Excellent services! - Thanks to Prasad and his team, had a wonderful experience. Used their service for kandy to ella train ticket and two road journies in SriLanka. Reserved Tickets on Kandy to Ella train during peak season is difficult to book on your own so would highly recommend using their services. Not only we were promised a reserved seat, but we also got the 1st ac that we wanted. Please have patience as the hard copy ticketsget delivered in the end. On the road journey also, both the cars & drivers were good and the price reasonable and slightly lower as compared to the other agents that we checked with. Overall a must recommend using their services!

Great day out on a fantastic journey - Fantastic train journey from Colombo Fort station to Kandy.We spent 3 hours in Kandy and returned.Will write about Kandy in another review.You need to book for the best seats but i dont think it really matters where you sit.About halfway you travel through what seems a rain forest. A really good day out.

would recommend - This was so much easier than going to the station in person to get a ticket. They deliver it to your hotel or place of stay the day before, you can get it at will call at the station but I honestly preferred having it delivered. Communication was great with Geesara through whatsapp. To get home, unfortunately because of the holiday weekend there weren't tickers available after I had already paid. they notified me via whatsapp and arranged for their driver to drive me to Colombo at a very affordable price. Driver Dilshan was awesome. Things don't always go according to plan when traveling so you have to be flexible about that, I'm glad they got me to where I needed to go despite the set back.

train Colombo to Kandy - I booked tickets via Trip Advisor two weeks before travelling to sri lanka to take a train from Colombo to Kandy. However on the day i was contacted and told that the train was full and I would need to go on a later train. This was not possible as I had a long journey from Kandy to my hotel so had to take a taxi instead. I am still waiting for my refund form Trip Advisor.
