An amazing ancient city - This tour is a must for anyone interested in the history of Sri Lanka. We were absolutely stunned by Polonnaruwa. The medieval ruins are beautiful and cover a surprisingly large area. Our driver took us from site to site within the ancient city, and always gave us as much time as we needed to see things. Otherwise it would have been impossible to see the ruins in one day without staying overnight somewhere nearby. It is quite far from Kandy, so having your own driver is the best way of seeing Polonnawura if you only have one day to do it. This company has proven itself to be very reliable. We also booked a Sigiriya tour with them, and were satisfied both times.
