Highly recommended! - It was amazing experience, highly recommended! I was very impressed not only by Sigiriya and private safari tour, but also by the driver Shanesh, who was caring and most diplomatic driver I ever met (not only in South Asia but in Europe as well). Thanks for this amazing trip JK Travels!
