A great service provided by Upali. We booked his services for 5 days, he was very polite helpful and efficient in all ways throughout our tour. Each day arrived on time for the scheduled itinerary. The vehicle was cleaned each day very comfortable ride. As a party of two we found the service provided exceptional throughout. The information and guidance on each visit was first class. Over 5 days we were fortunate to get a glimpse of this wonderful country thanks to Upali. Our only regret was that we needed a few more days to appreciate the other areas of Sri Lanka. Will return and choose Upali as our guide/driver to explore other wonderful sights of Sri Lanka. If you want a service of quality contact Upali he will show you Sri Lanka in a traditional way. …

This summer Upali has been our guide and driver during our holidays in Sri Lanka for 2 weeks. Upali is really a great guy and we -family of 4 with 2 teenagers- can definitely recommend him as driver and guide. He did his utmost to give us the best tour possible and was also very flexible. With the itinerary we had in mind he recommended us the best places, routes and places to visit. He has a nice and luxurious van and has a safe driving style. During our tour he provided us with a lot of background information about the country, its history and also about nature. When we were in contact before we started the tour he even bought the observation saloon train tickets for us in advance! We also really enjoyed the Sri Lankan dinner at his home with his wife and kids. Upali is a great driver and a knowledgeable guide who also can help booking nice hotels (which we could not find online). Thanks Upali for the great time!…

After our first driver left us stranded in Sigiriya after only the 3rd day of our 16 day tour in January, Upali came to our rescue. Upali greeted us with a bag of mangos he had picked from his tree. From that moment on we enjoyed Upali's friendship, guidance and knowledge for the rest of our amazing trip. Upali was a cautious driver, very helpful and patient ( when we asked him to detour or stop for photos, he was very accomodating ) Sri Lanka was an amazing place and we loved every minute of out tour. Some of the highlights were climbing Sigiriya and Ella Rocks, hiking to Worlds End at Hortons Plain, catching the train through the lush green counrtyside to Ella, a jeep safari at Kadulla NP, Nine Arces Bridge, releasing 3 day old turtles into the ocean, the emotional visit to the Tsumanmi museums and monuments in Hikkaduwa, walking around Galle Fort. Upali took great pride in his van which was always clean and tidy. The vision was good and there was plenty of room in the van. We would highly recommend Upali as a driver and guide for anyone travelling to Sri Lanka. Thankyou Upali for making our holiday in Sri Lanka awesome. Bill and Sharron, Newcastle Australia…

We did a 4-day tour with Upali Priyankara, starting from Matale, then on to Bandarawela, Haputale, Mirissa, and Galle. He was always on time and is a careful driver. He is also very well prepared, right down to spare umbrellas that we could borrow. I recommend him highly.
