    Private tour fully delivered all my hopes for it. Plenty of great sites included. Fantastic accommodation at every stop and food couldn’t be faulted everywhere we went. My driver/guide, Supun Jayathissa, spoke excellent English, answered every question, and used his ‘insider’ knowledge to enhance the experience even more. He was also endlessly patient as I took time to get that perfect photo. Perfect all round.
