Although there was problem communicating the driver but a new replacement was done n we could visit the most precious monuments of the city - like - Gangaramana temple, war memorial, floating market, lotus tower , Red mosque n most famous crockery shops like NORITAKE n Dankotuwa…
Had a great experience with Travceylon. It was very convenient and hassle free. The car was in good condition and comfortable. The driver Christ was always punctual and professional. He had great connections everywhere and even helped us with places to visit. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a private tour in Sri Lanka
