Awesome 1 day tour.

It's a must if your in the area. Especially the boat trip. Can't belive how much we did in 1 day. The driver will adjust the tour to your needs.

This private tour was very nice, we had the chance to be driven by Shanu, who is not only an excellent and safe driver, but also extremely kind and helpful. Thanks to him, our trip was amazing. The communication was also really easy, with people helping us arrange the trip exactly as we wanted, even if we had some last minute arrangements. We are greatful for this amazing experience. 100% recommandation ! En français : allez-y les yeux fermés : tout le monde a été aux petits soins pour nous, et nous avons passé un merveilleux moment !

Excellent value for money

This is a good trip and value for money. Some things cost extra but this is explained when you book. We did lots of different things in the day, my favourite was the boat trip. We also had some free time in Galle. Unfortunately there wasn’t time to go to the tsunami museum as advertised. Be aware that everyone you meet during the day wants a tip. The day was good and the car was excellent. The only downside was that the driver didn’t speak much English.
