Overall rating

(20 reviews)

We can only warmly recommend Krishna! Our 2.5 days in Nuwara Eliya were unforgettable thanks to him. After we got to know him through a tuk-tuk ride, we spent the entire time with him. Krishna grew up in Nuwara Eliya and knows his way around very well. He is an incredibly warm and attentive person, drives safely and carefully and speaks excellent English. On our second day, he took us to two tea factories, where we received exciting tours. Another experience was the 700m hike to the Ramboda waterfall, where we enjoyed the great view. Along the way, Krishna stopped at beautiful viewpoints and shared many interesting facts about Nuwara Eliya and Sri Lanka. We visited the post office, Gregory Lake and Victoria Park, and over a delicious lunch in a local restaurant that we would never have discovered without Krishna, we learned a lot about life in Sri Lanka. Thank you for the wonderful day! <3

This was a very nice trip, planned precisely with top quality accommodations. The car was good and Mr Gihan was more like a tour guide to us helping us whenever we faced any issues and following us to all the sight seeing places. Mr Malinga was flexible enough to accommodate all the changes we requested. Overall we had a very nice experience.

We had the best day with Tony, our guide. He truly did everything to make this experience very special. All stopovers were really great spots and hidden gems. Tony's knowledge is impressive and we felt completely safe in his hands. He is also a very good driver and took amazing photos of us. 100% recommended!

Recommended. Picked up on time, good schedule: Dambro, Ramboda waterfall, Blue Field. It took about 6 hours in total.

We had a lovely day trip and our driver was so lovely and friendly.
