Dubai Traveler

We are a family currently living in Dubai and usually spend our summer holidays traveling around Europe. Although we are Sri Lankan nationals, this was our first time exploring Sri Lanka as tourists, and it turned out to be an unforgettable experience. This year, we chose Pasindu Perera through Tripadvisor for our holiday and completed a fantastic 5-day round trip covering Negombo, Dambulla, Sigiriya, Kandy, and Nuwara Eliya. The advertised price for the Negombo to Sigiriya day tour was USD 115, and we added several excursions to customize our itinerary. Every part of the trip was well organized, smooth, and enjoyable. Pasindu is young, professional, and speaks excellent English, which made communication easy throughout the journey. He also has a luxurious Toyota minibus, recently imported from Japan, and we were impressed by how clean, comfortable, and well maintained it was throughout the entire trip. His driving skills were excellent, and we always felt safe and relaxed while traveling. He was punctual, helpful, flexible with our plans, and always made sure we were comfortable. Overall, we spent 4 nights and 5 days touring with him and were completely satisfied with the experience. We highly recommend Pasindu to anyone looking for a reliable, comfortable, and enjoyable private tour in Sri Lanka. I’m writing his contact details as follows Contact Via Watsup - +94769292016
