Fantastic day tour! Madu River, Indian ocean, mines, Galle & Sri Lankan culture - The Galle and Bentota Day Tour is so much fun! I was travelling solo and only had 1 day to explore, I felt very safe and taken care of. Mr. Asela showed up on time to my hotel, he is great driver and also fantastic, respectful and kind tourist guide. He took me to so many places and arranged a nice lunch as well. It was a full day filled with many fun visits and things to learn from this beautiful area of Sri Lanka. The tour in the river was fabulous, it is wonderful to visit the communities and learn about their lifestyle. I particularly enjoyed the visit to the moonstone mine and jewels since I love stones! The ocean, the beach and Galle were also very beautiful. Take this tour if you can!

Also a great knowledge of Sri Lanka history.
