Perfect for exploring: reliable, friendly and very good advice - Sura is an excellent tuk-tuk driver, but also a valuable advisor. He proposes the must-see places to visit while adapting perfectly to your desires: if you already have an itinerary in mind, he will guide you to enjoy it to the best, with advice always relevant. Thanks to him, we even discovered local addresses where to take delicious takeaways in the evening. Besides, his rates are very honest. You can trust him with your eyes closed: Sura is much more than just a driver.

He tells you what is worth it or not, and takes us to very nice places. I also recommended it to my mom who is coming in a few days! He really deserves to have tourists and all this praise. He is a gentleman who has his heart on his hand Thank you for everything, it was one of our best days of the trip Clara and Thibault from France

Sura - the best tuktuk driver of all time - We were absolutely thrilled with Sura. When we arrived in Kandy at 2:00 p.m. by public bus today, we were completely exhausted. Sura immediately helped us with our backpacks as we got off the bus – we didn’t even know at first that he was a tuk-tuk driver. He gave us a little time to arrive and settle ourselves, and then, in a very polite and non-pushy way, asked if we needed a tuk-tuk. Because he was so kind, we immediately said yes, and he took us to our hotel for a very reasonable price. After that, we arranged for him to pick us up again from the hotel, and he ended up spending the whole day with us. He showed us all the cool tourist spots and was incredibly courteous and friendly the entire time. We felt extremely comfortable with him because he is such a genuinely kind-hearted person. He even helped organize our taxi to Ella afterward. We would highly recommend everyone to take a ride with Sura at least once! He is not only the most giving person we’ve ever met, but also the most grateful — something that truly touched our hearts.
