excellent visit of Colombo. I saw a lot in on on day, that was a very nice day!
We (me and my 2 colleagues) had a great Saturday with Nilantha. He picked us up quite early (6:30) so we could get out of Colombo before the worst traffic. After stop for breakfast and coffee we arrived to Madu river. The boat driver was very good and we saw both lizards and monkeys during the tour. The presentation of cinnamon was interesting and so was also the temple. Maybe the best part was the fish therapy "in the river" - or nets in the river. Since we where interested in turtles we asked Nilantha to find a place - which he did. Interesting to hear about the how sea turtles are rescued. After lunch we went to the beach and it felt very nice to be able to have a swim. In the afternoon we walked around in Gaulle fort. During all of the day Nilantha was very positive and always made sure that we where doing what we wanted. He is also a good driver, but the car we had was not his own and there was no belt on the right side in the backseat - that was the only negative thing with all of the day.
We really enjoyed our trip to Galle with Sam. He showed us some really beautiful places. His English is incredible good, that way it was easy for us to communicate. He shared a lot of interesting facts about the country and explained a lot to us. He came with a driver and the car ride was really smooth and save. Our hotel was a bit off the road and he had to travel nearly 200 additional kilometers to pick us up and to bring us home, but it was still very easy to find a way to still make it work with him, to a very reasonable price. If we ever come back to Sri Lanka, we would definitely book him again.
Literally best driver, he driving is calm and easy going after 2 weeks of crazy drivers hhh his driving was so calm I managed to sleep on the way, he will explain about anything you ask and more, he asked us to bring his wife with him and we said yes it was so amazing they’re cute couple and he had someone to take to all the journey as well, we booked the elephant orphanage trip with him and he was so great that we personalize our trip and even after we agreed on everything we change our plans on the same day we decided to stay much longer in the orphanage and to cancel rhe tea factory and the forest, and we didn’t regret it, because we had the chance to feed the elephant and have luch over looking on the elephant in the river and after we bathed the elephant, and after we went to kandy. Amazing day Thnx you very much
