Authentic Experience with Outstanding Service! - We had an incredible experience with Nalin, our car driver. He provided exceptional service by going above and beyond to retrieve a forgotten purchase and personally deliver it back to our ship. The tuk-tuk ride was another highlight—it offered us a genuine glimpse into everyday life, far from the typical tourist activities. It was exactly what we were looking for. Highly recommend this experience with Beyond Escapes for anyone seeking authenticity and top-notch service!

Hambantota Tuk Tuk Cruise Ship Excursion THE BEST!! - Great experience from start to finish! Our cruise ship docked in Hambantota and our tour guide, Manju, was on the pier to pick up our group of 8 ahead of schedule. The tour operator and Manju were prompt with communication, professional and polite. While I know you can't always pick your guide, Manju was amazing. His English is fluent and his knowledge of the area, history and sites made the experience even better. The 40 minute drive (in our private and very clean van) to Tissa was comfortable and easy. Our 4 TukTuk drivers were waiting for us and gave us a relaxing, educational and fun tour around town. We wanted immersive and that is exactly what this tour offers. Overall, GREAT experience! Thank you!!!

Very interesting and informative! - We had a delightful Tuk Tuk tour of the very interesting lake and water reservoir! The guide provided detailed English descriptions of the temples and landmarks. His English and driving was excellent! Note that it was a one hour bus ride to the Tuk Tuk in Yala.

Tuk tuk from cruise harbor to local village - Our driver (sorry forget his name) was fabulous. We told him we’d already been on a Yala and Udawalwa safari, so he stuck to the local sights, showed us fruit bats hanging in the trees and stopped at roadside stands so we could taste local fare: Roti & Dahl, Ceylon tea, chili cookies, curd from water buffalo milk sweetened with coconut honey (yummm so good) and lastly king coconut juice and the flesh (only grown in Sr Lanka) and corn on the cob. It took 3 transfers from safari jeeps to get to the tuk tuk, but it was so worth the trip. Felt completely safe and catered to, it was so great! Thank you to everyone involved!!
