We had the absolute best time touring with Mr.Madhujan & Mr.Sambanthar! Right from pickup, they made sure we were totally taken care of and safe. The van was super clean, really spacious, and the AC was an absolute lifesaver on the long drives. The guides knows the local history inside and out and took us to some amazing places. They were prompt, professional, and had the best attitude. 10/10 recommend for a stress-free trip!
I can’t recommend Arun and his team enough, especially Sujee. From the moment I met him, I felt safe and cared for. When I accidentally left my favorite leather bag at a restaurant, Sujee immediately rode his motorbike to take me back, made sure I wore a helmet, and didn’t rest until we found it safe at hotel reception. That’s integrity. All day Sujee showed me Jaffna with so much pride and knowledge. His English is excellent, he’s very personal, and he explains the history at every temple, beach, and fort so well. You don’t just visit places with him — you understand them. After a busy morning, he brought me back for the most delicious homemade lunch by Arun’s mum — Crab curry, Fish curry, and Sago with Coconut Cream. Cooked with love. After my 2 hour break, Sujee came back to pick me up again. We went to the local markets together, he took me to a traditional place for prawn, chicken & lamb, we captured awesome pics and he even shared photography techniques with me. Such an awesome time. As a small thank you and farewell, I took Sujee out for dinner. He stayed with me till evening and made my last day in Jaffna unforgettable. Sujee is not just a guide. He’s a responsible, kind tourism degree student who represents Jaffna beautifully. Arun has built something special here. If you want to see Jaffna properly, with safety, stories, and soul… ask for Sujee. You won’t regret it. Message to Sujee directly: Sujee brother 🙏 Thank you for today. For the bag, for the food, for the markets, for staying with me till now. I’ll miss you. You made Jaffna feel like home. You’re going to do amazing things. Keep sharing your light ❤️
A very good experience, so much history
Arun has been so friendly an kind to us during our Tour, I would defenitly go on a Tour with him again. He showed us beautiful Places like the Jaffna Fort, where we watched one of the most beautiful Sunsets I have ever seen. The Food was great and we got to experience a rare Festival at a traditional Tempel, such beautiful colours, people and vibes. Thank you Arun. ☺️

My partner and I had the best day exploring Jaffna with Arun!! We learnt so much about the Jaffna history, culture and Hinduism throughout the day while visiting various sites. Arun is such a warm, friendly and welcoming guide, which makes you feel like you're exploring Jaffna with an old friend. His deep of knowledge, passion and enthusiasm to connect people with authentic Jaffna experiences really blew us away! We constantly kept asking Arun how do you know all this, it's insane the amount of knowledge he had. He also allowed us to ask as many questions as we wanted..of which I had many! The highlights for us were visiting the Jaffna fort, the jaffna library, wandering through the markets and trying the local sweets and of course Rio's for a delicious ice cream sundae! We truly felt like we got to experience the true Jaffna and got an incredible insight into what life is really like for the locals in Jaffna. A big heartfelt thank you to Arun as this was one of the most memorable experiences during our 5 week trip to Sri Lanka!! ❤️ We also did the traditional Jaffna cooking class with Arun and his mother and we highly recommend it if you're after a traditional, authentic and heartfelt experience!!

Had a fantastic tour with Arun today, going all around Jaffna on a motorbike to the Nallur Kandaswamy Devasthanam Hindu Temple, the Jaffna Kingdom ruins, the Public Library, and finally the Jaffna Fort at sunset. Arun is incredibly knowledgeable and ready to answer any questions, of which I typically had many. The perfect way to start my time in Jaffna and get an overview of the history here - of Sri Lanka, the Tamil culture, Hinduism, and the recent history of the Civil War. Highly recommend this company!

Arun is a highly knowledgeable and passionate guide. As someone whose roots are in Jaffna but didn’t grow up there I was not aware of the history pre dating colonial times. The tour which was just a day taught me more about our history than I could have imagined and I left feeling closer to Jaffna - historically and culturally. Arun gave detailed explanations of each place we went to whether it be Nallur Temple or Jaffna Fort. Highly recommend this tour and will definitely be recommending this tour to friends and family venturing to Jaffna!
Thank you very much for sharing such a meaningful reflection. We’re truly honored to know that the tour helped you reconnect with Jaffna on a deeper historical and cultural level. Arun is deeply passionate about sharing the pre-colonial history and heritage of the region, and it means a lot to hear that his explanations at places like Nallur Temple and Jaffna Fort made such an impact. Your recommendation to friends and family is greatly appreciated, and we would be delighted to welcome you back whenever you return to Jaffna.
