Lovely day out. My driver, Adhil, was great. I was keen to leave earlier than the scheduled 8am start (to beat the traffic), and to go to Sigirya first (so we weren’t walking up during the hot part of the day). This was no problem for Adhil, and he was promptly waiting outside my Guest House at 7am. His historic information about the sites also saved me the cost of hiring a guide.

It’s a great experience. The ambiance is very welcoming and charming. Amazing food and service. Staff are extremely polite and friendly and I just want to say that, in addition to awesome food, we had a delightful waiter, “Dhanushka”.
