Avoid buying GEMS - was scammed! Hidden costs!

Driver is very nice and accommodating. UNFORTUNATELY, the Moonstone Gem Shop scammed me and my friends. We spend $3850 buying “Sapphire” and Stones. Took it back to Colombo. It was not sapphire at all! The so called, white sapphires at the side of the rings are something else. Bought a rainbow sapphire ring, only ruby was real. The rest was not sapphire or even emerald! Hidden cost! $40 for turtle sanctuary (2 pax) $50 for boat ride. All in all - disappointed with the tour. Driver Glen is good!
Wonderful experience

An unforgettable day in Galle thanks to Glen! We loved every moment - from the heartwarming turtle sanctuary and exciting boat safari to watching the iconic stilt fishermen in action. Glen, our great guide and driver, made the trip even better with his friendly vibe, smooth driving, and great local tips. Everything was perfectly organised, stress-free, and so much fun. Absolute 5-star experience!

This was a very nice tour, but also very long due to the distance from the port. Overall it was good, except that the boat ride safari, in our opinion is not worth the cost or the time. Very little is seen. Also recommend that for additional costs not included in the price of the tour, information be provided in the tour description and identify where credit card is not accepted, so that sufficient cash is available.

If you limited for time and wish to discover sri lanka this is ideal tour. Whilst a couple of areas we could have spent more time in, it gaves us a good insight to those sights.

Bidu is amazing! We saw everything and he was so accommodating. He’s a fabulous driver and did not stop short of making sure that we had an amazing day. We highly recommend.
