      Was fun, would repeat
      Driver was enthusiastic and friendly. We had the jeep just for ourselves. We didn't see many elephants, but the driver spotted many other different animals, like a bear mama and her cub.

      We saw almost nothing
      Unfortunately it was bad experience. We didn’t see a lot of animals, just a jew deers, monkeys, couple of foxes and eagle what is not a reason to go that far away. Beside that our guides were useless: that didn’t speak english, didn’t explain anything about the nature, didn’t get the water for us, and buy 3 entrance tickets instead of 4. So we just spent 4 hours shaking in the dusty car. My boyfriend were sleeping cause it was boring and nothing to see. We didn’t get any compensation from this guys, only apologies.

      Amazing safari!!!
      We went to Wilpattu National Park for a safari and had an amazing experience! We met our jeep driver at the gate and were promptly on our way. We were provided with bottled water and king coconuts at the rest stop. We saw so many animals and birds despite taking the afternoon tour. And lucky us!!! We saw two leopards and a bear sloth!! We highly recommend this tour.

      Great safari tour
      Dhanushka was a great driver and gave us many tips for seeing elephants at a good time. He was knowledgeable and enthusiastic and was a pleasure to have him host us on this expedition.

      Highly recommended!
      I booked pick-up from an airport hotel, and despite some concerns about the distance, I found it to be a fairly easy journey—definitely not too far in my opinion. If you're debating whether it's worth the trip, I'd say go for it! Sigiriya rock is stunning, much better than I was expecting My guide, Christo, was fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about the area. He made sure to stop at multiple interesting spots along the way, which really added to the experience. It wasn’t just a straight A-to-B trip; we got to soak in a lot of different sights, which I really appreciated. One thing to keep in mind: if you’re doing the village tour, expect that everyone you meet will anticipate a tip. It’s not a bad thing—just something to be aware of so you have small bills ready. It’s part of the experience, and honestly, many of the people we met were lovely and made the stops feel worthwhile. Overall, a great experience, especially thanks to Christo’s guiding. If you’re looking for a well-paced tour with plenty of interesting stops, this one is definitely worth considering.

      Great day out with non-stop breathtaking views. However, I had to pay for a la carte lunch for me and the driver.
      The highlight was, of course, the train journey (one way only to be clear) with amazing views. The journey back by car was also scenic and took in a number of sites, e.g. waterfalls, tea plantation tour, park and gardens in Nuwara Eliya. The driver was flexible in terms of what I wanted to do/see. One note of caution - the driver suggested lunch and he took me to a restaurant for a sit-down, a la carte meal. He asked for the bill which was presented to me for payment for the both of us. I did not expect this nor had budgeted for it.

      Waterfalls, tea tasting and trains
      We had a great time! There were lots of stops on the way to stretch your legs and see some amazing views. Was well organised and they took extra care to made sure we got the correct train from the station.

      An amazing experience in January 2025, we saw lots of elephants. Very clear communication on pick up and booking. Great value for money and would recommend for anyone. Car was very clean and comfy.

      A Great Tour
      A great tour. The ruins were very interesting, but the highlight was climbing up Yapahuwa Rock Fortress. Our driver Christopher was excellent.
