Incredible time with a dedicated and passionate private guide, customisable to fit interests - In January 2024, I had the pleasure of embarking on a mesmerising full-day exploration of Sri Lanka's picturesque southwestern coastline, led by the delightful and knowledgeable tour guide, Sanchita. Departing from Negombo early in the day to avoid traffic, the tour promised an immersive journey into the history, culture, and wildlife of this captivating region, and it certainly delivered an unforgettable experience. Our day started with exploring Galle Fort, guided by Sanchita's expertise, was truly captivating. His knowledge of the fort's history and architecture brought the surroundings to life, allowing us to appreciate the cultural significance and remarkable preservation of this UNESCO World Heritage Site. The stroll through its cobblestone streets and ramparts was a journey back in time, offering a glimpse into the colonial legacy and the stories woven into its centuries-old walls. The next stops for us were Jungle Beach, and then the Japanese Peace Pagoda, and Talpe all offered unique and diverse experiences, from moments of tranquility and natural beauty to cultural immersion and breathtaking sights. Each stop felt carefully curated, ensuring that we encountered the full spectrum of the region's allure, with Sanchita tailoring the experience to suit our interests. Of course, witnessing the iconic stilt fishermen of Sri Lanka was an unforgettable sight, made even more special by Sanchita's ability to convey the deep-rooted traditions and customs of these skilled fishermen. We stopped at Coconut Tree hill for some snaps which turned out amazing. We then had a highlight special visit to the secluded and breathtaking Secret Beach, a true hidden gem that revealed the unspoiled beauty of Sri Lanka's coastline. Sanchita guided us through the pristine shores, narrating the coastal folklore and the significance of this well-kept secret, allowing us to appreciate the tranquility and natural splendor that surrounded us. Sanchita ensured that every aspect of the experience was well-organised and enjoyable, catering to our interests and preferences with impeccable attention to detail. Throughout the day, Sanchita's attentive guidance, warm demeanor, and wealth of knowledge truly enriched our experience, elevating the tour from a mere sightseeing excursion to a deeply personal and insightful journey. His passion for his country and dedication to providing an exceptional experience was evident at every turn, making this tour an exceptional and memorable highlight of our Sri Lankan visit. In summary, the full-day exploration of Sri Lanka's southwestern coastline in January 2024, guided by the exceptional Sanchita, surpassed all expectations. From the captivating natural encounters to the rich historical immersion, every moment was thoughtfully orchestrated, ensuring that our journey was not only educational and enriching but also filled with warmth and genuine hospitality. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone seeking a truly authentic and comprehensive introduction to the wonders of Sri Lanka's southwestern shores.

A day visiting the Southern Coast of Sri Lanka! - I want to say how fantastic this tour was, such a jam-packed day with Sanchitha, as well he let me choose some extra destinations in Mirissa as that was a place I was excited to see. Had some great conversation with him as we ventured the southern part of Sri Lanka, if I had more time I would have booked the tour with him going to central Sri Lanka (Definitely if I return I will do this tour too!). If I could give this tour more than 5 stars I would, you won't be disappointed, this tour has everything and more, from beaches to conservation parks to spiritual landmarks to boat rides! Thank you Sanchitha, I will always remember this day tour!
