Unforgettable experience - If you are looking for a reliable driver: I can recommend natureParadise Tours to anyone. I booked the tour very spontaneously after arriving and it still went smoothly. Lakmal organized this tour. I can't imagine a better guide. Despite my poor English, he patiently told me about Sri Lanka's interesting history and facts. Punctual, very nice, easy to contact and if you want to hear interesting stories about sights and insider tips, then I recommend nature Paradis tours.

The best of Sri Lanka in one week - We had a great time in Sri Lanka with our guide Lakmal. We had a comfortable car and Lakmal drove us safely around. We could alter our trip to meet our needs and thus explored the best of Sri Lanka. Lakmal is a passionate hiker. When visiting Sri Lanka next time, we will consider a hiking trip with him

Great Sri Lanka 7 day round trip - All in all, it was a great tour that I will never forget. A very good guide and driver who was reliable, very kind and who was able to show me a lot. He had a lot of background information about the sights, religion etc. I felt safe at all times. You can customize the tour according to your wishes and needs. I would also recommend clarifying that from the beginning on what you would like to see, what you value and what you don't want to have in terms of stops (e.g. if you don't like shopping). That's the way I did it and I had good experiences with it. If you have any problems or questions, you could always turn to the guide and he will support you. Would definitely recommend it and I saw a lot of great spots and landscapes within the week. it's worth it!!! Thanks a lot!!
