5.00We had an amazing hike at **Menengai Crater on 23rd March with Guru Grandview Expedition. Everything was well planned and organized, making the trip smooth and stress-free. The guide was very friendly, patient, and knowledgeable, making sure everyone kept up and enjoyed the experience. The whole trip had great vibes and was worth every moment. Definitely a reliable and professional tour company—highly recommend!

5.00One of the best experiences done in Sri Lanka. The hike is of medium intensity but it has been made easy by the guide. Once reached the top we enjoyed a breathtaking sunrise while sipping a cup of tea and eating typical Sri Lankan breakfast. If you book please look for Induwara and Tyron!
After climbing Sigiriya Rock, this is the next place!

5.00It's harder than climbing Sigiriya Rock. However, the climbing time is about 20-30 minutes. We also had the luxury of sandwiches and tea while waiting for sunrise. As it got brighter, it was quite nice to see Sigiriya Rock hazy in the clouds. It was inspiring.

Amazing Pidurangala rock climbing experience

5.00We did the BOB pidurangala rock climb and it was spectacular! Apart from the amazing view, we had a very good guide who explained the history of the rock while we were climbing. Once we reached the top of the rock, we were treated to a nice picnic with some great food! The climb was very exciting and we also saw Sigiriya rock midway. We also did the boat ride activity from the same company and it was as good! Highly recommend BOB if you’re looking for activities in Sigiriya.
