I spent 4 short but enjoyable days in Sri Lanka. Day at beach hotel, Wilpattu national park safari, Sigiriya Lions rock fortress (with kandy city, dance show), and Nuwara Eliya. Sigiriya was amazing! Well worth the 1000 step climb. Prasanna, my guide and driver, was prompt with pickup upon arrival. He gave such a warm welcome that i immediately relaxed and knew i was in good hands. He's funny and very personable. Because it's a private tour, with solo traveler, it's been like riding along with a friend. Prasanna is constantly checking in to make sure I have what I need and am enjoying myself. He organized a wonderful massage for me after I had some body aches. His presence has made Sri Lanka somewhere I will remember fondly forever.
Lanka Safe communication and organization before the tour was good. Planning is flexible and can be whatever a client wants. I decided to just book transport with Lanka Safe, and organized the hotels myself. It was smooth. Communication wasn't as swift after payment but still timely enough. I was surprised that there were no messages prior to my arrival, but my driver was waiting for me at the airport, so it wasn't a problem. Several companies never responded to my inquiries, so I appreciate Lanka Safe being so easy to work with.
Thank you, Prasanna and Lanka Safe Tours for giving me a warm and fun short holiday in Sri Lanka.
