- Jacqueline· May 28th, 2025My trip to Sri Lanka was absolutely amazing! There was an endless array of sights and activities to dive into. My tour guide and driver was incredibly patient and understanding, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. I had the time of my life and can’t recommend this tour enough! The hotels were fantastic—no complaints at all! Just a heads up: if you prefer a warm room, don’t forget to pack some bug spray. Trust me, you won’t want to miss out on this adventure!Show more
- Gus· April 8th, 2025We had a great 4-night private tour in Sri Lanka with Keerthe as our guide, and he truly made the trip unforgettable. From the moment he picked us up in Colombo, his warm, professional demeanor and deep knowledge of the country set the tone for an amazing adventure. Keerthe expertly navigated us through a packed itinerary, starting with a Colombo city tour featuring Gangaramaya Buddhist Temple and Independence Square, before heading south to Galle. Along the way, he introduced us to unique experiences like the turtle hatchery and the Madu River cruise, complete with a cinnamon-making demo and a ticklish fish foot massage. His thoughtful planning ensured we hit highlights like Galle Fort, whale watching in Mirissa (where we spotted dolphins and a breaching whale), and the scenic 9 Arches Bridge in Ella. He was a steady presence on the winding roads to Ella, Nuwara Eliya, and Kandy, sharing insights about tea plantations, British-era architecture, and local culture. Keerthe’s flexibility shone through when he arranged a train ride over the 9 Arches Bridge, coordinated a tuk-tuk trip to Ambuluwawa Tower, and guided us through the Sacred Tooth Relic Temple in Kandy. His passion for Sri Lanka’s history was evident at Sigiriya Rock, where he explained the ancient palace ruins, and at Dambulla Cave Temple. Beyond his knowledge, Keerthe was patient, accommodating, and attentive—whether arranging an early-morning safari to see elephant herds or ensuring we had time to rest after long drives. The village tour, with its ox cart ride and home-cooked lunch, was a personal favourite. Over 550km and 15 hours of driving, he kept us safe and comfortable. One small suggestion: it would have been helpful to have more clarity upfront about the cost to enter each attraction and whether cash or cards were needed, as this varied from the original tour guidance and caught us off guard a few times. Keerthe made our trip a perfect blend of adventure, education, and relaxation. We’d recommend him to anyone visiting Sri Lanka—thank you, Keerthe, for an exceptional experience!Show more

Traveler•Written March 2024the price for December was 501 Euros. But, when I went on for booking I had seen that this was the price for a 3 bed room. Since we are a couple we would need a double room and this would cost 634 Euros where I was dissapointed, because I planed with the 501 Euro price.
