Best experience in Sri Lanka - I can highly recommend Saj. I spent a long weekend in Kandy and he showed me the best spots! I didn't have to worry about anything and it was great fun! No matter what you want to do, he plans an unforgettable trip with all your wishes! There were many excursions to popular destinations and also trips to hidden gems. Thank you so much for this unforgettable experience in Sri Lanka

The best tour guide! Thank you. - Saj has been the best tour guide. Extremely friendly, helpful and kind. He showed us all the best hidden gems in Sri Lanka, and tailored our two days with him perfectly. We saw a beautiful quiet waterfall, climbed Pidurangala rock, went on an elephant safari, spice gardens, a tea factory, and more. We couldn’t have had a better time, will definitely be recommending to all our family and friends!

Best experience in Sri Lanka with Saj ! - I did some days trip in Kandy and the Tour Kandy to Sigiriya with Michael and Saj and it was amazing ! You can not miss it if you want to have a real nice experience with the best local people. The stops on the way to Sigiriya were really nice (spice garden, Dambula temple) and for lunch we stop to one of the best indien restaurant I went to ! 2 days in Sigiriya with safaris were perfect thanks Saj’s good knowledges of places and people there. I was traveling alone and definitely recommend Saj for anybody traveling to Sri Lanka !

Kandy and the cultural triangle - Michael made us visit Kandy. He took us to Pidurangala, Dambulla, and Polonnaruwa as well. He is a very kind and smiling person. He made our trip 10x better with his positive vibes. He even invited us to his home to have dinner with his family. We met there his wife and younger son, who were as kind as him. I am very thankful that I met him, he was very helpful and the trip was easier with him. He knows the surroundings well, he was choosing the restaurants that were really good and cheap. I would recommend him for any tourist, you will never get bored with him.

How to take back a bittersweet memory of SriLanka - The truth is, 4 days ago I wouldn't have written what I'm going to put here below, but I have to be honest. My friend and I arrived to Sri Lanka with excitement and we were going to do the route with Saj and days before the trip, he changed it for us to do it with his father Michael. In principle everything is fine, until you realize that they steal 200 eu. During the trip, they have changed our routes and in addition to taking us to the typical tourist-catching sites such as the spice garden, gem shops, etc. After the plan we didn't do several things and we had to pay for another thing when in theory it was included in the price (like the Ayurveda massage). Only a few of the hotels were good, most were far away and I took them the same day. We also had to stand on the train. After all, on the last day we realized that we were missing money (200 euros) and we had not used euros in cash (we think it was at the house that takes you to eat with Michael's wife). Now, is when we realize why some of our acquaintances have had the same experience a few days before and have also been robbed. You are warned…
