シギリヤとダンブッラへの終日プライベート ツアー

Our guide Kenneth arrived as stated and picked us up earlier at our request from outside our hotel the Granbell in Columbo as we wanted to miss the rush hour traffic and mid morning sun, right from the start he was very friendly, polite, knowledgeable and informative about the places/towns we were driving through. We arrived at Sigiriya in good time and were shown by Kenneth where to get our tickets, it was $36 for an adult ticket which I feel is rather expensive, they didn't take cards just cash, rupees or dollars, the steps up are quite steep at the beginning and by the time I got to the paws i and many others were already out of breath, the climb is not as hard as I thought it would be but it is quite scary in places as most of the 1,200+ steps are metal and see though with gaps in between, the handrail is thin and the staircase narrow, people are walking both up and down the stairs but were very patient and polite, I did start feeling unwell and dizzy but after a rest at the top, water and lots of photos we were ready to come down, we were back in the car in less than 2 hours. The tombs at Dambulla were interesting but there were a lot of people around and photographs had to be taken quickly, after walking up the steps in Sigiriya the 350+ steps were definitely not leg friendly in places, before going home we went to the Cemetery, it was $3 to get in and quite honestly there was not much to see there, it took less than 10 minutes to walk round but it was clean and tidy and the staff there were friendly. If you choose to go on this tour we highly recommend asking if Kenneth can take you, lots of happy memories, very tired legs but anther perfect day spent in Sri Lanka.

We booked a tour through Viator for a full day tour from Colombo to visit Sigiriya Rock Fortress and Dambulla Cave Temples. Our guide, Kenneth, was great! He made sure we knew exactly where to go and helped us buy entry tickets at each place. We were picked up at 6am and arrived back in Colombo about 6.30pm. We thoroughly enjoyed our day exploring some of Sri Lanka's beauty and culture.

We took the day tour to Dambulla and Sigirya rock with Diyath. He picked us up at our hotel. Everything went as planned. On the way Diyath taught us many things concerning culture and life in Sri Lanka. He was a perfect guide and a good driver. We can only recommend the tour with him!

I was 10 days with the guide Kanishka and car on the road. Very good guided tours and assistance throughout the day. Highly recommended.

Super friendly driver, flexible and adapts to what you want to see. Got a lot of info on the way too.

A long day due to the distance and traffic but well worth it to view these fascinating sites. Excellent Driver and Guide - Ayela from whom I learned a great deal about Sri Lanka.

This is a "must do" tour! Our tour guide Tharaka was amazing and very knowledgeable. He was very accommodating and didn't complain about the very long day we had. I recommend this tour.

We were in need of a one-way transport from Kandy to Sigiriya, with stops at the Dambulla Caves and Sigiriya Rock. Kanishka from Sri Lanka by Car responded to our email inquiries and was able to arrange this private transfer for us. Our driver, Nihal, arrived at our Kandy hotel ahead of time. NIhal speaks very good English and is quite knowledgeable about Sri Lanka. He brought us to some local places for food, which we appreciated, as the food was reasonable and delicious. At the caves, Nihal provided commentary so we could understand the history of the caves and how they came to have so many Buddhas. After that, Nihal helped us find a wood carving store so we could purchase a piece we were interested in. When we arrived at Sigiriya, we decided to wait until morning to climb on our own, when it would be a bit cooler. So we missed out on Nihal's expert information, but that was our choice due to arriving near the rock fortress late in the afternoon. I can recommend Sri Lanka by Car, and especially our driver, Nihal. The price was reasonable and the service provided quite good.

I visited Sigiriya and Dambulla from Colombo...Mr Harsha had accompanied us and gave us wonderful insights on Sigiriya rock and Dambulla Caves history...He has lot of knowledge about Buddhism and history which is important especially if you are visiting a world heritage site ...Our journey was smooth with a nice car...We left at 7 in morning and came back by 9pm to Colombo...

We had a great day in Sirigiya and Dambulla. Beehives on the rock of Sirigiya, too much noise can cause an attack...
