    It was a well-organized tour, where I was able to see and experience a lot. Unfortunately, after the relatively brief visit to a sea turtle hatchery and the equally brief tour of Galle Fort, nothing else was planned for the last two days, and swimming was out of the question due to rain. Some planning should have been done for these two days, or the route should have been changed. I always felt in good hands with my guide and driver, Janaka. He always got us safely through the often very chaotic traffic, and I highly recommend a tour with him.

    We had an absolutely amazing time on this tour with our guide, Chandima! From the moment we met him, we felt completely safe and at ease — which was especially important for us as two young females travelling around Sri Lanka. Chandima quickly felt more like a friend than just a tour guide. He was warm, friendly, and always up for a laugh, which made our trip even more enjoyable. We truly appreciated how he tailored the itinerary to suit our interests — including unique requests like taking us to the gym early in the mornings. Nothing was ever too much trouble for him. His car was always spotless, comfortable, and stocked with daily water bottles and free Wi-Fi, which was such a thoughtful touch. He was incredibly punctual, even on the early mornings when we headed out to catch the sunrise. Some of our favourite highlights were the unforgettable elephant safari, the scenic climbs up Pidurangala and Sigiriya, and the magical moment we spotted blue whales while out on the water. Thanks to Chandima, this trip was more than just sightseeing — it was filled with laughter, comfort, and memorable experiences. We can’t recommend him enough!

    Easy communication before the trip, very helpful and supportive and open for adjustment/changes in the itinerary. In one or two aspects, a very specific visit request was promised, but then unfortunately not realised. Either it was a promise to do you a favour or, which is also possible, the wish was not communicated to the driver. Tip, it is better to say that something is not possible than to make empty promises. A few of the places we visited were very touristy or designed to make money. More detailed information regarding duration (trip, but also visits) as an orientation would be helpful. Our driver was fantastic, very nice, helpful, very good and save driver, and a good person (we experienced in the past driver who want to stop at certain points, i.e. shops, handicraft workshop where they receive commission. In our case we where were very lucky with the driver.

    This tour was a great experience with the exception of the indigenous village which was vey disappointing. Our driver and guide nalin dissanayake tailored the trip to ensure we had the best experience. His local knowledge and incredible ability to quote historical facts was a true bonus along with his sense of humour.

    I had an exceptional experience on my recent tour with Tour Guide Sujeewa. Sujeewa's in-depth knowledge of Sri Lanka's history, culture, and hidden gems took the experience to a whole new level. Sujeewa deftly navigated us through the country's diverse landscapes and attractions, from bustling markets to serene temples, ensuring that every moment was enriching and unforgettable. The tour was executed flawlessly, with impeccable attention to detail and a genuine commitment to customer satisfaction. Thanks to Sujeewa's expertise and warmth, my journey with them was nothing short of extraordinary. I highly recommend Sujeewa and this tour for an unforgettable exploration of Sri Lanka.

    Our journey through Sri Lanka with Capital Lanka Tours and guide Sampath was truly unforgettable. Sampath's warm hospitality and extensive knowledge of the country's history and culture added depth and richness to our experience. From exploring UNESCO World Heritage sites to immersing ourselves in the vibrant local markets, Sampath expertly guided us through the highlights of Sri Lanka. We were particularly impressed by the personalized attention and flexibility provided by Sampath and the Capital Lanka Tours team. If you're looking for a memorable and immersive travel experience, I highly recommend booking with Capital Lanka Tours and requesting Sampath as your guide.

    Asked on February 1st, 2025

    we are not sure at this stage of an exact date but it will be June or July which I believe are good months to visit for good weather. I particularly want to see wildlife so the jeep safari on turtle hatchery look great. Neither my daughter nor i are beach people so if there is an option to do a tour on day 9 we may do that.
