Super Trip - We had to consider for the time being whether our trip even takes place because we had no contact until a day before, then took care of the contact ourselves. Then it was a really great tour we were picked up at a cafe and had enough time everywhere to see everything we wanted to see. Our guide Krish, who filled in for his brother at short notice, was super friendly and knew a lot of new information for us about all the sights. We weren’t talked up and Krish knew the prices for the tickets as well.
Was a great day😊

You won't regret booking with Chandu! - We originally booked Chandu to take us to Dambulla caves and sigriya rock. Along with that we visited a herb garden and went out to a local place for breakfast and lunch. Chandus car was clean, spacious and comfortable. We enjoyed our trip so much that we booked him again for the following day to take us to our next destination where he took us to a tea plantation, waterfalls and for lunch.
We had the best 2 days in Sri Lanka with Chandu and we will remember our time with him well! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Chandu to other travellers. Great company, great price and great quality around.
Chandu you're a joy to be around!

Perfect experience - This was an awesome experience. We’ve booked the tour from Kandy to Sigiriya at 4pm and departed at 8:30. The driver bought us coconuts on the road (and they were way more better then we’ve got in the Kandy Market). Driving was calm and smooth. Before the Sigiriya we were gifted with a cold water, and only later we understood how important it was 😂
It was a pleasure and I wish everyone to try!

2 days full of enjoyments - Chandu is very experienced guide with lots of tips. We were in Sighiria, spice garden, tea plantages and Village tour, which we really enjoyed. He was also helpfull and empathic and went us to his familly and her mother provided us really good traditional food. Thank you so much and hope to see you again in the future!

Friendly and trustworthy - Enjoyed our holiday mainly because we didn't have to worry about safety or valuable items, and getting to places were made easy and comfortable by Chandhu.

Thanks for a great trip - Driver was wonderful! He drove me from Kandy to sigiriya, and afterwards set me up with any transportation I needed getting around the rest of my trip all over Sri Lanka! As a solo girl traveler, it was nice to have him making sure I was getting around safely!
