We contacted Sam, the business owner, and his charming wife based on a recommendation. They visited us at our place of residence in Colombo (Entrance Desk of our Airbnb apartment) and surprised us with a fine sweetness. We presented Sam our eight-day travel schedule. Sam added this with many good ideas and offered us a driver with a technically good car at a reasonable price. Sam also assisted us at cash withdrawals with a bank counter within a shopping center near Luna Tower, which was very practical. The bank made it possible to exchange a thick bundle of large LKR notes for smaller notes and their control with a counting machine. Sam is a very experienced, reliable and confidence-inspiring personality and was always available for questions or to assist in finding hotels during the trip. With Nuvan as our driver, he made a good choice. Nuvan is a agil and technically good driver and always balanced well between speed and safety on the hectic streets of Sri Lanka. Nuvan is reliable, speaks English well and was a good travel guide and explanatory in cultural and gastronomic matters. He assisted us in photography and was a humorous interlocutor so that I was happy happy to had him from time to time at our table when visiting a restaurant. In total, I can recommend Sam and his business for such trips at any time. He made our Sri lanka trip a success and pleasure.

I asked some companies for an estimate, but I decided to do it because they replied the fastest and the price was reasonable.
Even after I decided, I was able to communicate with Sam very smoothly using whatsapp. They came up with a plan, but when I asked them for information about places they were interested in, they told me a lot and incorporated it into their plan accordingly.
They did everything to arrange safaris etc. (Those Jeep drivers were also very nice. We were able to see Leopards, bears and lots of elephants on the way.)
We also arrived at Colombo Airport in the evening and were picked up at the airport as a service.
I was grateful to be able to pay in Japanese Yen, which was converted at the same day's google rate.
Mahee actually drove it.
Mahee explained about Sri Lanka and the region he was in while driving.
Our plan was to leave early in the morning at 4am and 5am, but they drove safely day after day without looking tired. He always waited in the car shortly before the appointment.
I was able to spend a very fulfilling time by having my plans changed at short notice during the trip and by taking me to a free spot nearby when I had a little time.
He was a knowledgeable and very helpful driver/Guide.
Good to see Sam and Mehee! Thank you very much.

We decided on a last-minute trip to Sri Lanka, which is unusual for me as I usually plan every detail. This time, I only knew I wanted to visit Yala National Park and the southern beaches. I reached out to Sam from Sri Lanka Tours with my general ideas, and he took care of the entire itinerary, organizing each day of our trip perfectly.
Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed by a big smile and garland by our guide and chauffeur, Chamal, who helped us get cash and a local SIM card before we hit the road. We were pleasantly surprised to have a spacious and comfortable Toyota Hiace for our journey, making the long drives much more enjoyable.
Our first night was near Yala in a cozy cottage nestled among paddy fields. The peaceful surroundings were perfect, and we had a restful night. The next morning, Chamal was ready at 5 a.m. with our safari guide. We were treated to a stunning starry sky, a sight rarely visible in the city. The safari itself was thrilling—we were lucky to spot elephants, leopards, peacocks, and a variety of other wildlife. Afterward, we stopped at a local restaurant for Sri Lankan veggie curry, which was fantastic.
The next three nights were spent at 18 Faces Villa in Galle, a beautiful place surrounded by greenery and complete with a pool. Our time in Galle included visiting several beaches and exploring the Galle Fort. One of the highlights was swimming with turtles at Unawatuna Beach. Chamal arranged for a local guide to help us find turtles, as well as other sea life like sharks and urchins.
One day, we visited a turtle hatchery—though interesting, it’s something you could skip if time is short. However, Chamal’s recommendation to go whale watching was unforgettable. Seeing whales up close was awe-inspiring and an absolute must if you're in Galle. After whale watching, we spent some time at a secluded beach near Mirissa, with turquoise water and white sand that gave us Maldives vibes. We could have stayed there forever.
Chamal also treated us to a delicious Sri Lankan buffet, which was a great way to sample the local cuisine. The Galle area has so many amazing food spots with fresh seafood and Sri Lankan dishes; I highly recommend trying as many as you can.
On our last day, we headed back to Colombo to catch our flight and do some last-minute souvenir shopping. Tip: buy souvenirs in places like Galle or Yala, as prices in Colombo are steep. The only item I’d suggest purchasing in Colombo is porcelain.
Finally, Chamal dropped us off at the airport, and we bid farewell. This trip was an incredible experience, and I highly recommend Sri Lanka Tours for anyone looking for a guided trip in Sri Lanka.

We had the pleasure of having Kelum as our driver for a week during our trip to Sri Lanka with friends, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we met Kelum, he was incredibly humble, respectful, and extremely nice.
Having Kelum with us was invaluable. He not only drove us around with utmost safety and care, but also made navigating to multiple locations easy and hassle-free. He was always ready with great suggestions, ensuring we didn’t miss out on any must-see spots.
Kelum was always punctual, patient, and willing to go the extra mile to ensure our comfort.
If you’re planning a trip to Sri Lanka, we highly recommend having Kelum as your driver. His kindness and professionalism were the perfect complement to our adventure, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide on the road. Thank you, Kelum!

What an incredible experience! I must begin by expressing that this ranks among the finest services I've ever encountered from any business.
Right from the outset, Sam exceeded expectations with his wealth of information and a meticulously crafted itinerary for my two-week journey. He graciously accommodated date changes and even arranged a complimentary late afternoon airport pickup—a thoughtful gesture that set the tone for the exceptional service to follow. Sam's attention to detail extended to providing pertinent information and documentation regarding the driver's registration, instilling confidence and peace of mind.
The vehicle provided was impeccable, boasting comfortable seating and much-appreciated air conditioning, especially welcome during April's warmth.
The highlight, however, was the journey itself, made extraordinary by my driver, Pree. Over the course of two weeks, Pree proved to be an invaluable companion, combining profound knowledge of Sri Lanka with an infectiously friendly demeanor. He effortlessly navigated off the beaten path, offering insightful recommendations and unveiling hidden gems, such as the awe-inspiring sights of Anuradhapura, including its magnificent stupa. Pree's punctuality was impeccable, ensuring seamless starts to each day's adventures. Moreover, his exceptional driving skills provided reassurance on Sri Lanka's bustling roads—a true asset that enhanced the journey's enjoyment.
Pree, thank you immensely for your outstanding service and companionship throughout the trip. You truly made it an unforgettable experience.
In conclusion, I wholeheartedly endorse touring with this company, particularly with Pree as the driver. Their commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction is unparalleled.

We have recently returned from an 11 Day tour around Sri Lanka. The schedule arranged by Sam. Communication from the start of the holiday planning was precise and quick. Our driver was Jeewan. He was a very safe driver, punctual, courteous, friendly and knowledgeable about a country that he clearly loves. He represented the company and Sri Lanka extremely well. We visited many of the cultural sites and Yala national park. All of which were lovely and we were lucky enough to see “Lucas” the king leopard of the park.
I highly recommend this company and Jeewan as your personal driver.
