and I especially appreciated the high level of customization available. For example, I was able to remove some items from the itinerary and add others, such as a historical site tour. Guests can also communicate their personal preferences and abilities to Janani beforehand. Chanaka arranged the itinerary very efficiently, and the private car was clean, comfortable, and punctual. Janani was also very helpful and friendly in assisting with the arrangements and planning before the trip, including hotel accommodations and breakfast/dinner arrangements. Throughout the trip, I felt very relaxed and was able to enjoy a slow-paced and in-depth exploration of this vibrant country, from temples and ruins to mountains, lakes, and animal conservation parks. The entire trip gave me a deeper understanding of the country. Everything went smoothly, from the hotel pick-up on the first day to the car return on the last day. Thanks again to my guide Chanaka for his leadership and care along the way.

Great 4.0
Nice guide and enjoyable tour. Highly recommended. The price for the boat tour is misleading. Klook mentions $35/person or $20/person for group of 2 or more. The $20 is actually a local or Indian tourist price.

It was a memorable experience for me. My guide at Sigiriya Lion Rock - ASHAN is very good in taking photos and really knowledgable with the site. My driver and guide for Dumbulla - SHAN is very accommodating and funny. I really recommend this tour package for those planning to visit UNESCO sites here in SL. Kudos!

I chose a five-day tour this time, and I really want to express my sincere thanks to my guide, Udara. He is a thoughtful and gentlemanly person with excellent English. Whenever I wanted to change the plan or visit other places, he was always willing to coordinate and made everything go smoothly. He paid great attention to the road conditions, carefully driving over bumps to ensure a comfortable ride. He also checked on me from time to time to make sure I was enjoying myself and feeling relaxed. The whole trip was well arranged and seamless. During these five days, I truly felt safe, relaxed, and happy. The weather was wonderful, the people were kind, and the scenery was beautiful—everything made this journey especially memorable. Thank you, Udara. Thank you, my friend.

I had a wonderful weekend with Mr. Hasi, my tour guide, he take care of everything. The Sigiriya Lion Rock's guide, im not sure if they have long term coorporation, he took very beautiful picture for me where i have never seen any other ppl post the same angle/positon picture. Mr. Hasi able to adjust the itinerary according to the situation or timing which suit me.
