I came to Sri Lanka for the second time to travel with friends across the country. We chose to travel with our pilot captain and bus driver dammy guided by Chathura who cares about his guests, has an incredible knowledge about nature, wildlife and culture and always gives his best to make the stay a special one for everybody. Since we have already seen the hotspots and tourist places the first time we came, we chose to see other places this time. We started in Negombo across the country up to Trincomalee along the coast towards Udawalawe national park, sinharaja forest, diyaluma waterfalls and finally we went to Adam's peak to fulfill a dream to climb the pilgrims' way during the season. Even though the weather conditions were not always the best Chathura always found another solution to spend the day other then the program we planned. I know I will come back because there is so much more to see and time to spend with a driver and guide who became friends. We laughed, we danced, we loved the time we spend...

Our tour started with the pick up from our hotel at Galle fort. Roshan was so friendly and extremely informative. Had a wonderful day with new friends, enjoying the scenery and hiking the Rainforest. This should be in everyone's list when visiting Sri Lanka. Loved the added bonus of Tea factory visit. Guide Wigitha made the day amazing. Although no rain in the rainforest ,this day made the hike a bit less slippery, the flora, fauna and the waterfall -- all made a lovely day. One of our Dreams was to swim under the waterfall, and we got a chance to do it here. Transportation was comfortable and efficient, and the lunch was delicious. Would highly recommend this tour and also this tour company.

We chose Sri Lanka to spend our vacation and it was indeed a good choice thanks to Lashan. He was very friendly and took us to all the places we wanted to travel. Actually he has a really good knowledge of beautiful places in Sri Lanka. We were able to communicate with him well too. The vehicle was really comfortable and had enough spaces for us and our luggages. I highly recommend their service to anyone and thank you Lashan for the amazing trip.

In October 2019 we spent ten days in Sri Lanka with Danu, one of supuns drivers. We had some very special days and also many insights into the Sri Lankan culture. It was very easy to plan the trip together with supun. We just wrote a mail to supun and got a proposal with many different possibilities to do during our trip through Sri Lanka. Also they were very flexible with the tour planning, both in advance and during the trip. With Danu we had the chance to visit many local places, not only the tourist ones. This was very nice! We always had best dinner/lunch places (local ones). As we were very flexible on the tour, we could stay longer or shorter on the different sights. Price-Performance Ratio is very fair, i would always recommend Supun and Danu to all my friends. Over all: We had a very nice trip in Sri Lanka. We met very nice people and it was a very familiar time together with Danu. Thank you for the nice time Maya&Hannes

Galle, 119km from Colombo, is a major city situated at the tip of the South Western coast of Sri Lanka. Being a coastal area, it is quite hot and humid but has an abundance of beautiful beaches in every town that you pass while travelling from Colombo to Galle. The Galle Fort was built by the Portuguese, fortified later by the Dutch and is well preserved till today. In addition to the Portuguese and Dutch remains, you will also find many British mansions left behind. As for beaches, the Unawatuna Bay probably tops it all and is safe for snorkelling and swimming because a reef protects it. There you have it, a day tour of the city of Galle in a nutshell.

Inclusions: Air Conditioned Private Vehicle, English Speaking Chauffeur, All Costs related to Vehicle, Boat and Chauffeur, Entrance Tickets for All mentioned Excursions, Bottled Drinking Water, All Government Taxes | No Hidden Cost

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 :-)
