Beautiful Place - Overall, it was a great experience in a beautiful place full of culture. The sights and atmosphere were truly memorable. The driver assigned to us was friendly and responded to our requests, which we appreciated. However, he seemed a bit rushed and drove quite fast, which made parts of the trip feel less relaxed. He also came across as slightly lazy at times. Still, the destination itself made up for it, and I’d recommend the experience.

Memorable Polonnaruwa - Polonnaruwa was so much fun, especially because we explored by bike. Even the drive there was adventurous, seeing wild elephants and peacocks. A special thank you to Sangit, our driver, who was accommodating, polite, and wanted to make our trip as memorable as possible by stopping us on the way for photo opportunities.

Fantastic trip to see the ruins. - First class visit to Polonnaruwa. Driver on time for an early pickup. Safe driver and lovely comfortable car. Arrived at the museum to buy tickets and wander. Then driven to all the important stops and shown what to see. We didn’t choose to have a guide but it could easily be arranged. We had exactly the time we wanted at each stop and it was perfect. Communication with company was spot on all the time too so it was really easy to organise. Would highly recommend this company.
