• BUDDI THE BEST

  Our trip through Sri Lanka would not have been the same without Buddi. From the moment he picked us up at the airport, everything felt easy, safe and very well organised. He was waiting for us on time, welcomed us with a big smile and immediately gave us the feeling that we were in good hands. Buddi is not only an excellent private driver, but also someone who truly knows and loves his country. His knowledge of Sri Lanka is impressive. He knows the roads, the cities, the cultural places, the natural spots, the best viewpoints, the safest areas and also the places where tourists should be more careful. Throughout the trip, he gave us very useful advice and helped us understand the country much better. What we appreciated a lot was that he planned the journey around what we wanted to do. He did not try to force a fixed itinerary on us. Instead, he listened to our preferences, suggested the best options and helped us build a route that matched our interests. At the same time, he was always flexible. If we changed our mind during the day, wanted to stop somewhere unexpected, spend more time in one place or adjust the plan, Buddi handled it calmly and professionally. His car was also a big part of the comfort of the trip. He drives a very nice, new Toyota that was spotless every day. The car always smelled fresh, was comfortable for long journeys and had plenty of space. It was clear that he takes great care of his vehicle and wants his guests to feel comfortable at all times. His driving was excellent. We always felt safe with him. He drives carefully, smoothly and with a lot of experience. In Sri Lanka, traffic can sometimes feel intense, but with Buddi we never felt worried. He was always focused, calm and professional behind the wheel. Another great thing about Buddi is how connected he is everywhere. In almost every city or place we visited, he seemed to know someone reliable. Because of that, we met good people, received helpful local support and sometimes even got better prices simply because we were with him. This made the whole experience feel more personal and trustworthy. Buddi also has a wonderful personality. He is funny, warm, friendly and very easy to spend time with. He works hard, is disciplined, punctual and extremely organised. Long drives never felt boring because he always created a pleasant atmosphere. He was happy to play good music, talk, laugh or simply let us relax when we needed quiet time. One of the things that made us value him the most was the way he looked after us. He was always available to help, give advice and make sure we were safe. He told us where to be careful, which areas were better to avoid and how to deal with certain situations as tourists. He never just dropped us somewhere and disappeared. If he did not come with us himself, he made sure we were with someone he trusted. His recommendations were also excellent. The restaurants he suggested were some of the best places we ate during the trip, and he also guided us towards beautiful spots and experiences that made our journey even better. His advice always felt honest and based on real local knowledge. Buddi became much more than our driver. He was a guide, a problem-solver, a local friend and someone we trusted completely. Thanks to him, our time in Sri Lanka was smoother, safer and much more enjoyable. I would highly recommend Buddi to anyone looking for a private driver in Sri Lanka. He is reliable, professional, kind, flexible, safe and genuinely committed to giving his guests the best possible experience. We left Sri Lanka with amazing memories, and many of them are connected to him. I would honestly return just to travel with Buddi again and spend more time discovering the country with him.

  I had the absolute pleasure of travelling around Sri Lanka with Buddi as our private driver, and I can honestly say that he made our trip unforgettable from the very first moment. Buddi welcomed us at the airport in the most reliable, warm and professional way. After a long journey, it was such a relief to find someone so punctual, organized and trustworthy waiting for us. From the beginning, he made us feel safe, comfortable and completely taken care of. One of the things that impressed us the most was his excellent knowledge of Sri Lanka. Buddi knows the country extremely well: the main attractions, the hidden places, the best routes, the safest areas, the best times to visit each place, and also the things tourists should be careful with. He helped us create an itinerary based on our own preferences, not just a standard route. He listened to what we wanted, gave us honest advice and adapted everything to make the experience perfect for us. During the trip, he was incredibly flexible. If we wanted to change the plan, stay longer somewhere, skip a stop, add a new place or modify the itinerary depending on the day, he always found a solution with a great attitude. That flexibility made the trip feel personal, relaxed and very special. His car was also excellent. He drives a very good new Toyota, always clean, comfortable and smelling perfect every single day. After spending many hours on the road, having such a clean and comfortable car made a huge difference. His driving was perfect: very safe, calm, professional and confident. We always felt completely secure with him, even on long roads or busy traffic. Buddi is also extremely well connected. It felt like he had friends in every city and every place we visited. Thanks to him, we often met kind and trustworthy people, and many of his friends gave us better prices because we were with him. This was a big advantage, because it made everything easier, safer and more authentic. As a person, Buddi is wonderful. He is funny, kind, friendly, hardworking and disciplined. He is always punctual, organized and ready to help. He has a great sense of humour and a very positive energy, which made the long drives enjoyable. He was always happy to put on good music and create a relaxed atmosphere in the car. Another thing we appreciated a lot was that he was always looking after us. He advised us where to go, where to be careful with people, and where we would feel safe. He never made us feel abandoned. Either he came with us, waited for us, or left us with someone trustworthy that he personally knew. That gave us a lot of peace of mind, especially in a country we were discovering for the first time. He also recommended excellent restaurants and beautiful places to visit. Thanks to his advice, we discovered places we probably would not have found on our own. His recommendations were always honest and useful, and he clearly cared about us having the best possible experience. Buddi was much more than just a driver. He became a guide, a helper, a protector and a friend during our journey. Travelling with him made Sri Lanka easier, safer, more comfortable and much more enjoyable. I would recommend Buddi without any hesitation to anyone visiting Sri Lanka. If you are looking for a private driver who is reliable, professional, safe, flexible, kind and truly committed to making your trip special, Buddi is the perfect choice. Honestly, I would come back to Sri Lanka just to spend another period of time travelling with him. He made our trip exceptional, and we will always remember him with great affection and gratitude.

  We recently completed a private 10-day tour with Salut Sri Lanka Tours for our group of four, and the experience exceeded every expectation. From the initial planning stages through the final day of our journey, the team was professional, responsive, and genuinely committed to making our trip unforgettable. A special thank you goes to Lucky, our driver and guide throughout the tour. His driving skills were exceptional safe, smooth, and confident in every situation. Whether navigating busy city streets, winding mountain roads, or long-distance routes, we always felt completely comfortable and secure. Beyond being an outstanding driver, Lucky was friendly, punctual, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure we had the best possible experience. What truly set this company apart was the support they provided when our travel plans were unexpectedly disrupted due to the Middle East crisis last February. We were forced to extend our stay by an additional four days, and the team stepped in immediately to help rearrange transportation, accommodations, and logistics. During what could have been a very stressful situation, they made everything remarkably easy and gave us tremendous peace of mind. Their flexibility, compassion, and professionalism during an unforeseen crisis were nothing short of exceptional. Throughout the entire trip, every detail was handled seamlessly. The vehicle was comfortable and impeccably maintained, communication was excellent, and the service consistently exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Salut Sri Lanka Tours. If you're looking for a reliable, professional, and truly customer-focused chauffeur and tour company, this is the one to choose. And if you're fortunate enough to have Lucky as your driver, you're in the very best hands. Thank you again for making our journey so memorable. We look forward to traveling with you again in the future!

  First we were greeted with orchid necklaces upon arrival. Our driver Buddi brought us to all the places planned and even unusual. He is an excellent driver who showed us his country. People here everywhere are smiling and taking care of themselves. I therefore highly recommend it.

  

• Stunning Shri Lankan vista with Buddi

  Shri Lanka is a wonderful country but requires a guide driver not to struggle. Bouddi organized a 14-day trip with superb visits and accommodations as comfortable as unusual. Bouddi knows his country by heart and knows how to make you discover it. Always positive and considerate it always remains very discreet. We had a superb timeless stay. Without him we would have missed a lot of things. You can go there with confidence.
