5.00Had an amazing day with Nadith exploring Matale Hindu Temple, Spice Garden, Dambulla, and finishing at Sigiriya. He shared fascinating stories, showed us local spices, and patiently answered all our questions—even those beyond the tour. Highly recommend him for an unforgettable Sri Lanka experience!

5.00We recently visited Sri Lanka and had the absolute pleasure of exploring the country with our tour guide, Nadith. With his excellent English and spot-on appreciation for our Aussie sense of humour, he made every moment fun and engaging. From walking up Sigiriya Rock and visiting stunning temples, to the unforgettable train journey from Kandy to Ella, safari adventures, and the beauty of Ravana Falls – Nadith made sure everything ran smoothly. His local knowledge and insights added so much depth to each experience, and we genuinely enjoyed his company every step of the way. If you’re planning a trip to Sri Lanka, we can’t recommend Nadith highly enough. He’s not only professional and knowledgeable, but also great fun to travel with!
Great tour

5.00This tour was great, Nadith was an excellent guide and made me feel at ease even though I was just by myself. He was very flexible with times and visits and made sure to tell me all about Sigiriya Rock and Dambulla Caves! He even helped me by dropping me off at a station I needed to be at afterwards too. I would definitely recommend this tour.

5.00Our Itinerary, starting from Kandy: • Sri Muthumariamman Hindu Temple • Spice Garden (Though not part of the original plan, it was nice. We learned about indigenous plants, and there was absolutely no pressure to make any purchases. We spent about 30 minutes there.) • Sigiriya • Pidurangala Rock • Dambulla Royal Cave Temple By the time the trip was booked, Nadith would reach out via WhatsApp to ensure all our questions were answered. The day we started at 8:30am, it was gloomy, with rain pouring down in buckets. I was nearly convinced we’d have to skip Sigiriya, but I was so grateful that Nadith didn’t suggest canceling the plan due to the weather. Just as we entered the Sigiriya entrance, the clouds began to clear, and the weather gradually improved as we climbed. It was as if the day had decided to turn around in our favor. Thank you, Nadith, for keeping the spirits high and encouraging us to go forward despite the storm! Nadith shared with me that even in the rain, he had brought other clients to Sigiriya and they still climbed it, as the tickets aren’t exactly cheap (though, of course, you could opt out if you really wanted to). His dedication was evident! Throughout the day, Nadith was thoughtful, approachable, and incredibly knowledgeable. I gained a deep understanding of Sri Lanka’s rich history as we explored each site together. What a truly unforgettable day! A big thank you to Nadith for making it all so special!
Highly recommended!

5.00Our guide Nadith was incredibly informative and knowledgeable! Communication 10/10, pickup on time, and we received _lots_ of information about the sites, their history and the religious aspects and details of the temple. He also did the extra mile to accommodate a brief stop to the pharmacy and toilet. Highly recommended!
