Our holiday rep booked a safari day for us before we left England. It was an absolutely fantastic day out we hadn’t realised it was a private tour just for us so that was a bonus. Sam the manager rang us the evening before we went to confirm times and drivers name. We had Dinesh who was amazing he picked us up at 5 am and we got back after 6 pm. He pointed out lots of interesting facts on our journey too. We decided we would go to Galle the following week so messaged Sam to see if we could book same driver and not do everything that was on the list and it was no problem. We did Galle fort then silk factory and tsunami museum which was all very interesting. We stopped to have some lunch on the way back to hotel. Would highly recommend this company. If we come back to Sri Lanka again will certainly be using them. Thank you very much Sam and Dinesh Sarah and Chris.

It’s a great experience. The ambiance is very welcoming and charming. Amazing food and service. Staff are extremely polite and friendly and I just want to say that, in addition to awesome food, we had a delightful waiter, “Dhanushka”. He had just the right balance of friendliness and efficiency. He recognized that we wanted time to visit and made certain that we had everything we needed.
