Excellent guide and amazing places! - Nadith was an excellent driver and guide. He was very knowledgeable and happy to share all his insights and information with a wonderful smile. Nothing was a problem and we took another trip from Kandy to Yala National Park also. A safe driver who was also wanting us to see the best Sri Lanka has to offer.

Breathtaking Sigiriya and Dambulla caves - What an amazing day. Can’t believe we managed to fit so much in. I chose this tour because of the addition of Pidurangala rock as I heard the view of Sigiriya from the top is breathtaking. It didn’t disappoint. And Sigiriya and Dambulla caves were incredible, a combination of amazing scenery and fascinating history. I still can’t understand how they built on top of the rock! The climb up to the top of Sigiriya is an adventure but the view from the top is rewarding. Make sure you take a hat as it is hot. And the caves! So many Buddhas and cave paintings. Very special to learn about Buddhism in such an incredible setting. Nadith is an incredible tour guide. He’s extremely knowledgeable and obviously very proud of Sri Lanka and the Kandy region. He also had a good sense of humour and was easy to talk to. It made the tour even more special to have a local as the guide. I would highly recommend Nadith and Take Me Sri Lanka.

Wonderful Day trip experience - I went on a full day tour with a friend of mine in January. We were taken on the tour by Nadith who was an amazing guide. He was so knowledgeable about all the sites, he didn’t rush us and even added in a few stops that interested us. We felt very safe and cared for throughout the day and learnt so much from Nadith. We were both very grateful for such a great day and we’re so glad we crossed paths with him. The sights were amazing and the view from Pidurandala was my favourite. Nadith taught us a lot about Buddhism and walked us around the caves and temples, providing lots of information about the different statues and their history. It was fascinating. I thoroughly enjoyed our day tour and would recommend it to anyone visiting Sri Lanka. Thank you for your time and knowledge.

We had a great tour... - We had a great tour guide, Nadit, who told us all the stories about Sigriya and the Dambulla cave temples! Just beware, if you want to do all of it and you start from Kandy it‘s going to be an intense, but worthy, day!
