Wonderful Day Tour with an Amazing Driver - We had an excellent experience on the Kandy to Sigiriya and Dambulla day tour. Our driver, Fazeel, was extremely friendly, punctual, and knowledgeable. He shared fascinating facts about Sri Lanka and made the journey very enjoyable. The tour included highlights like Sigiriya Rock Fortress, Dambulla Cave Temple, and Ranweli Spice Garden. Fazeel also took us to a lovely local juice bar and a cozy café for short, refreshing stops – a nice personal touch. The car was clean and comfortable, and we felt very safe throughout. Highly recommended, especially with Fazeel as your driver!

I was impressed with how... - I was impressed with how much we managed to cram into one day! It was so much fun, especially climbing Sigiriya, which is an experience I will never forget. Shout-out to Wicky, he was an enthusiastic vibe, open to any suggestion and kept our spirits high even as we got tired at the end. Ask for him by name!

Thank you,Fazeel - He was very kind to me because I was not good at English. There was air conditioning and it was comfortable to travel long distances. I had a good experience in Sri Lanka for the first time.

Fascinating Trip! - Mr. Fazeel is a very nice and friendly person who arrives on time and take care of the itinerary. The trip is fantastic not in rush at all. Although the Sri Muthumari Amman Kovil was closed for renovation, we still stopped for a visit on our way back at the end of the trip. Overall, this itinerary has high quality, and Mr. Fazeel made the trip much more enjoyable.

Kandy to Sigiriya Day Tour - We recently did this trip as a group of three and had a really good time! There were a good number of stops, evenly spaced out. Climbing Lion rock was a particular highlight! Kavishan was a great driver and guide - he was very knowledgeable, and he even recommended a very good restaurant for lunch. We would highly recommend!

Kandy to Sigiriya Day Tour and Dambulla cave temple with private vehicle - The visit to the temple and rock was very good. I was not satisfied with driver or the condition of the vehicle. The vehicle kept stopping/ halting when the air conditioning was on. Driving could have been safer - the speed and general driving skills could have been better

Poor experience - I don’t know why this trip is rated so highly. Firstly, it’s just a cab service that takes you to certain places. The driver was not friendly and didn’t have any knowledge of the places. He was not a guide at all. Secondly, he couldn’t speak English well and couldn’t even explain basic stuff like where to get tickets, where to come and meet him, etc. Lastly, the trip description didn’t say that you need to carry your passport and even the driver didn’t ask me to carry passport when he came for pick up. As an Indian citizen, I would have got a much discounted rate for Sirigiya
