Excellent Tour and Tour Company - The Tour company were amazing, specifically Dinesh Kumar who drove and accompanied us for two days. We did the Spice Garden, Tea Factory, Gem Stone Factory and a Cultural Show in Kandy and on a separately booked tour, day two was the trip to Sigiriya and a Village Tour. Dinesh was just Fantastic, always punctual, polite, friendly, knowledgeable of local areas and history and very accommodating to all of our requests. The tours are amazing, the people are so welcoming and such beautiful things to see and learn about. We highly recommend these two tours, and, if you can, request for Dinesh to be your driver / guide, he's a gem.

Two Families, One Day in Kandy! - Our family vacation in Sri Lanka wouldn't have been the same without this incredible private tour in Kandy! With two families and four kids in tow, it was fantastic to have a spacious, air-conditioned van for a comfortable journey throughout the day. The tour itself was perfectly curated, offering a delightful mix of history, culture, and stunning natural beauty. We loved learning about the tea-making process at the Tea Factory, and the kids were mesmerized by the dazzling gems at the museum. The Royal Botanical Gardens were a breath of fresh air, with lush greenery and exotic plants providing a welcome respite. The highlight for all of us was definitely the majestic White Buddha statue overlooking Kandy Lake. The panoramic views from the vantage point were breathtaking, and we snapped some fantastic family photos there. To top it all off, the cultural dance show with fire dancing and fire walking was a thrilling and captivating finale to the day. A big thank you to our amazing driver for navigating us safely throughout Kandy. This private tour was truly a 5-star experience, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone visiting Sri Lanka!

We didn’t get to... - We didn’t get to experience much like locals, which was disappointing since the guide was supposed to teach and show us more. Instead, we only visited two places—an herbal shop and a woodshop. We did spend some time at the woodshop, and I got to purchase some unique handmade items, which was nice. However, the guide was quite reckless, talking on the phone while driving, which was concerning. Despite all this, we managed to have some fun moments along the way!
