⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Our two-week journey around Sri Lanka with Lanka Safe Tours was one of the best holidays we have ever had, and a huge part of that was thanks to our incredible driver and guide, Sampath.
From the moment he welcomed us at the airport until he dropped us off in Colombo, Sampath went above and beyond every single day to make sure our holiday was perfect. He was always punctual, professional, incredibly kind and one of the safest drivers we have ever travelled with. Driving in Sri Lanka can be challenging, but with Sampath behind the wheel we always felt completely relaxed and safe.
What really made him exceptional was his genuine passion for his country. He didn’t just drive us from one hotel to another—he introduced us to the real Sri Lanka. He shared fascinating stories about the history, culture, religions and local traditions, recommended wonderful restaurants, stopped at breathtaking viewpoints and took us to places that we would never have discovered on our own.
He was always happy to adjust our itinerary whenever we wanted to spend more time somewhere, stop for photos, visit a local shop or simply enjoy a beautiful location. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and he always made sure we were comfortable, looked after and enjoying every moment of our trip.
Together we explored Sigiriya, Kandy, Nuwara Eliya, Ella, Yala, Mirissa, Bentota and Colombo, creating memories that will stay with us forever. Even when we experienced a few hotel issues during our holiday, Sampath remained positive, supportive and did everything he could to help us and make the situation easier. His kindness and calm attitude meant more to us than words can express.
Beyond being an outstanding driver, Sampath became a friend. His warm smile, positive energy and infectious laugh brightened every day of our journey, and saying goodbye at the end of the trip was genuinely emotional. We already miss him.
Sri Lanka is a truly beautiful country, but people like Sampath are what make it unforgettable. He is a wonderful ambassador for his country and for Lanka Safe Tours.
We would recommend Lanka Safe Tours without hesitation to anyone visiting Sri Lanka. And if you have the opportunity, request Sampath as your driver—you will be incredibly lucky. He turned a wonderful holiday into an unforgettable experience, and we will always be grateful for everything he did for us.
Thank you, Sampath. We hope to return to Sri Lanka one day, and when we do, we hope to travel with you again.

Absolutely amazing
We had an excellent experience with Lanka Safe Tours during our two week trip around Sri Lanka. From the moment we arrived until we reached Colombo, everything was organised professionally and ran fairly smoothly.
A special thank you to our driver, Sampath, who was outstanding throughout the journey. He was always punctual, friendly, courteous and drove safely, which made us feel completely at ease on Sri Lanka’s busy roads. His knowledge of the country was invaluable and he recommended some fantastic places to visit along the way, including hidden gems that we would never have found ourselves. He was also very flexible, happily adapting our itinerary whenever we wanted to make an extra stop or spend more time somewhere.
Thanks to Sampath, we experienced the very best of Sri Lanka, from Sigiriya and Kandy to Ella, Yala, Mirissa, Bentota and Colombo. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and his warm personality made the trip even more enjoyable. We will miss his infectious laugh.
We would highly recommend Lanka Safe Tours to anyone visiting Sri Lanka, and if you have the opportunity, ask for Sampath as your driver. He truly helped make our holiday unforgettable.

Amazing accommodation
Beningborough is a 4 bed, 4 bath house on the outskirts of Middleham, North Yorkshire. It is ideal for 4 couples, as the bedrooms are all en suite. There are 2 lounges with spectacular views over the valley. The kitchen is very well equipped with an adjacent dining room, also with excellent views. There is plenty of parking and local busses serve nearby towns. There are several pubs nearby, which serve excellent food. We had a wonderful time and were so impressed that we have booked to come again next year.

Experience for yourself the beautiful country of Sri Lanka with Prasanna and Sri Lankan Safe Tours.
We had our 17 day tour of Sri Lanka. Our driver and guide was Prasanna from Sri Lankan Safe Tours. Our car was very roomy and comfortable with good aircon. Prasanna greeted us every day with a big smile full of enthusiasm to make sure our day would be special. We felt very comfortable with Prasanna’s driving and experience. Our accommodation was very comfortable with Prasanna organising check-ins and delivering our luggage. The food was amazing. We experienced the diversity of the country from city, mountains and beaches. Prasanna has wonderful local knowledge and was very patient and prepared to adapt to our needs. Prasanna took many photos for us which helped record our experiences. We would highly recommend Prasanna and Sri Lankan Safe Tours for a comprehensive, relaxed, informative and safe way to experience Sri Lanka and its wonderful scenery, history and people.

Fantastic trip around Sri Lanka, with the sweetest guide 😊
Can you do anything but give this tour and Kavi, our all through excellent guide, 5 stars. No, you can't.
We have had 14 fantastic days in Sri Lanka, together with Kavi. From our arrival and the journey around from Højlandet to the coast, we have experienced a lot of cute people, got a lot of fantastic experiences.
If you want something extraordinary, it's arranged. This is our first trip to Sri Lanka and when we come back, we will definitely grab the Lanka Tours and Kavi again 😃
Great recommendation from here.

Excellent experience
We have had a wonderful 2 weeks tour with our guide Thassa, driver Amila and assistant Sampath. They were all very helpful and respectful, and we could trust their judgement and experience during our entire tour, despite the difficult situation and floods happening in the country.
They have always found good alternative solutions. We can highly recommend their services in the beautiful country of Sri Lanka.

All’s well that ends well from a well run organisation and brilliant driver/guide.
We arrived on 27th November for the start of our 10 day tour just as the Cyclone was about to do its damage. We met our driver Prasanna at the airport exactly as arranged and were transferred to our first hotel. Unfortunately, the Cyclone disrupted our planned schedule but Prasanna skilfully re-arranged our itinerary. Prasanna maintained a positive and enthusiastic approach to what was essentially a disrupted trip due to the damage caused so many of the areas we had planned to visit. He was never short of ideas as to what else we could do. He saved our trip! Prasanna is also very knowledgeable and answered the numerous questions we had, not only about the areas we visited but also general things about the country.
We cannot recommend this organisation enough.

Fabulous tour - highly recommended!
From our first contact Lanka Safe Tours were excellent. We wanted to do the traditional tour route in reverse order so we could start at a beach resort in Mirissa as we were travelling on to the Maldives. This was not a problem and easily accommodated.
Our guide and driver on the tour was Prasanna.
Prasa was excellent- knowledgeable and very accommodating to requests and suggestions. His English was great, which made life easier. He was very flexible with the itinerary which was essential to avoid any tropical rain showers so as to get the best from every place we visited.
He navigated us safely through the hectic Sri Lankan traffic in his comfortable air conditioned vehicle. Water was provided throughout. He was even prepared to suffer our Spotify playlists via Bluetooth on the vehicle’s tablet. We could also share his WiFi.
Both company and driver highly recommended for their 5 star performance!
Thank you so much for such an amazing holiday!
