Birthday tour - From the moment we were picked up by our tour guide Himantha for an early start and long drive to Sigiriya rock we were greeted with a smile giving us confidence that our trip was going to be safe and enjoyable considering the 6 hours+ on the roads.
We had amazing views on the rock and a long slow climb to the top, well worth the effort with to take some photos that we can look back on in years to come.
Our personal favourite was the local village tour, treated to a ride on a cart by a cow and taking the reins while being videoed by our local guide, a swamp trip followed with some interesting accessories, a neckless and hat made out of the water Lilly we then had an amazing local lunch and shown how to prepare the ingredients, it was so tasty, a great experience, I almost forgot my hat was on my head.
We finished with the Dembulla cave temple, an amazing cave with huge Buddha statues and too many to count, there were many steps to encounter but the views were stunning and the Murals inside the cave along with the Buddha’s were impressive in this ancient sacred temple.
The drive home was safe and Himantha was caring and considerate to our needs, we had some nice personal conversations and honestly speaking we had several tours with guides but Himantha raised the bar and was outstanding from start to finish, I only hope other couples and families are as fortunate as us to have the experience we had.
WHAT A GREAT TRIP…..HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Impressive day trip - It was an incredibly impressive and informative excursion. A great combination of temple complex, the Rock the UNESCO heritage and the wildlife park with elephants. If you want to experience a lot in one day I can only recommend this trip. The guide spoke very easy to understand English and also gave us a lot of information about the country Sri Lanka, among others. Thanks for the great day!!!

Fabulous experience - Brilliant experience and well worth it, but beware that there are hundreds of stairs to climb, both at Danbulla and especially at Sigriya. Our driver Sageeth was a star and took really good care of us. Village visit was a standout experience. A long, but great day out

Amazing experience, best sigiriya tour - The whole tour was fantastic. The village part of the tour included a small cooking lesson where I learned how to make sambal. Sigiriya rock was breathtaking. If you can go during the beginning of the week it’s worth it because it’s not crowded.

Fantastic trip to Sigiriya and Dambulla! - We had a great tour with Pushpaka.
Mr.Pushpaka is a kind, polite and also an excellent photographer. Also, he is a very informative tour operator.
We started our tour from Dambala caves and after had a delicious lunch and tasted delicious local foods in an excellent Sigiriya village hotel. After, we visited the Dambulla rock cave with a relaxing view.
Overall, a great experience with a fantastic nature view at the top. Thanks for your excellent service, Pushpaka.
