My husband and I travelled with Bhathi around Sri Lanka - he anticipated all of our wishes on this trip and surprised us with thoughtful touches that went way above and beyond our expectations. He truly delivered on a magical experience.

My wife and I traveled with Bhathi for 11 days, driving from Colombo up to Sigiriya, the central hills, Yala, and the southern beaches. Bhathi was everything you can ask for in a guide: kind, punctual, and informative; quick to offer any combination of historical context, local anecdotes, and personal stories; and thoughtful with a personal touch. For best results: get in touch early, and work together to plan your perfect trip. Bhathi's full of great recommendations, but if you do some research ahead of time and work out some clear priorities, he'll work with you to craft a truly personalized experience.

We had the most incredible trip exploring Sri Lanka. From the very beginning, Bhathyia was exceptionally kind, friendly, and always went out of his way to care for us. It felt like we were traveling with a friend who genuinely wanted us to have the best time. The itinerary he planned was fantastic and showed us the very best of the country. We experienced so much variety, from stunning landscapes and beautiful beaches to seeing amazing animals on safari. We also explored fascinating historical sites and even got to do some snorkeling. Every activity was interesting and perfectly organized. If you are planning a trip to Sri Lanka, I cannot recommend Bhathyia enough. He gave our family an unforgettable adventure and memories we will cherish forever. Thank you for everything, Bhathyia

We have just returned from a 12-day tour of Sri Lanka with Bhathiya and the experience has been fantastic. We highly recommend it as a guide. From the beginning, he proved to be a great professional. He is a very prudent and safe driver, something that is greatly appreciated on Sri Lankan roads, and his car was always spotless. Bhathiya has a deep knowledge of the history and culture of his country and shares it in a very enjoyable way. It took us to amazing places, both the best-known and local gems that we wouldn’t have discovered on our own, including some places to eat wonderfully. He is also a very friendly, patient and flexible person. He adapted to our pace smoothly and was always attentive to what we needed, with a smile. Thanks to him, our trip was comfortable, interesting and very complete. If you are looking for a guide in Sri Lanka, feel free to contact Bhathiya. A sure hit.

A friend recommended Bathiya tours and it was really worth it. In our case there were 3 of us, and I think the fact of going with Bathi as a driver and guide with his car was the best way to visit the island. The car very comfortable and he very good driver in the chaos of traffic in urban areas. Besides Bathi has always been super vigilant about us and has everything very well organized. He is also very polite and patient. So the best rating for him. As for the island, really spectacular!!! Colorful fish, temples, elephants, traditions, culture, birds, local food, religion, beaches, bustling markets, etc... for all tastes!! The only thing that would change from the route proposed by Bathi would be the hotel in Trincomalee, the rest quite well, suitable for the price of the trip. In short, a trip to save for sempre in our memory! Enric

We visited from UK /Canada especially for our children to connect with their roots, learn about their heritage, and engage with the culture, people, and environment of their ancestral home. Bhatia tours took us on a tour of historical cities, sacred Buddhist and Hindu temples in Anuradhapura, Trincomalee, Polonnaruwa, Kandy, Kathirkamam and Galle. Bhatia organised the tour flexible to our needs efficiently and seamlessly, personally made sure we are comfortable at all places and looked after us like his family. We also climbed Sigiriya, went on the scenic train journey from Nanuoya to Ella and safaried at Yala. The tour was an unforgettable experience of motherland and family reunion .

Our 12 days with Bhathi have been amazing. His attention to detail when creating the itinerary is exceptional and I can’t believe how much we have been packed in. Bhathi is such good company and nothing is too much trouble for him, he’s become a very good friend in such a short space of time. Sri Lanka is a beautiful country and offers so much, stunning scenery, wildlife, food, beaches and was the perfect place for our honeymoon. We have not had to worry about anything during our stay and it’s been so relaxing thanks to Bhathi’s expert knowledge and organisation. The trip has exceeded all expectations and we’ve learned so much - we can’t wait to come back!

Bhati has been exceptional. We had plenty of communication leading up to the holiday, it was a big trip so wanted to make sure we had everything and Bhati always replied promptly which was reassuring. He provided a solid itinerary that we were very happy with, and everything went smoothly. We've also learnt so much more about Sri Lanka that we thought we would, Bhati has a wealth of knowledge and my wife and I have had the perfect honeymoon, and it couldn't have been any better and we honestly can not thank him enough.
