Fantastic trip to see the ruins. - First class visit to Polonnaruwa. Driver on time for an early pickup. Safe driver and lovely comfortable car. Arrived at the museum to buy tickets and wander. Then driven to all the important stops and shown what to see. We didn’t choose to have a guide but it could easily be arranged. We had exactly the time we wanted at each stop and it was perfect. Communication with company was spot on all the time too so it was really easy to organise. Would highly recommend this company.

Great tour of Polonnaruwa - Very positive experience, definitely recommended! Our driver, Shahiru, was very professional, kind and smiling. He was also very flexible in terms of tour start times and helped us find a restaurant to have lunch in the middle of the day. In case you need a tour guide during the tour, just let the tour operator or driver know. Communication with the organizer Sinhagiri Tours was also very clear and timely; we were constantly in contact with them before, during and after the tour via WhatsApp messages. During our stay in Sri Lanka we also did other tours with the same driver and tour operator (Anuradhapura, Hurulu Eco Park, Sigiriya) and everything always worked perfectly! Well done!

Great Polonnaruwa experience with driver Shahiru (Sinhagiri Tours)! - Very positive tour experience, definitely recommended! Our driver, Shahiru, was very professional, kind and caring; he drove us through Polonnaruwa sites always with a smile on his face. He was also very flexible in terms of timing and supportive in finding a restaurant for having lunch. In case you need a tour guide during the tour, just let the tour operator know and they will help you with this as well; otherwise, just bring with you a travel guide / book. Communication with the tour operator, Sinhagiri Tours, was also very clear and timely. We have been consistently in touch with them before, during and after the tour via WhatsApp messages. During our stay in Sri Lanka we also had other tours with this same driver and tour operator (Anuradhapura, Hurulu Eco Park, Sigiriya), and everything always worked very smoothly! Well done!

Great service in Sirigiya - 10/10 absolutely amazing and reliable service based in Sirigiya, the driver brought us to all the temples and parks we wanted to see, waited for us and gave us some history background as well. On top of it all the price was very affordable. Would definitely recommend

Easy and friendly - We got exactly what we wanted on this trip! We didn’t need a tour guide but the driver was really friendly and pointed us in the right direction of where to go. 23 has the option to hire bikes or have use the car to get around to the various sites, we chose the car as it was really hot but I was happy we were given the option of both. Super easy and comfortable and great communication on WhatsApp when needed. Thank you!

Time Travel - I was driven to the specified locations. Since I knew that I was traveling without a guide, I did some research myself the evening before, what did help to understand. My driver did everything to make my trip comfortable. Thank you!

Great tour through Polonnaruwa - It was a great day in Polonnaruwa. We were shown all the important sights and told a bit about the history of Sri Lanka. Recommended for anyone who wants to delve a little into the country's history.

Anshin Tour - I was traveling alone, but the guide was very considerate of the travelers. All conversation was in English, but the guide listened carefully to my broken English and responded sincerely. He also drove safely, so even those who are worried about Sri Lankan drivers needn't worry.

Great Experience - It was a great journey. Lakshitha was a good driver and he was driving safely. Polonnaruwa is a very beautiful place. You can see ancient ruins and ancient technology if Sri Lanka.

Misleading - Be aware this is not a private tour is just a pick up and drop off from the locations within the archeological site. You can find a better deal with any driver from Sigiriya. Definitely not recommend too pricey
