Dagje uit naar Galle [Stilt Fishing. Schildpadden kijken. Kaneelboerderij]

My wife and I were really pleased with our experience. Pradeep (our guide and driver) picked us up at the port of Hambantota (we were on a cruise), and as we had requested we went to visit the city of Galle. Part of the journey was along an excellent (and underused divided highway) then smaller winding roads through interesting villages and small towns. Along the way we opted to visit a cinnamon farm which involved a boat ride to a nearby island. We saw how cinnamon is grown and processed. We also saw some huge monitor lizards at the waterside of the farm. We then proceeded to Galle (a popular surfers destination) and entered the old fort first established by the Portuguese, then the Dutch, and finally the British over a period of about 500 years. The fort area is huge and contains a whole community with various restaurants and hotels. We visited a very old Dutch Reformed church, which is still active. We ate at the Remparts Hotel restaurant overlooking the sea. Excellent food. We got back to our ship in good time. The people we met were wonderful. We were really blessed to have Pradeep as our guide. He speaks excellent English and is easy to understand. He is also very knowledgeable and personable. My wife and I can highly recommend Earth Lanka Day Tours. Indeed, we hope we can make another trip and see more of the country through this wonderful and reliable tour company. C & G Singapore

Pradeep was een fantastische gids. Zijn communicatie daarvoor was perfect. Zelfs de rit naar Galle was gevuld met interessante informatie en vogels en dieren in het wild werden ons gewezen. Alles was perfect georganiseerd, we hadden geen perfectere dag kunnen hebben. Sterk aanbevelen. Ik wou dat we meer tijd hadden om wildlife- of Colombo-tours met Pradeep te doen.

We hebben enorm genoten van onze dagtour met Pradeep en zijn chauffeur, beginnend bij ons cruiseschip en naar Galle. Omdat wij het alleen waren, was Pradeep erg flexibel met het reisschema. Hij heeft een goede kennis van het gebied en alle bezienswaardigheden die er te zien zijn. Het voertuig was schoon en comfortabel en we hadden een smakelijke lunch in het gekozen restaurant. Zou het graag aanbevelen.
