We had a wonderful day thanks to Deshan. We asked to go walking, maybe a little bird watching, some nice quiet places out from Kandy town. He came up with an excellent day of interesting walks. We also got to see some out of the way temples that had stunning views, and saw birds and animals we weren't expecting. A lovely man and an excellent guide. Highly recommended. Personalised day tour

From the moment Deshan picked us up in Sri Lanka, we knew we were in excellent hands. He helped us design a fantastic few days in Sri Lanka and adjusted along the way based on our requests. He was so helpful and answered all our questions. Highly recommend for any trip to Sri LankaOutstanding Experience

We went on a daytrip together in Kandy. Since he is super friendly, super knowledgeable and his English is perfect.. we were able to discover the real Sri Lanka. He learned us so much about Sri Lankan culture, food and religion. He took us to places (hidden gems like unknown temples) we would never visited ourselves. Most important for us is that he was able to give us the context we needed and was able to answer all our questions. Really recommend going on a trip with Deshan! Deshan is the perfect guide!

When I booked my private tour with Deshan I was a little bit anxious to be in a car for two days with one person. Within a few seconds my anxiety disappeared when we met for the first time. Deshan is open, friendly en easy going. I really enjoyed my trip into the mountains from Kandy to Ella. Deshan knows his stuff. Really nice spots to visite and to eat. What struck me that he's very involved with you as a person, wants you to feel safe en just enjoy your trip en relax. And not to forget the knowledge of good Sri Lankan food places!2 Days trip from Kandy to Ella

Deshan has been the best guide I have ever met. He was so helpful and considerate. I was travelling alone and he made me feel at home and answered all my questions about Sri Lanka. He was very flexible and reliable and a great guy all round. Thank you Deshan!Wonderful Tour with a fantastic guide

Our two days with Deshan were by far the highlight of our trip to Sri Lanka. He picked us up in Kandy and took us through beautiful scenery, waterfalls, and stops as we headed to our ultimate destination in Ella. This included a perfectly timed and fun train ride. He took care of absolutely everything. Including arranging a stay at a really well-located hotel in Ella with the absolute most incredible view. We only wished we would have stayed longer! (I recommend you do this in 2 nights...much more to do) The hike on day 2 was one of the nicest hikes we have done. A bit tough on the incline, but totally doable. Nothing crazy hard. But most important to note, Deshan was hands down the best tour guide we had in Sri Lanka, and one of the best throughout our numerous travels. He was very nice, fun, answered our million and one questions on Sri Lanka and religion/history. I couldn't recommend him enough! We will definitely reach out to Deshan when we come back to Sri Lanka. Especially because we realized how much more we have to see...and we were here a full month!Most memorable day in Sri Lanka...

We had a brilliant time with Deshan. He went above and beyond. From meeting us early so we could have the best time in each location, to taking us to the most delicious restaurants. Deshan knows and loves his country. Always smiling and laughing. Happy to let us take a million pictures and wait for us to swim in the waterfall area. Top guide and now friend. You will not be disappointed with experience. Excellent tour
