Chamara was very knowledgeable about the Sinharaja forest and its environs. He guided me to view several waterfalls inside the Sinharaja Forest. He also helped me negotiate several slippery rocks at different places of the day tour. Chamars is young and enthusiastic about nature and its preservation for humanity. I found my day tour to be educational and intellectually rewarding, and this was partly due to the unique beauty of this forest, as well as Chamara's assistance.
Great Day for rainforest

We had an awesome all day experience. We saw lots of different birds, snakes, lizards and monkeys. The tour was totally worth every penny. We got homemade lunch and a nature loving guide who truly lives for his job. Can only recommend, thank you for the experience

We did a one day trek trough the Sinharaja Rainforest with our Guide Chamara. With Chamara eyes and a second guide from the rainforest reserve we had the chance to spot many animals like snakes, lizards, monkeys and learned a lot about the flora and fauna of Sinharaja and Sri Lanka. We had lunch next to a waterfall where we had a dip aswell. Thanks for the great company and professional guidance! Hope to meet you again it was an amazing experience ☺️

That was so cool! We were looking forward to this tour since the reviews were so good. But it was even 1.000 times better! We saw many animals and got lunch from our guide‘s mom. We were able to see his love to nature. His knowledge about the animals is impressive. So I would recommend this to everyone who loves nature as well! :)
Simply said: amazing
