TESTIMONIALS
"Asanka was tremendous during our trip to Sri Lanka. He showed us parts of Sri Lanka that we never thought we would see, and crafted a perfect itinerary for the time that we had in this country. He was especially kind to us, and flexible when we wanted to change our schedule. Highly recommended!"

"Wow! Asanka was a great tour guide! He made the planning process stress-free, and accommodated all my requests. It was a fantastic trip that involved pristine beaches, amazing elephants and wildlife, and some of the finest tea I have ever sampled. I'll tell all my friends to contact Asanka when they visit Sri Lanka."

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed Asanka's company during our trip to Sri Lanka in mid-march 2012. I have hired drivers before on my past travels to other countries and Asanka definitely tops the list. He is an excellent driver with a very warm, easy going and friendly personality-just what you need when you are on a holiday. He went out of the way to show us wild elephants and sea turtles. He made our trip to Sri Lanka memorable. Thank you Asanka.

nice post about srilanka tourism. i like this post this is more informative.
ReplyDeleteThis is our second time with Asanka. He is a great driver, with a good knowledge of English and reasonable price, as well as a reliable, good humored and friendly person. He makes things easy, something really valuable when you spend so many hours with a stranger. That’s why we now consider him a friend.
ReplyDeleteWe have recommended Asanka to other friends during this last year and they’ve had the same experience. So we sincerely recommend him if you’re planning a trip to Sri Lanka.
