Great tour, great guides
Great tour through the city with a beautiful beach stop. Rosie was a wonderful guide and her helper and driver did a fantastic job. We felt safe touring with them and they did a great job keeping the time and getting us back to the port in plenty of time. We spent just enough time at each spot in the city. The van was nice and air conditioned and they also provided us with cold water. The restaurant at the beach had great food. A little pricier, but it is at a resort so we expected that. It was a beautiful beach and not over crowded since it was at a resort. Would definitely recommend this tour.

Best way to.learn the history of Galle
Our guide Madawa met us early and was well spoken, polite and a very good guide. He showed us the key points and explained the history og the old fort city as we walked. I recommend this tour to anyone who wants to learn about the fascinating history of this UNESCO listed city.

Turtles!
I have been a scuba diver for many years but never had an experience like this before. We were lucky and swam with 3 Green Turtles at once. Warm, calm water, sunny skies combined with excellent service by the staff made it an experience to remember. Highly recommended for all.

Excellent cycling tour...
Excellent cycling tour from a very friendly team at Chameera cycling, who also arranged all the stops and payments throughout the tour so it was interesting but relaxed. Beautiful scenery and a nice refreshment stop too - would highly recommend the morning tour for wildlife (& weather)!

Great fun at the falls!
This was a truly wonderful experience. The driver that picked us up explained what to expect and made sure we were set up with a guide on arrival. The guides were conscientious about the pace of the hike and stopped for rest every five to seven minutes. The hike is strenuous if you are not in average condition. The slides and jumps were great fun! Second to last is the best. The buffet was tasty and plentiful. I would definitely do this again.

Pilots Whales Fest
Well organised trip which my partner and I would recommend.
We left the jetty and headed out to sea just after 6am with the sun coming up. For 2 hours we chugged out to sea and then went down the coast heading east without seeing a thing. 3 or 4 people around us were pretty badly seasick even though it was very calm sea conditions.
People were starting to get a bit bored when suddenly the captain started excitedly pointing up ahead where the sea was now seemingly full of Pilot Whales! They were everywhere both sides of the boat, you didn’t know where to look!
Dolphins then also appeared some leaping clear of the water.
It was a great experience, even seeing a very large turtle on the return to the harbour.
Only negative thing was that we didn’t see a Blue Whale which I really hoped we would,
However they are fairly elusive so I guess you have to be very lucky to see one of those.

Unique fun experience, would recommend!
Great experience! The tour was perfect. Pickup from the cruise port was easy. Transportation just as described. I travelled with my family of 6, 3 being under the age of 18. The hike was easily manageable and the guides stopped multiple times to allow those that needed it to rest. Slides and jumps were safe with guides to help all along the way. Woudl 100% recommend.

You won’t feel like a tourist!
Lo and Ant took me around to various parts of the island. I was banks to see the mountains, woods, villages and beaches of the dr with a great guide. Finished off the day with an awesome ride out to a great animal exhibit that you should never pass up! One of the few excursions I didn’t feel like a tourist and felts a true experience!

Amazing wildlife and great guide!
Amazing while day Safari! Our guide was friendly, fun, knowledgeable and went above and beyond to take us around the park. He even worked one hour over time to show us 2 leopards at the end of the day. He showed respect for the wildlife and we got to come up close with several elephants. We had a 2 hour lunch break from 12-2pm when the park is closed where he served delicious home cooked srilankan curry. Memories of a lifetime.

Well worth the effort and great service
I initially thought we would join a larger tour group but it turned out to be a private tour with a car, driver and our own tour guide Sachi. Super service overall, despite the early pickup due to us staying in Galle. Sachi was very patient with us, answered a lot of our questions about the sites and even took a lot of great pictures of my wife and I. We visited all the sites exactly as advertised, was timed perfectly to beat the crowds and capped it off with a lovely meal at a local restaurant near the Elephant reserve. Would definitely recommend the tour and especially with Sachi as the guide.

Beautiful ATV ride
We had so much fun. Alfonz was a great guide and led us through the beautiful mountains of the DR and stopped by a beautiful beach. I would definitely book with them again. On a side note, at the rest stop we probably would have purchased more if we weren't being pressed. I like to take my time and look at stuff. Not have stuff put in my face. But at the same time I understand why they were. It was a humbling, fun and beautiful experience

Superb wildlife experience
We loved this! Never seen a mangrove forest up close and it felt like an unanticipated bucket-list experience. Our guide Hari was a lovely guy, very knowledgeable about the ecosystem and with a genuine passion for nature. We saw a chameleon, huge monitor lizard, baby crocodiles, and various birds including kingfishers and a sea eagle, and fed mango to some langur monkeys. Absolute bargain at the price. Highly recommended!
