I'm very happy to have booked tours with this company! They are very welcoming, courteous and highly anticipative of their clients' needs. To my surprise, it was actually a very luxurious solo tour with just me and the driver/guide. Nice comfortable vehicle. The food at the restaurant stops was very delicious with great variety and they were all complete with the necessary amenities. In each food/cafe place, we stopped (most at my request), everyone was very friendly and accommodating. The Guide/driver was very informative and very patient with all my requests. The ride towards the Polonnaruwa was relaxing. The different sites at the Ancient Capital of Polonnaruwa that we explored were magnificent and looked better in real life. I enjoyed every minute of this trip! It was seamless from start to finish. I highly recommend booking this tour. A great many thanks for making my stay in Sri Lanka memorable. :)
I had a great day! the driver was timely and very attentive and careful. I recommend
