“Our tour was excellent from start to end. Our tour guide Sathis was punctual picking us up from the hotel and was very courteous and informative during the tour. Tea plantation tours (two of them) were really good. One produced tea manually and the other was a bit more automated separating the leaves. We also met the owner of the tour (Krishna) at one of the plantations who introduced himself. Nice chap 👍 Sathis stopped at many viewing points to take photos and we climbed up (approx 700 steps) to the Rambodde Waterfall. Great experience. All in all a great day 5* 😀”

“Really fantastic tour of Colombo city, we had 5 hours of sightseeing with Starlin who was so knowledgeable and couldn't do enough to please. Visited places we would never have known about and learned a lot about the history and culture of Sri Lanka. We are both in our 60s so felt very safe with Starlin, his driving was excellent and his tuk tuk was spotlessly clean. Oh, and he is a wonderful photographer, he took lots of photos for us and even gave us tips on how to use our phone cameras! Would recommend him 100%”
