Tour of Kandy

Buddhima provided a fascinating into Kandy, showing not only the tourist highlights but sharing an insight into aspects of the city we would not have discovered. Buddhima was an excellent guide, who was keen to tailor the day to our needs. The day was informative but also fun. We very much enjoyed Buddhima's company. Highly recommended.

Passionate, knowledgeable and great fun

Buddhima was the perfect guide for an afternoon in Kandy. We had so much fun in her company and she went above and beyond to ensure we saw and experienced as much of Kandy as possible. Buddhima’s knowledge of the history and culture of Sri Lanka was extensive and she gave us a fascinating insight into the Buddhist and Hindu cultures. We made a number of food and drink stops during the tour. Everything we tasted was delicious, especially the milk tea and dosas. We would not hesitate to recommend Buddhima, she is excellent company and is very passionate about her country. She deserves all of her 5 star reviews. Many thanks Buddhima, we had a fantastic time

The Perfect Kandy Companion!

To explain just how wonderful Buddhima is, I’ll first address her personality and then our particular tour. Buddhima has one of those joyful, engaging personalities that makes any activity that much better. She takes her job seriously, adapted multiple times, and enthusiastically shared information on anything we wanted to know. We knew we were in for a treat when, after apologizing for lunch delay that would push back our meetup, Buddhima showed up at the dosai, and brought a treat for our 20-month old! That extraordinary effort continued throughout the tour, as she showed us a traditional performance that we learned had closed during covid, but she knew if it and that it reopened 2-weeks ago! I could go on about the Buddhist temple we visited off the beaten path, and the vegan ice-cream journey she helped us on, but I’d suggest you’d be better off booking her and getting to experience both a wonderful time and a wonderful person!

Perfect visit!

We are very happy of this private guided tour! Buddhima has a great knowledge of the city of Kandy and it was very interesting to discover different places such as nice place to try Sri Lankan food, sacred places (temple of the tooth, cave temple, Buddha statue…) and nice point of view. She was very helpful and her smile brings joy. Thanks a lot 🙏🏼💐 Alice and Jo French: Nous sommes vraiment ravis d’avoir pu profiter de cette visite guidée. Buddhima connaît très bien la ville de Kandy et c’était vraiment intéressant de découvrir plein d’endroits différents comme de bonnes adresses pour manger local, les endroits sacrés comme le temple de la dent, le temple sous la grotte, l’immense statue de Bouddha et les plus beaux points de vue. Elle nous a beaucoup aidé et son sourire donne du baume au cœur. Un grand merci 🙏🏼💐 Alice et Jo
