About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Q6741PLmichaels0 contributionsFun times in a tuk tukAruna took me on a fun trip around town that went some way out to visit a bunch of interesting sights, temples, gardens, tea factory. I'd never have gotten out there to see these places if i'd done it under my own steam, so thanks Aruna, that was a nice day.Written 1 December 2024
- 354malinis0 contributionsNostalgic trip to Kandy!We very much enjoyed our day with Aruna. He was very kind and attentive particularly to my elderly mother, listening to her stories and wishes for her trip and then went out of his way to create a tailored day for us. Thank you very much!Written 24 November 2024
- 856sylwiap0 contributionsExperience tailored for our needsThanks to Aruna's assistance the trip was unforgettable experience. We've exchanged a lot of messages and were able to have a more individual approach and trip really tailored to our needs. If you are looking for this type of experience, trip with Aruna is a very good choice. We did not have much time but managed to fill in a lot of very rewarding activities :) see the photos!Written 14 November 2024
- hookinglau0 contributionsA great day tour of KandyAruna was very friendly and helpful during our tour of Kandy. He did his best to give us the best possible experiences and tailor the tour to our interests. We had a fantastic day out in and around Kandy!Written 29 September 2024
- CronkLauren0 contributionsBest tour guide.We booked Aruna to drive us from kandy to trinco. He was so knowledgeable of the local area that we booked him again to drive us from trinco to habanara and then on to kandy. He booked a safari tour and helped us to visit sigyrya and the local village areas. Aruna was kind, thoughtful and super courteous for the 6 days we were with him. I would highly recommend booking him and will recommend his services to anyone visiting Sri Lanka.Written 16 September 2024
- --NS---SYD0 contributionsAruna Sri Lanka multi day Tour - Highly Recommend!Wow! our last tour with Aruna was as incredible as the previous. Details of our customised itinerary can be found below. However, our heartfelt recommendation first: Aruna is an amazing, dependable, safe, driver whose enthusiasm to show people his country is genuine and backed by knowing its every corner. He is so energetic and will have you exploring from morning to night, actively climbing each mountain and rock with you and taking you where no other tourists go. He is slso very flexible and will adapt his offering to your needs and wants. We recommend booking Aruna to all who want to see more than the beaten track, in their own pace, at a very reasonable price, and with peace of mind which is not always easy to get in Sri Lanka. Peace of mind is especially worth noting as in our travels in Sri Lanka we experienced, (all from reputable firms): a few dangerous drivers, a driver who wouldn't go 3 KM outside of the pre-booked 170km route to add a single temple visit upon request, and the worst... a driver who just didn't show up. (guess who I called in my panic when said driver did not show up and who dropped everything to save the day?). True to form, Aruna tailored the 4 day tour specifically for our wants, and physical ability. Our itinerary: Day 1: * From Negombo to climb Yapahuwa Rock Fortress. So much history, archaeological and natural beauty. Plus - no other foreigners but ourselves * Drive to Dambulla * After lunch we visited the beautiful Dambulla cave temple * If it were up to Aruna, we would be climbing Pidurangala Rock in time for sunset, but our muscles said no more for today! * We settled for watching the sunset over Sigiriya from the hotel roof terrace, while Aruna got busy in the hotel restaurant and cooked an excellent meal for us in there, which we enjoyed on the terrace (the hotel is run by his friends) Day 2: * Sigirya early morning * the amazing Polononnaruwa Note- Many visit Polononnaruwa cycling, but we went in the airconditioned car and not only saved time and energy, but got to explore further-afield amazing areas that cyclists wouldn't likely reach. * Drive to Trincomalee, which we still managed to site-see in the afternoon, go for a swim and have dinner on the beach. Day 3: * Girihandu Seya. An amazing ancient and spiritual temple, with Sri Lana's oldest stupa, where again we were the only foreigners about * Arisimalai beach and nearby fishermen village * Drive to Anuradhapura * Aruna was looking forward to climbing up Mihintale in the afternoon. Again, it was us who admitted we are not up to it. Day 4: our last day in Sri Lanka. * Anuradhapura sites in the morning. Again, we drove rather than cycle * a spot of rest before the long drive * Drive back to the International airport (4 hours drive In quite poor conditions). On day 4 alone, Aruna started at 7am, and was not off the clock until well past 9pm.Written 18 August 2024
- 150eviv0 contributionsNice driverNice driver! We met him in Kandy, a few days later he drove us to Nuwara Eliya. We stopped at the Ambuluwawa Tower. After an hour we went to Nuwara Eliya.Written 4 August 2024
- Noa P0 contributionsPerfectVery nice, enthousiast, helpful and joiable driver. Driving in car, as well as in a tuktuk. We drove from Kandy to Nuwara Eliya (long and difficult road because of the small, steep and bad roads. Driver did a great job in this.Written 4 August 2024
- --NS---SYD0 contributionsKandy tour with Aruna.Aruna was a fun, informative and extremely reliable tour guide. He took us to the best places for views, experiences, and food. When we needed a driver in a split second at 7am to drive us to Ella, Aruna immediately agreed and safely drove us there, while stopping at the best sight seeing spots. We would highly recommend Aruna for all your tour needs.Written 2 August 2024
- K1121PGstevenc0 contributionsWould highly recommendGreat day journeys with Aruna, told us lots about Kandy and beyond. Took us to lots of different places some were added on at last minute, very flexible. Knowledge of area was excellent and we found out more than we could have imagined. Arranged a culture dance show for us which was fantastic. We loved our time with Aruna around Kandy, would highly recommend.Written 2 August 2024
- X8264OUjessicah0 contributionsKandy by Tuk Tuk - great tourGreat tuk tuk tour of Kandy. Tailored to our interests. Well timed, interesting places & great driving, tea plant, royal forest, botantic garden - even included local market. Thankyou!!Written 19 July 2024
- 269elnaraa0 contributionsGreat day tourI had a really nice Kandy tour with Sajith. Even though it was a little rainy, Sajith could time the tour well, and I didn't miss anything. Thank you!Written 21 June 2024
- shaunn4430 contributionsNot to be missedI highly recommend taking this full day city tour if you can have Sajith as your guide. As a local his knowledge was excellent. He is very personable, considerate and patient. His friend joined us for the tour of the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic, as he is an expert in the field. Not to be missed.Written 9 May 2024
- Pioneer482213594420 contributionsExcellent guide, super flexibleAruna was an excellent guide during our time in Kandy, taking us to both the main sights in the city, as well as lesser known, "hidden treasures" that we never would have seen had we done this ourselves. Aruna was very flexible and accommodating with our plans, and I would highly recommend to anyone.Written 25 April 2024

Aruna is a very professional and one of the best driver/ tour guide we have ever met. He gave the best plan to cover most of the places in Sri Lanka. He accompanied us for all places and acted as a tour guide. Looking forward for our next trip to Sri Lanka with him. Thank you Aruna for making our trip memorable!!

Aruna showed us the great sites of beautiful Sri Lanka. He took myself and wife safely around the country and we had a fantastic time. His prices were incredibly reasonable and his company was pleasant. I’d strongly recommend a few days seeing the country with a tour guide as the roads are a nightmare and Aruna is definitely a great shout. He’ll look after you.

Aruna and his friend Saman are just amazing. From a great and friendly welcoming to the best tour at the best spots to visit.
I can't thank them enough for their expertise, professionalism and friendliness! The car included AC which is quite a must to have in this weather. The tours included all the "must to see" places in the different areas.
