Excellent service. Our driver Mr Kumara was very polite, considerate, very smooth driving skills and helped us visit a lot of places without tiring us out. The service by him was beyond expectations and would definitely recommend this service to others. It was worth the money. His service helped us enjoy the beauty of Sri Lanka in the best possible way.
Despite having limited prior knowledge of VAC Tours, I booked a customized six-day itinerary based on their strong online reputation. Our primary requirement was a reliable, English-speaking driver-guide to navigate us through the country. Traveling internationally with a toddler naturally introduces a degree of logistical anxiety, but the team at VAC Tours swiftly alleviated all concerns from day one. We were assigned Mr. Kumara, and I can state without hesitation—drawing from extensive international travel experience—that his professionalism and genuine hospitality are unparalleled. His punctuality was flawless throughout the entirety of the trip, and his responsiveness to our needs was immediate. His dedication to our comfort was so complete that we often wondered when he even found the time to rest or eat. Mr. Kumara consistently elevated the experience by proactively integrating unmapped, high-value locations into our daily routes at absolutely no additional cost. Furthermore, his local expertise proved invaluable; he guided us to excellent, cost-effective vendors for clothing and souvenirs, ensuring we avoided typical tourist markups. The operational execution by VAC Tours was equally impressive. Thoughtful inclusions, such as two complimentary local SIM cards and daily bottled water, demonstrated excellent foresight. Furthermore, navigating the terrain in a spacious, air-conditioned six-seater vehicle significantly mitigated travel fatigue, completely removing the stress of transit for our family. The Verdict: I unequivocally recommend VAC Tours, and specifically Mr. Kumara, to any traveler seeking a seamless, expertly guided experience. They deliver exceptional value, uncompromising professionalism, and remarkable peace of mind—making them an especially outstanding choice for families traveling with young children.
Excellent service. The driver was very good. Very reasonable rate. Overall experience was superb. Very humble people. All should do booking with them.
Savindu was our deiver and guide and he did a great job. Very knowledgeable about srilanka and its roads.
Amazing drivers. Courteous and helpful. Went out of their way to accommodate our requests.
Our Sri Lanka trip with Shashindu Travel Company was honestly one of the most seamless and memorable travel experiences we’ve had. From the very beginning, everything was handled with so much care and professionalism. Shashindu made sure our itinerary was perfectly balanced — not too rushed, yet covering all the beautiful highlights of Sri Lanka. As a couple, we really appreciated how thoughtfully the trip was planned, giving us both adventure and quiet, meaningful moments together. The stays were comfortable, the travel arrangements were smooth, and the local insights made the experience feel authentic rather than touristy. What stood out the most was the warmth and responsiveness — any small request or change was handled instantly, without stress. Sri Lanka itself is stunning, but having the right guide makes all the difference — and Shashindu truly elevated the entire experience for us. If you're planning a trip to Sri Lanka, especially as a couple, we would highly recommend Shashindu Travel Company. It felt less like a service and more like being taken care of by someone who genuinely wanted us to have the best time. — Neha & Bharat
Had an amazing trip to Srilanka. Dulara has been a great guide and driver during the trip, he made our trips very relaxing and worth. Probably will visit Srilanka again and I will choose Dulara only.
Mr. Dushan was in constant touch with me even before my flight! He has been a wonderful guide to us. As I was with parents, he was very patient and kind towards us and managed with our timings. He was hospitable too. Great experience overall! Would love coming back again!
The we had a great time in Srilanka with them. Srilanka is a beautiful country made even more beautiful by the people here.
