Buddhima is a very attentive host. She showed us a very nice foodcourt and took us to the market and the oldest bakery in town. Her english is perfect, so we did not have to refrase a lot , this made it a very comfortabel experience.

Kandy with Buddhima
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Kandy with Buddhima. She was an outstanding guide. From our initial communications and meeting arrangements to the actual tour, the organization was perfect. She kindly accommodated our requests and patiently answered all our questions. As we had combined two tours we go to spend the whole day with her, we learnt all about the culture and history of the city, saw hidden gems off the beaten track and tasted the most delicious food and explored the local markets. A day to remember!

Holiday Highlight!
Our street food tour with Buddhima was wonderful. Buddhima is so lovely, generous and knowledgeable, it was like spending the evening with a good friend. Buddhima introduced us to lots of different foods, answered all our many questions, and shared so much about life in Sri Lanka. She also gave us some great tips for the rest of our trip. If we return to Kandy we would definitely do the tour again - there is always more food to discover - and we would recommend Buddhima as a guide without hesitation.
