Exceptional holidays with Ruwan - We spent 9 unforgettable days (to 5) in the presence of Ruwan, he made us discover his country and customs. He is a smiling, kind, generous, serious person and very attached to his country. He immediately immersed us, sometimes off the beaten track. Ruwan was very attentive and attentive to our desires. I say that our level of English was academic and he managed to make himself understood. We also stress his caution on the road... Thanks again for all Ruwan, our trip would not have had the same flavor without you!

Stay all in style - We spent 10 days with Ruwan, my husband, our daughter and me. He was an excellent driver/Guide. he was very attentive, knew how to show us his country, its traditions, the magnificent views, with the main interest: to please us. We visited with him Negombo, Galle, Sinharaja, Rain Forest, Ella, Nuwara Eliya, Kandy, Dambulla, Sigiriya, Polonnaruwa and he dropped us off at Nilaveli to spend 4 nights there. We really advise you Ruwan, he is calm, patient, discreet, generous but what touched us most is that he continues to marvel at all the beauty of his country and he is proud to show us every corner. Thanks to Ruwan, we had a great holiday and it is largely thanks to him. I would also like to thank Nadine Caron for connecting us.

Amazing round trip with experienced and safe driver and guide - Ruwan is an amazing driver and guide, he picked as up from the airport and spent the next 12 days with us. We were 2 adult and 4 kids really enjoying this exceptional trip, and especially valued Ruwan's open and friendly way to explain Sinhalese daily culture, food, animals and plants to us. He often stopped on long trips for a short break to by some fruits or refreshments and managed local guides, like booking and extra Safari for us. Also - when we had some medical issues, he brought us to the next doctor or stopped by a hospital without any issues. Also our kids liked his spacious car with lots of ways to control the air conditioning :-) To sum it up: It was an amazing time we had on that round trip in Sri Lanka in April 2024 with Ruwan - thanks for it, and really recommended if you need a private driver or guide there.

A perfect week 👍 - Ruwan was a very good guide. He is friendly and pleasant. He accompanied us for a week. It is important and very practical to have a taxi that follows us everywhere. Bravo to him!

Extra driver - Ruwan exceeded all my expectations!! I had an itinerary and he followed it, but best of all, he optimized it so much that we were able to do lots of activities that weren't originally planned. We were never disappointed, he is more than friendly, incredibly kind... I can only praise him!!! Go there with your eyes closed and what's more, he takes your photos which will be more beautiful than yours anyway.. a perfect driver / guide 💕

Ruwan driver guide invested and passionate - Ruwan was a wonderful driver-guide, smiling and discreet. She is an extremely generous person who deeply loves her country. He was therefore able to help us discover with passion the beauty of Sri Lanka. We traveled with him with our 16 month old baby, he always knew how to adapt to our travel wishes and constraints. At first we were hesitant about traveling with a guide or alone. Traveling with Ruwan brought us a lot of comfort and allowed us to discover many more things than expected. Ruwan offered us places that were always authentic and adapted to our wishes, far from the “tourist traps”. Ruwan was very invested in his work as a driver guide, our satisfaction and our well-being was his priority.

Lamentable company ripping off tourists - Ignorant An incredible scam To think that people pay 5 to 10 times the Award to do Things to do with this agency , they have a Facebook page for not advising the Traveler but selling them tours with driver and guides, it is a scam and a classic pigeon catcher at sei lanka , do not be fooled
