About
Theravada Buddhism is the State religion of Sri Lanka practiced by 70.2% of the Sri Lanka's population. The island has been a center of Buddhist scholarship and learning since the introduction of Buddhism in the third century BCE producing eminent scholars such as Buddhaghosa and preserving the vast Pāli Canon. Throughout most of its history, Sri Lankan kings have played a major role in the maintenance and revival of the Buddhist institutions of the island.

- P6689LPjoannep0 contributionsHot air balloon over DambullaSuch a fantastic experience! The pilot was the amazing and the views were stunning. I would highly recommend this trip.Written 19 March 2025
- ceciler8880 contributionsProfessional and friendly serviceThe team was very flexible and arranged the transfer at short notice. Service was very professional and reliable. Highly recommended.Written 17 March 2025
- markandt20250 contributionsScenic Train DelightScenic 4 hour train ride through the hilly area of Sri Lanka, doors left open at the end of the carriages to allow unimpeded views of the countryside, they would have a fit in the UK! We travelled 1st class (air conditioned) the whole train seemed busy so book in advance.Written 16 March 2025
- larinag20220 contributionsGreat tour!Really good tour. The guide/driver was really nice and experienced. We saw pretty much every animal you can see there (exept leopards, they are hard to spot) Thank you!Written 13 March 2025
- Kevin R0 contributionsGreat car transfer between Kandy and Anuradhapura.I have mostly used the train traveling around Sri Lanka but the trip between Kandy and Anuradhapura (with connection) would have used up a valuable day. Lakpura arranged a driver who made the trip in 3 hrs (very safe driving) with hotel to hotel pick up and drop off. Cost-efficient and professional. Lakpura provides the driver ID so you know you’re getting in the right car. I highly recommend Lakpura for your Sri Lanka travel needs.Written 13 March 2025
- Yvonne R0 contributionsA wonderful afternoonWe had a wonderful safari seeing many many beautiful birds as well as elephants, crocodiles, water buffalo, deer and wild pigs. Our driver Darmasiri was very friendly and knowledgeable and did a great job to make sure our trip was great. He arrived on time and ensured we saw the sunset over the lake too. One of our best times in Sri LankaWritten 12 March 2025
- lunastar80 contributionsAn amazing experienceAn amazing experience. Justin is a very experienced pilot with a fabulous team. I felt completely safe and the views were stunning. Picked up on time and there were even welcome drinks when we landed. 10/10Written 12 March 2025
- C4027TCdavidk0 contributionsBest trainride everThe trainride is definitely worth it and a must-do if you visit Sri Lanka. We had reserved 2nd class tickets. The doors were opened regularly to make instragrammable pictures.Written 12 March 2025
- adsheaff0 contributionsRecommend!Highly recommend booking this transportation option. It was a seamless experience with a kind, safe, and efficient driver!Written 12 March 2025
- kawhis0 contributionsPerfect servicePerfect service, the driver was already at the airport and he help me to find the transfer for the next day with the same company, also Hansika was really kind and helpful so I think if you want to go in Sri Lanka you can ask help at Lakpura.Written 11 March 2025
- Austin M0 contributionsSolid driving serviceGreat service. The assigned driver was on time (even a bit early), and made my transit back to the airport easy and seamless.Written 11 March 2025
- C4027TCdavidk0 contributionsRelaxed TransferThe organisation and the transfer itself went really smooth. Our driver picked us up at the airport in time. On arrival he gave US enough am SIM Card and to withdraw money at the ATM. During the drive, he stopped for example as we asked for buying water.Written 10 March 2025
- LeslieHappy0 contributionsFun, fun, fun!Kani drove us to the park and he was fabulous. Janaka was our safari driver and he was excellent. Janaka could spot wildlife, especially birds, which enhanced our experience. The elephants were fun to watch. They are much smaller than African elephants, so we got really close to them. Lots of fun! Be ready for a bumpy ride.Written 8 March 2025
- petergY9057JV0 contributionsBuyer be Aware - a confirmed booking does not mean you will get your train ticketsWe booked this trip for 2 pax in reserved seating in second class prior to our trip to Sri Lanka. Despite the booking being paid for and confirmed, a number of weeks later they asked for additional information to purchase the tickets. When this was further explored, despite confirming the booking they did not have tickets and then were not able to get them stating the train trip is popular. They then tried to sell tickets to a later train for the same price.Written 8 March 2025
- Jan21030 contributionsExcellent serviceExcellent service. Driver was on time he was very polite and the car was clean and tidy. Highly recommend using this transfer companyWritten 8 March 2025
