    We had been dealing with Rishan. He is professional and friendly. We hired his vehicles to visit Down South, Sinharaja Rainforest, Kandy, Sigiriya, and Dambulla.
    The vehicles he supplied were in excellent condition. the divers were punctual, friendly and reliable. I would recommend his service to anyone who seeks trustworthy transport in Sri Lanka.

    First time in Sri Lanka and totally enjoyed the experience. We spent 12 days travelling the south of the country starting in Kandy and ending up back in Columbo. Galle was a real surprise and the printers hotel was sublime, a real gem with a fantastic colonial vibe. Definitely my favourite. Our guide Imwaaz was knowledgeable and took us to all the great places and was indispensable, ever the professional. Our driver Mehsan took us door to door and navigated the chaotic traffic safely. They could not have been more approachable and nothing was too much trouble. Thanks for making our trip we have so many wonderful memories. Thinking of coming, I would say just come and enjoy all that this country and its wonderful people have to offer.

    Very reliable service we used on every leg of our trip, from Colombo Airport to Hambantota, to Yala, to Ella, to Kalantura and final leg to Colombo airport. On time, easy communication with Francis on upcoming drivers. And finally safe driving

    We used this service for 8 days whilst travelling in Sri Lanka. We had Ashen as our driver and he was a kind, experienced driver who made us feel safe on the roads. He picked us from Srilanka airport and drove us around Nuwara Eliya, Yalla national park and Galle. He was at our service whenever we needed, and genuinely wanted us to experience as much as possible during the days we spent with him. An absolute great experience, with a good price, that we would recommend to everyone!

    We had a great experience with our tour guide Jagath Chandra. He is truly amazing! He went above and beyond in making the trip enjoyable and took extra care in meeting the diverse needs of my family and daughters.

    He was a safe and friendly driver and is truly a gentleman. He took us to more places on our tour than expected as he knew exactly where the great spots are.

    From great music selection, travelling west to east coast, taking me to see my grandpa where he was resting, visiting cousins , uncles and aunts places, to reliable jewellery stores, he knew it all! Highlight was the elephant orphanage and washing the elephant!

    Next time we come we would love to hire Jagath again!

    I highly recommend Jagath, who spoke well in English and the local languages. Best tour guide ever!

    Kind regards

    We did a 9 days tour around Sri Lanka and we couldn't be happier. Mr. Fez was always prompt in his replies and helped arranging a private driver for us in very short notice.
    Suranga was very helpful and despite not having perfect English was always reliable, helpful, on time and friendly. He drove us without any issues through some crazy mountain roads without any hassle and, more than that, always gave good suggestions and great last minute tips for things to do and see, fitting with our rough itinerary. A trustworthy driver that will become your friend, I'm sure, by the end of your trip.
    If you have any doubts or are just looking for a private driver for you and your family, I highly recommend reaching out to Mr. Fez. (With a little luck you may get Suranga, but I'm sure any of his other colleagues will be great as well). Thank you Mr. Fez and THANK YOU Suranga. See you soon!

    Trustworthy and friendly taxi service. We hired mini bus for group of 14. The driver and his brother were very helpful and made our trip memorable. Definitely recommended when in Srilanka to take their taxi service.

    We had Shan with us for 4 days and he made the experience so seamless! He was very accommodating to everyone's personal preferences with a smile on his face no matter how tiring the day had been! He helped us with reccomendations regarding food or shopping. His sunny disposition also encouraged my parents to plan a trip to Srilanka! Will reccomend SLE tours to everyone who comes! Thanks alot Shan for your help!

    Good quality cars and drivers maybe a little fussy but overall a very good service. Price quoted on booking will change at the destination but since not a big difference from original price thats fine. Most to improve on would be the driver to come to the terminal on time

    First impression of a country should be clean and tidy but not this airport. The luggage boys have an evil eye and have to be very careful. Immigration officers needs to be more friendly but here they need some customer care training very urgently. Hope the authorities would pull their socks up

    Mano made our Sri Lanka tour amazing! We are so grateful that he gave us memories for life. Mano is always there if we need him, takes care of us, stops at the right places, and is solely focused on ensuring we have a great time. He even invited us to his home for a very delicious lunch. Thank you so much, Mano! The best driver/guide we could have had on our trip.
