5.00We made a trip with Indika from Kandy to Ambewela train station. Indika is an excellent driver. He got us tickets for the train to Ella and picked out the best seats for us on the train. Unfortunately, due to the low water level, it did not work out with a swim at the falls. We can recommend Indika without restriction. Thank you Indika
amazing

5.00He is truly a nice and friendly person, always making sure we were comfortable throughout the trip. He took us to all the popular tourist spots as well as a few hidden gems we wouldn’t have found on our own. His guidance, patience, and helpful attitude made our experience even better. Highly recommended — definitely a 10/10 service.
