Incredibly helpful - cannot recommend enough!! - Thilina was amazingly helpful! He not only organised my transport, but also recommended things to do and it what order around Kandy. He organised a whole tour of Lion's Rock, Cave Temple and loads of other incredible things on route at a very resaonable price. Chonna was my driver and he not only helped translate to some of the local vendors and stayed with me during some of the activities but also was an extremely good driver and I felt very safe in his presence. Thilina also organised a taxi down to Ambewela for me again at a very reasonable price and when there was no space on the train he organised for the same driver to take me all the way to Ella which I'm extremely grateful for, he was very quick to answer via WhatsApp. As a solo traveller, I felt very comfortable asking for his help and all the activities and drivers he sent me were really kind and helpful. Big thank you!!!

Brilliant tour of Kandy! - I had a great time! Visited so many sights and had private tours everywhere. Thilina was so kind, allowed me to take my time, and also took me to a local Sri Lankan restaurant for some curry for lunch!

Perfect. - We took taxis with him to move around the island and also did the tour of the city of Kandy. The truth is that I highly recommend it and I hope that if we go back to the country I will take it with him again. Thank you.
