5.00Overall, we had a great day! We started at 7am for Sigiriya Rock, which was the perfect time as there were very few people around. The grounds were beautiful. Entry was $45 per person and not included in the tour, but you can pay by card at the entrance. We also paid 15,000 rupees cash each to the guide for Minneriya park entrance fee. Afterwards we did the Sigiriya Village Tour, which included an eco farm growing herbs and spices for Ayurvedic medicine. We were given a massage using different oils and products, which was unexpected but very good. Small tips are encouraged throughout the village tour, usually around 200 rupees, but they seemed optional. We also bought some oils and creams from the farm. Next was a tractor ride, they even let us drive it briefly, followed by a handmade raft trip across the lake. The two men paddling made flowers, necklaces and hats from plants they picked along the way. Very peaceful experience. Lunch was excellent. A local lady demonstrated traditional Sri Lankan cooking and showed us how to de-shell rice, prepare coconut leaf thatching, and process coconuts before serving a large traditional meal. For the safari, our guide explained that due to the weather the elephants had moved, so we went to a different park instead of Minneriya. He explained everything clearly using a translator app. We still saw lots of elephants, which was the main thing. The jeep ride is (as you’d expect) extremely bumpy though, so be careful if you have back problems!

Amazing Experience with Mahesh

5.00I had an absolutely incredible experience on this private Sigiriya and safari tour, and a huge part of that was thanks to our driver and guide, Mahesh. From start to finish, Mahesh was outstanding. He was extremely efficient and made the entire day feel seamless and well-paced, which is so important when you’re covering multiple destinations. Beyond that, he was genuinely one of the friendliest and most enjoyable guides I’ve ever had—easy to talk to, fun to be around, and clearly passionate about what he does. What really stood out was his expertise. During the safari, Mahesh knew exactly where to go to find elephants and positioned us perfectly to get incredible, up-close views without ever feeling rushed or intrusive. We saw so much more than we expected, and it was clear that his experience and instincts made all the difference. Throughout the entire trip, he was also incredibly knowledgeable about everything we were seeing—whether it was the history around Sigiriya or the wildlife on the safari. He added so much context and insight that made the experience feel much richer and more meaningful. If you’re considering this tour, I cannot recommend it enough—especially if you can request Mahesh. He truly elevated the entire experience and turned what would have been a great day into an unforgettable one.
An experience not to be missed.

4.00Four friends had a great day with driver and guide Thiradu, visiting Sigiriya Lion Rock and Minneriya National Park. We paid an extra SLR2500 and took the additional tour of a local village which included a cooking demonstration and lunch. Well worth it as we saw how the local villagers live. Didn’t see as many elephants as we expected, but Thiradu knew all the spots they were likely to be in. His English was of a high standard and we found him very informative. Be prepared to be very generous with guides at Lion Rock who seem to appear out of nowhere to assist you in climbing the stairs. Our only concern was the reliability of the jeep we were travelling in….. reluctant to start first try.
