Hambantota trip - Our guide & driver were excellent! We learned a lot about Sri Lanka & Hambantota. Our guide gave us many insights into life in Hambantota.

My fave part was the lighthouse - 4 adults & lap child in a clean van, cold AC, good driver. English-speaking guide, a bit deficient in history. Bottled water. Saw fishermen drying sardines, fish market, produce market, tsunami beach, folk museum, lighthouse, hangman’s pointe, Buddhist temple, salt ponds, a croc, sweet shop, banana stand. But at the end, they stopped again at the tsunami beach & rode around the museum area. It would have been better to ask if we wanted to return to ship. Overall, good.

Terrible - This company new he had people coming at another time and did not inform the other group. We sat in a van for 2 hours because Viator had a time of 9 and Trip Advisor s time was 7. We did not see everything on the list either. Would not recommend this tour company

Horrible excursion and experience - I just wanted you to know that this company booked on Viator as well on a different time than trip advisor. 4 of us had to sit in a car for 2 hours waiting for the others to come that was scheduled for 9 on viator, ours was at 7 through trip advisor. They did not take us to the Salt Factory or to the museum. This is no reflection on the driver or the guide they did the best they could. They knew full well what the company did. I want a refund on the this excursion. Very deceitful and I would not recommend this tour company
