Kandy City Tour af Tuk Tuk

This was a packed day and our driver was happy to adapt our tour to suit us. Some of the things we were expecting couldn’t be seen due to a religious festival happening but he took us to other places instead. He was chatty and helpful and always waiting for us once we had finished in each location. This was a great way to get a taste of Kandy in a short space of time and I would definitely recommend this tour.

The driver arrived before time. he took us exactly at the places we wanted to visit. he was very kind and a good driver on teh tuktuk. we had fun. he even got our pictures and he was very communicative and expressive

The upside to taking this tour is skipping the line at the botanical gardens. Otherwise, you can achieve the same result with booking a tuktuk to each of these places.

Sanjay was epic. I had already been to the Botanical Gardens and Temple of the Tooth so they quickly thought of new places to see. He introduced me to several people he knew, gave great tips on where to eat and drink, and was very easy to ride with. Great way to see Kandy.

Best way to explore the city - prefer a tuk tuk any day over a car! Lovely breeze, easy parking and hopping in and out, close to the action. The driver, Gayan, went out of his way to make me feel safe and comfortable, especially during the busy Perahera festival time, with thousands of people around.

Even though had booked a tuk tuk tour, they turned up in a car to take us around. It was not done in the suggested way, which would be fine, but we seemed to go bank and forth. The poor tuk tuk driver who had been drafted in to take over after we had complained also had somewhere to be so we tried not to make him late. We didn't go to the market. We also had only half the advertised water. The actual places themselves were interesting and enjoyable, it was the organisation that was disappointing

I absolutely recommend Mahaweli travel agency. The Kandy tour took place through the city of Kandy in which I was able to see all the most important places in the city, the driver Mr. Amila was always attentive and accommodating. I recommend this tour with this agency because they make everything very easy for the visitor and the experience is unforgettable. I encourage other tourists to contract their tours with this agency.

Our guide Riyancy picked us up from our hotel and he took us Tea Museum, local dance show, city market and many other interesting places. Riyancy is very professional, courteous and knowledgeable as he is also doing eco tourism master in the university. We spent about 6-7 hours together.

We (a family of five) visited Kandy for three night, and wanted a tour that can summarize Kandy's main attractions in a day. Our tour guide, Jihan, did a great job explaining the historical facts behind every attraction. Jihan tried his best to fit in as much places to stop as possible, however; be warned, traffic can really be bad, especially during school's afternoon time, which will burn some of the time you need to tour the city. If you have time on hand, I suggest to split the tour into two days, to have more time to enjoy the city's attractions. One final commnet, which the tour company couldn't do anything about is the fact that to enter the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic, all women need to remove their headcovers, As a muslim family, that was not convenient, and we decided to skip the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic all together.
