A nice day trip to Galle with Raja - Raja was our excellent driver and tour guide. We embarked on a day trip to Galle, nestled in the southern region of Sri Lanka. The water shimmered with an enchanting beauty, and the sights were nothing short of breathtaking. Though the day was long and tiring, it was absolutely worth every moment. Thank you Raja.

Awesome Experience, on an 8 day Sri Lanka Trip - We hired a 10 seater, Micro Tourer van from Bookingmart Holidays, for our 8 days Sri Lanka Trip. We were a group of 7 male friends from New Delhi, India. We were on the ‘Ramayana Trail Trip’ i.e. touring cities like Nuwara Eliya, Ella, etc. The driver Maheeshan was polite and punctual. He was on time at the Colombo AirPort to pick us up. The van condition and it’s AC was quiet good. He kept the van neat and clean, washing it daily after the trip. There was a complimentary Wi-Fi in the van for all of us, whose speed/strength was quiet good, and we were able to use the free WhatsApp calls facility from Sri Lanka to India. Overall we were well satisfied with the services and would strongly recommend their services to others. Thanks

Fantastic day tour! Madu River, Indian ocean, mines, Galle & Sri Lankan culture - The Galle and Bentota Day Tour is so much fun! I was travelling solo and only had 1 day to explore, I felt very safe and taken care of. Mr. Asela showed up on time to my hotel, he is great driver and also fantastic, respectful and kind tourist guide. He took me to so many places and arranged a nice lunch as well. It was a full day filled with many fun visits and things to learn from this beautiful area of Sri Lanka. The tour in the river was fabulous, it is wonderful to visit the communities and learn about their lifestyle. I particularly enjoyed the visit to the moonstone mine and jewels since I love stones! The ocean, the beach and Galle were also very beautiful. Take this tour if you can!

Galle/Bentota Adventure. - The tour guide was friendly and he has an enormous knowledge of Galle and Bentota history. Also a great knowledge of Sri Lanka history. He gave me a better understanding of the Sri Lanka culture. I would highly recommend him. Thank you.
