A very special, beautiful place - We visited in October and we had lovely weather. Sunny but not terribly hot, also not a lot of tourists. I think this was an ideal time to go to avoid crowds and unbearable heat. Our guide was excellent. The area has great history and the views were stunning. Also lots of wildlife.

Nice day trip - Amazing places, packed with history, be ready for a lot of stairs. Sigiriya is note advisable for people afraid of heights or in an unfit condition. A final word for out amazing driver, Kushan, who did his best to make us feel well all the time.

Kushan the best! - This tour was the highlight of my month-long trip around Sri Lanka! Kushan was the best guide, I started out solo but he joined me at each place we visited so it literally felt as though I was visiting with a good friend. He is incredibly kind and knowledgeable and even took me to an extra Buddhist temple and stopped for some mangoes and King Coconuts on the road. This tour is slightly more expensive that ‘many others I looked at, and it was a long day, but 100% worth it in my opinion. The walking and climbing was fine for me, but let’s just say, I slept well that night! The drive was very comfortable, the Sri Lankan lunch in the middle of some peaceful rice paddy fields was super tasty and I honestly can only say positive things about the entire day, though I probably would have skipped the Ayurvedic spice garden in hindsight as I’d already spent over a week at a retreat earlier on in my trip, but it was interesting and they offer a free massage too (just tip). Thanks again Kushan, I look forward to seeing you again when I’m next in Sri Lanka! 😁

Incredible day! - The day was incredible!! Our driver, Roshitha, was excellent and always willing to help or take a picture for us. The guide at Lion's Rock was funny and very patient (I was uncomfortable with the heights and I didn't feel rushed in the slightest).

Tour guide just drove us... - Tour guide just drove us to two different locations and left us there in the hands of locals who hounded us for money the entire time. The main reason we scheduled with a tour guide is to avoid much of this.
