  Arun has been so friendly an kind to us during our Tour, I would defenitly go on a Tour with him again. He showed us beautiful Places like the Jaffna Fort, where we watched one of the most beautiful Sunsets I have ever seen. The Food was great and we got to experience a rare Festival at a traditional Tempel, such beautiful colours, people and vibes. Thank you Arun. ☺️

  My partner and I had the best day exploring Jaffna with Arun!! We learnt so much about the Jaffna history, culture and Hinduism throughout the day while visiting various sites. Arun is such a warm, friendly and welcoming guide, which makes you feel like you're exploring Jaffna with an old friend. His deep of knowledge, passion and enthusiasm to connect people with authentic Jaffna experiences really blew us away! We constantly kept asking Arun how do you know all this, it's insane the amount of knowledge he had. He also allowed us to ask as many questions as we wanted..of which I had many! The highlights for us were visiting the Jaffna fort, the jaffna library, wandering through the markets and trying the local sweets and of course Rio's for a delicious ice cream sundae! We truly felt like we got to experience the true Jaffna and got an incredible insight into what life is really like for the locals in Jaffna. A big heartfelt thank you to Arun as this was one of the most memorable experiences during our 5 week trip to Sri Lanka!! ❤️ We also did the traditional Jaffna cooking class with Arun and his mother and we highly recommend it if you're after a traditional, authentic and heartfelt experience!!

  Had a fantastic tour with Arun today, going all around Jaffna on a motorbike to the Nallur Kandaswamy Devasthanam Hindu Temple, the Jaffna Kingdom ruins, the Public Library, and finally the Jaffna Fort at sunset. Arun is incredibly knowledgeable and ready to answer any questions, of which I typically had many. The perfect way to start my time in Jaffna and get an overview of the history here - of Sri Lanka, the Tamil culture, Hinduism, and the recent history of the Civil War. Highly recommend this company!

• Amazing historical and cultural tour of Jaffna

  Arun is a highly knowledgeable and passionate guide. As someone whose roots are in Jaffna but didn’t grow up there I was not aware of the history pre dating colonial times. The tour which was just a day taught me more about our history than I could have imagined and I left feeling closer to Jaffna - historically and culturally. Arun gave detailed explanations of each place we went to whether it be Nallur Temple or Jaffna Fort. Highly recommend this tour and will definitely be recommending this tour to friends and family venturing to Jaffna!

• An incredible holiday

  We had been to Sri Lanka three years ago, but this holiday exceeded all our expectations. We visited Colombo, Trincomalee where we spent 3 days, and another 6 days on our way to and in Jaffna. The last day we enjoyed on the island of Delft. We saw a lot of sights, for which we received an incredibly comprehensive briefing from Arun, which helped us to learn and understand the history of Sri Lanka. We fished, snorkeled, cooked local dishes, visited an amusement park, watched crocodiles and other animals, met local people and admired their customs, and did many other activities. The whole holiday was well organised, the accommodation and food were faultless. Arun's English is excellent so you don't have to worry about not understanding anything. I can only recommend Explore Yarl. Thank you very much ! Renata

  Arun was our guide for 2 days on a short tour of Jaffna and completely exceeded our expectations. I was seeking a basic understanding of Jaffna life but what I got was an extensive lecture on the history, culture, politics and geography of the city and the region. He was also very good at showing us the beauty of the region driving us through the islands via causeways and ferries. It was fantastic to have such a knowledgeable guide that enabled us to get the best from the short visit.

  

• Arun our able, knowledgeable and adaptable guide in Jaffna

  My brother (from overseas) and I (Sri Lankan) visited the Jaffna peninnsula and were fortunate to have Arun as our guide. We weren't the typical tourists and rather than visit tourist spots, wanted to interact and get a deep understanding of the culture and lifestyle of the people. Arun understood our requirement and adapted with ease. His knowledge was far beyond what we expected. It was insightful and enriching. We were very satisfied and happy with Arun as our able, knowledgeable and adaptable guide.
