We were a group of 6 friends from Spain and hired this company for a 10-day tour around Sri Lanka. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience, especially thanks to our driver, Ifshan. From the very first moment, he gave us such a warm and kind welcome that we immediately felt comfortable. Throughout the trip, he was always looking after us and making sure we were happy and safe. Whenever we asked for recommendations—whether it was a restaurant, a beach, a place to visit, or anything else—he always took us to the perfect spot based on what we were looking for. One of our favourite things was that, during the drives between destinations, he would sometimes stop so we could try delicious local food or experience something authentic that we would never have found on our own. Those little surprises made the trip even more special. By the end of the trip, we had grown really fond of Ifshan. He was always kind, patient, and genuinely cared about making sure we had the best possible experience. We are very grateful for everything he did for us, and we truly believe our trip wouldn’t have been the same without him. We would happily recommend both the company and especially Ifshan to anyone visiting Sri Lanka.
We recently covered a planned visit to Eastern Srilanka. What made it interesting was covering all terrains which included Dambulla which is known for it’s Forests, Kandy for it’s hills, Pasikudah for it’s beaches and Colombo to wrap things up. Rishan who owns the fleet was professional from day 1 when we started our enquiries. All our apprehensions pertaining to availing taxi services in another country was carefully and patiently managed by him. Zubair who was assigned to take us around was superbly polite and friendly. At no given point did he push any touristy packages, on the contrary be was super helpful in iterating the drive and stopovers basis our request. Most importantly we found a trusted guide in him who was always looking at our best interest. Like any country which now attracts plenty of visitors, there is plethora of service providers available and perhaps competitive costs, however if you are looking for a reliable service amongst them with reasonable budgets, do get in touch with Rishan and if possible ask for Zubair to be your designated driver and guide for your visit..
Very easy for booking. The driver was extremely kind and helpful and definitely knew his way around! They know everywhere good to go and can take you to see all the best sights, no hassles. Would recommend them for sure!
We had a great, hassle-free trip! Chathur was incredibly helpful and made sure we were comfortable the entire time. We managed to visit every single place on our list. Highly recommended!
We had an amazing tour. Our driver, Nissanka, clearly loves Sri Lanka and sharing its beauty with his clients. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with him and felt safe and cared for throughout the trip.
Thank you very much for your valuable feedback..
As a family, we took a tour of Sri Lanka. Asri, our driver for this trip, was amazing! He is flexible, knows the best sights in Sri Lanka, and is always cheerful. I would say he is the perfect guide to have!
Thank you very much
Very happy with our driver. We were a bit worried it might feel awkward to have someone driving us around and staying with us all the time, but there was absolutely nothing to worry about. Asri is a very kind man who was genuinely excited to show us his country. He listened to our wishes and also came up with great suggestions. It never felt like a burden at all, and it turned out to be a wonderful way to travel through Sri Lanka. We definitely discovered some beautiful spots and restaurants that we would have missed otherwise. We chose most of the hotels and restaurants ourselves, and sometimes we asked Asri for recommendations. That combination worked really well for us. The communication with the office and the overall organization were also smooth, quick, and well arranged.
Thank you for your valuable feedback..
I quoted it on several websites from Japan, but it seemed the cheapest and most secure, so I booked it. I was relieved to hear from them quickly and they were very flexible, even though I hadn't decided on many details.
Thank you very much for your wonderful feedback..
I asked for this private driver on my first trip to Sri Lanka for 9 days. The driver's name is Prince 😊 It was a real relief to see him waiting for us when we arrived on the plane with a placard. I enjoyed giving advice and chatting during the trip. Seriously, I was able to rely on him because I knew Sri Lanka very well. They are very punctual in their meeting times and are reliable drivers. Thank you very much. Thank you.
Thank you for your valuable feedback..
Via Rishan we have booked a driver for our 3 week tour. Ibrahim was for the perfect driver: always punctual, he always remained very calm (despite the sometimes hectic traffic), very attentive and helpful. And most importantly, he's a safe driver.
Thank you for your valuable feedback..
