Great tour with Prasad

Great day with Prasad as a guide who showed us the jewels of Galle. Very great guiding qualities with many explanations of the history of Galle and Sri Lanka. I absolutely recommend this tour, which has the best value for Viator's price.

Highly Recommend!

We went on a day trip with Prasad and he made it a memorable one for us! He took us to Galle Fort, a Turtle Rehabilitation Centre and a Tea plantation factory. He had good knowledge of all places and provided a lot of interesting facts about other things and places along the way as well. He was a very professional guide and knew what he was talking about. The icing on the cake is he even takes great photos (insta-worthy!) too. 😊 If you're visiting Sri Lanka, go ahead and book Prasad's service without a second thought.

Great tour of Galle!

This was such a great tour! I was able to see and learn so much about Galle. Going to Jungle Beach was also fun and a hidden gem. Seeing the stilt fishermen and touching turtles was a joy. Seranath was a great tour guide. He was friendly, informative and fun to be around. I highly recommend this tour.

Great Day Trip - Don’t Miss This One

Lucky me … booking this on a whim the day before. Prasad was early to pick me up. Very professional. No gimmicks - he only wants the best for his guests. Prasad has a great love and passion for his country, this is clear in his humble and genuine interactions. He’s very knowledgeable and no question was left unanswered. Tea plantation, beautiful scenery, king coconuts … I got to hold a baby turtle….and much more. I would 100% recommend him.

Excellent guide & interesting sites: A great tour to explore Galle!

We had a great day with Prasad! A relaxed & informative tour that covered a variety of different sites in the Galle region. We explored Galle Fort, tasted various teas (& cake!) at the Handunugoda Tea Estate, took in the stunning view at Rumassala, saw Sea Turtles up close and Stilt Fishermen. Prasad has an excellent knowledge of Sri Lanka’s flora, fauna & local culture, which he happily imparts throughout the tour - we learnt a lot! I highly recommend Prasad as a guide for a fun, relaxed and happy day.
