We met our guide outside of Kingsbury Hotel. We were delayed, he at time. We like! We drove in a comfortable car through town and we got a slightly idea of the size of the town and how crowdy the town is. We also pass the impressing new parliament building placed in a lake. On our way to Galle we asked about Sri Lanka and how it is to live here, about education and health systems and Samir had good answers on all our questions. We learned a lot and want to visit your beautiful country again. We were taken for a boat ride on a lake with mangrove trees, boards and animals, a temple and fish spa, all of this are new experiments. The boat guide was awesome and spotted animals from long distance. We had tasty and good local lunch at Rampart Hotel. Caused by heavy rain we chosed to skip the rest of the program for our tour. Samir was creative and replaced it with a visit the Marine Museum in Galle and a walk on the fortress wall. Samir is a service minded, polite and skilled guide, he made our tour fun and learning. We will choose to engage him for another tour if we come back sometime. And we will recommend him for sure. Regards Annbjørg Sommersæter and Svein Gihle Karlsen Actually date was december 2018

Traveling in Sri Lanka with me and my family is one of the best experiences of my life. We chose Titan Tours Lanka for that trip. We chose it because a friend of mine recommended it. We got to experience their excellent service for 6 days. Lakmal spent those few days with us. Those few days he was a member of our family. He is a brilliant tour guide who can be recommended to any traveler in this world. He managed his time very well and helped us to experience the beauty of Sri Lanka. From all my experience, Titan Tours SL is one of the best travel agencies in Sri Lanka.

The park offers everything that is needed for an exciting safari. Great landscapes, many animals, especially elephants! We were very close to the elephants and were very lucky to be able to watch a whole herd and also some baby elephants. Furthermore, I would like to emphasize our tour guide - not only did he inspire and excite us with his very good mood, he also saw many small animals with his trained eye and answered our questions thoroughly. The 3 hours passed by in no time and gave us many nice memories. Would totally recommend booking a trip with these guys :-)

Ashiq Aswar is a superb tour guide! Him and Rizni took my family around on a tour of Colombo that included shopping and then a tour of the outskirts of a bee farm, spice gardens a private tour visiting and riding elephants. We had a great lunch in a clean and air-conditioned restaurant. The van was clean and comfortable. They picked us up and dropped us back. This trip was actually in the early part of last year in spring, but the calendar on Trip Advisor only goes back to summer of last year. They were very attentive, very caring and personable. I would highly recommend Ashiq and Kingfisher tours to anyone visiting Colombo, Sri Lanka ????????
