Memorable experience! - Dinu review: We did a 3-stop hike: 200m hike up Ella Rock then lunch, followed by 9-arch bridge and a finally up Little Adam’s Peak. The hike up Ella Rock is breathtaking - through the eucalyptus forest and streams, some rocky passages were at times challenging, but very safe with our guide Dinu. He is humorous and serious about nature with much knowledge to share. He allowed us to experience the hike at our own pace with a surprise teabreak he prepared : tea leaves and hot water complete with a natural coconut husk as teacup. He carried these in his bagpack overloaded with extra gear. Dinu also didnt let us waste any time in catching the train arrival at the 9-arch bridge. Overall this tour is a recommended one. Thank you Dinu for making our hike a memorable one!

I had THE best tour with Dinuka - I had THE best tour with Dinuka! He had great pre tour communication and was prompt to pick me up the morning of the tour. Honestly he made the whole experience so enjoyable. He was very well informed and shared lots of interesting information with me about the nature, animals and Sri Lanka in general. He also knew the best and most interesting routes to take - I felt confident in him the whole time and I never felt rushed, I really felt like I set the pace. Dinuka also did some kind things and had some general nice surprises (I won’t ruin it by saying what they are). Overall it was a fun experience, I felt like a VIP the whole time and it was very good value for money. Don’t hesitate. Book now! You won’t regret it.

Recommended 300% top top top!! Amazing experience!!!! - The best guide of our 10 days in Sri Lanka!!! Truly incredible, we speak very little English and yet we leave with lots of Sri Lankan know-how! An unforgettable day truly, we felt like we were with a friend more than a guide! I recommend 300%, and luckily without knowing it, an activity that had been booked well in advance is with him in 2 days!!! We can't wait because we know we are going to have an exceptional second day!!! We will keep your gifts carefully, you can be sure of that :) Exceptional guide, if you have the opportunity go spend a day with this extraordinary person ❤️❤️❤️ And what’s more, he takes photos better than a photographer ahahah!! Looking forward to 2 days, we are super happy!!!

Worth every penny. Blessed for the experience 😊🧘 - Dinuka was a star. Highlight of my trip. Communicated from booking & still checking on me. He turned up with a tuk tuk driver. I say this cause he spent time with me & we met tuk tuk in different locations. Ella Rock was a hike, so don't eat too much breakfast. Hawaiian biscuits are popular for snacks. It's incredible as clouds drifted in & out. Dinuka surprised me with hot tea & and a lot of knowledge about the area. He then took me to a waterfall where I swam peacefully. Tea pickers everywhere. Then for lunch which was provided & delicious. The train was scheduled & he had contacts with train drivers. The walk down & views picture perfect to nine arches. Dinuka, who knew the best places for photos, made me feel like a supermodel. It was all about location & timing. Fabulous. After train past, we venture up to tuk tuk. I've travelled the world & Sri Lanka people are the kindest, most helpful people I've met. I ❤️ this country. When you meet a tour guide that goes above, above & beyond & makes you feel special. We'll always be friends. Next stop, Little Afams Peak. Was I delighted to see a swim & pretty dresses. $40 AUS to have a go. Tuk tuk driver filmed from front & Dinuka behind. Blow my mind. The video & photos were perfect. Swinging into Ella Rock. ❤️ There are zip lines & a Kool swim bar. Then off for a walk, Little Adams Peak more pictures & he gifted me with a memory I'll keep forever. Worth every cent. I hope he get tour guide award. Thank you from the back of my heart. You made my solo trip full of memories. Highly recommend as you can guess. 🤣🧘❤️

The best guided tour I’ve had.. - It was a last minute thing and Dinu delivered and more.. covered more than I expected.. well paced initerary, with gags and jokes all the way.. mystery gifts (he brings an entire convenience store in his backpack) along the way and even a special train trip which went beyond all my expectations… I would definitely seek Dinu out again as he was flexible, accommodating and very capable.. thank you for a very memorable trip and I hope to see you again

One of the best guides with many secret spots - I have done many tours around the world, but this one was unique! The guide had so much information and explained everything really well and always surprised us with something new! The view was amazing and thanks to the guide Dinu we had the chance to see so many secret spots where no one was! To top it all off, we got the chance to ride in the driver's cab of an old Diesel locomotive over the Nine Arches Bridges! A great day for the whole family!

Tea tour with Dinuka - We, there were 4 of us: two kids 7yo and 9yo, and parents, had a wonderful tea plantation tour with Dinuka on short notice. We booked the tour just the night before and despite such short notice and the fact that Dinuka was already booked with another group Dinuka took the time to make our experience special. He was flexible, catering to our specific preferences for a particular tea plantation. Dinuka's thoughtfulness and energy were evident as he not only showed us the plantation but also pointed out the surrounding nature (lemongrass, eg). He even presented us with coconut cups. Tea enjoyed in these cups and in the serene hills made it a memorable experience. Dinuka's personalized touch made this tour unforgettable. If you plan a tea tour, make sure Dinuka is your guide
