Yogeshwar • 4 days ago

​Mr. Inshaf planned an absolute dream itinerary for us across Sri Lanka. Every stop was packed with incredible activities—safari & Sigiriya rock, Dambulla, Ambu (Read More)luwava tower, visiting the Temple of the Tooth in Kandy, touring lush tea plantations & factory visit in Nuwara Eliya, watching the train cross the Nine Arches Bridge in Ella, whale & dolphins watching in Mirissa along with famous rasta rope swing, enjoying water sports & river safari with turtle hatchery in Bentota, and exploring vibrant Colombo. All the stays were excellent by providing the list of hotels/resorts he has and if possible, he'll arrange for stay in our own choice of hotels as well and the total cost of the trip would also be within budget. ​A huge, heartfelt thank you to Efas, who was so much more than a chauffeur for our first 7 days—his warmth, patience, and great driving truly made the trip special. And to Rahmath, who took such thoughtful care of us on our final day in Colombo. Flawless organization, great driving, and top-tier hospitality throughout. Highly recommended!
