Amazing Day Trip - This experience will go down as the most memorable thing I have ever done. Our expectations were exceded throughout. For a short trip to Sri Lanka we were able to cross several items off the itinerary in one day. You will NOT be disappointed. The biggest reason for that is all thanks to Vidhu. He by far is the most genuine, sweetest, considerate person I have ever encountered. He made my dream come true of encountering an elephant. He went above and beyond providing me a birthday cake to sing happy birthday whilst having our elephant encounter. He provided us with awesome pit stops along the way with fresh coconut water, we even got to encounter with porcupines(how cool)! He didn't stop there, he even helped coordinate our next trip out of Kandy and provided recommendations for other items on my itinerary. This man deserves a medal. 5 stars for this whole experience. If I can ever come back to Sri Lanka I would choose this all over again.

Great tour and driver - We thoroughly enjoyed this trip, there were lots of opportunities to purchase souvenirs and we saw monkeys and even a tortoise which we were not expecting. Our driver Shaminda, was very friendly and expertly navigated the local traffic. Highly recommended.

Beautiful Trip with family - Just back from a day trip to Kandy with Vidu. Had an amazing time. Absolutely appreciate how accomodative Vidu is especially when you are travelling with your family and a 4 year old kid. He is very patient, waits until you have a good look at the places and offers to take pictures for you which is wonderful. He does not hurry the trip and keeps it very flexible based on your interest. My daughter wanted to play in the beach and he was gracious to stop on the way just to let her play in the water & waited very patiently until she was done. Basolutely loved everything about the trip and would reccomend to everyone traveling to Srilanka! Thank you Vidu :)

We saw so much in one day! - Vidoo was so considerate and thoughtful, meeting us with leis at the cruise terminal gate. On the way to kandy, he stopped to buy us a king coconut and red bananas which were great. He bought us flowers which were the national flower to give as an offering at the temple of the relic tooth. Vidoo met us at the gate of the botanical gardens and then went to get the car. We also drove around kandy lake and went to a tea factory and spice garden. We ate at nice buffet that had a beautiful view of a river. Vidoo is a skillful driver and we highly recommend him.

The perfect personalized tour! - I originally signed up for this tour because it included places I wanted to visit, but the tour guide explained other highlights and gave me priority to experience those activities if I was interested. The tour guide was always cheerful and witty and gave me many new experiences. I am a woman traveling alone and do not speak much English, but I was able to enjoy the tour without any worries.
