Amazing

Published on Feb, 2025

Buddhika made a trip perfect, he took us to spices garden, Sigiriya, Pidurangala, helped to climb the big rocks, lunch and village experience was awesome, also we went to safari, Buddhika was very thoughtful and even got us water for this. From start to finish, everything was well-organized. On the way back when it was late evening already and we were tired, Buddhika asked what we are going to do with dinner, we asked to stop by the shop to get something, he waited for us and then took to the hotel what we really appreciated. Very personalized approach, if you ask for something Buddhika is trying to do his best. We couldn't have asked for a better guide. Thanks again for such a memorable day. I'd like to sincerely thank you for making our visit to Sigiriya such a fantastic experience!

Sigiriya Day Trip

A great day trip with Buddhika to 3 wonderful locations. Buddhika is a very friendly guy and i was especially impressed with his knowledge of all 3 locations and of the history related to them.

Fabulous tour with our professional guide

Published on Jan, 2025

Buddhika was fabulous. Very courteous, knowledgeable, accomodating and friendly. He’s very responsive on WhatsApp and catered the tour to what we wanted. We also bumped into each other the following day and he was so kind and friendly. Highly recommend. Thanks Buddhika!

Arrived to a guide, left with a new friend!

We booked Buddhika for three days of tours during our stay in Kandy and from beginning to end he proved to be invaluable. He was easy to communicate with in advance of our arrival and responded to our queries very quickly. He was also excellent at suggesting sites to visit and advise us on how we could tailor our tours. Day one began with Buddhika meeting us at the train station and conveying us to our hotel, The Trees, Kandy (see separate review). Later that day we continued with a tour around the Tooth Relic Temple followed by a cultural show. Proving incredibly knowledgeable on the subject, Buddhika guided us through the temple complex explaining in great detail the history of it while also ensuring we didn't commit any tourist faux pas. Day two kicked off with journeying to Nuwara Eliya or "Little England" that was a hill country retreat where British colonialists could escape the heat and immerse themselves in their pastimes such as fox hunting, deer hunting, polo, golf and cricket. These days it is known for its waterfalls and tea plantations and Buddhika ensured we saw both as requested whilst also chatting to us throughout the journey. Day three began with a very early 7am start but yet again Buddhika was punctual and ready & waiting for us at our hotel to take us to our next requested tour, The Elephant Freedom Project (see separate review). Incredibly friendly, Buddhika proved to be a superb guide, safe driver and brilliant conversationalist with our chats covering a wide range of topics including food, local culture, history, economics and politics. We enjoyed his company immensely and have booked him to guide us around again when we return next year. Would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fantastic tour guide!

Amazing Trip

Published on Aug, 2024

While browsing through Tripadvisor, I found this trip. I booked late in the night. The next morning I called Buddhika and was picked up from Kandy Central. Buddhika was warm, welcoming and knowledgeable. His knowledge about the country, Buddhism and culture was immense. Our conversation started with cricket continued till economics, history, religion and food. We had an amazing breakfast on the way to Sigiriya. Buddhika was also my tour guide for Sigiriya rock. He explained me the history as we started exploring the Sigiriya rock and surroundings. He took me a to a local rice n curry place for lunch which was fab. He was kind enough to take me to the local market on my request. Then we visited the Dambulla cave. I had to go for cricket match in Pallekele at 7 PM in the evening. He drove me and dropped near the stadium. Buddhika was a honest, humble and hospitable person as every Srilankan I met in my trip. I highly recommend this trip and Buddhika as a tour guide.
