We had the most wonderful experience travelling through Sri Lanka with Asiri as our guide and driver. From the very beginning, he was incredibly friendly, professional, reliable and kind. As Swiss travellers, we especially appreciated his outstanding punctuality, his reliability and the calm, pleasant way he drove. We always felt completely safe and comfortable with him. What made Asiri truly special was how attentive he was. Whenever we had a problem, he helped us immediately and in the best possible way. He gave us great tips, understood our wishes almost before we even said them, and always made sure we were happy and well taken care of. Even in a problem at a hotel, he stayed patient and supportive, which we appreciated very much. Asiri also has a great knowledge of Sri Lankan culture and history. This made our excursions, such as Lion Rock, even more meaningful and interesting, because we learned so much from him along the way. Every morning, the car was perfectly clean and spotless. We truly could not have wished for a better guide and driver. Asiri made our journey through Sri Lanka relaxed, safe, interesting and unforgettable. We are very grateful and can highly recommend him to anyone travelling in Sri Lanka.

In February 2025 we took Detroves on a beautiful 8-day round trip to the cultural highlights of Sri Lanka including two national parks and a train ride from Elyia Nuwara to Ella. The trip was perfectly organized and everything worked out wonderfully. In retrospect, we might have liked a different selection of national parks and would have preferred to visit the Yala NP with a different wildlife instead of the Udawalawe NP. Our German-speaking guide Maik really made the tour a very special experience. In him we had a guide and also driver, with whom we felt well looked after and informed at all times. Maik is a wonderful person who explains a lot, but also knows when there is no need for words. Thank you Maik!!
