Great transportation option for your Sri Lanka travels - Great choice for a private driver for your trip to Sri Lanka. Rishan was very helpful in planning and coordinating the the trip before hand. Our driver, Lakmal, was prompt and always a quick message away. I generally drive or Uber on my trips but here the private driver was a good choice as driving is a bit chaotic and the things you will want to see are spread out. I highly recommend hiring this company as the price is an excellent deal for private transportation for the duration of your travels. Rishan and Lakmal were both knowledgeable on the major attractions and able to set up the tours, even at the last minute. Lakmal also went out of his way to arrange a special surprise celebration for my wife’s birthday one of the days. Certainly do this if you are debating whether to hire a private driver or not.

Amazing 10-day trip around Sri Lanka - We had the most incredible 10 days exploring Sri Lanka with our private driver, Subair. From Negombo to Kandy, Ella, udawalawe, Mirissa, and Galle, everything ran perfectly thanks to him. Subair was professional, kind, and always went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. He shared great local tips, recommended delicious places to eat, and showed us hidden spots we’d never have found on our own. His driving was safe and relaxed — perfect for long scenic drives. Sri Lanka is absolutely stunning, and travelling with Subair made it truly stress-free and unforgettable. My mum and I can’t recommend him enough — thank you, Subair, for an amazing trip and for showing us the heart of your beautiful country! 🇱🇰❤️

Sri Lanka 2025 - We booked a private driver for our tour round Sri Lanka due to a recommendation from a family member. Ahmed was an amazing driver, he was at our beck and call the whole time. He gave us good recommendations on restaurants, which included one on the way to Ella which had the most amazing view! He was always helping us with our luggage and just generally looking after us, his driving kept us feeling safe the whole trip. It’s safe to say our trip to Sri Lanka wouldn’t have been the same without Ahmed!

Thank you Shenal & Rishan for making our trip unforgettable 🤍 - They have become my number one and only choice for transport in Sri Lanka. From the very start, Rishan helped us through the planning and route for our 2 week stay in Sri Lanka and has been available through all my queries - prices are affordable too. But our highlight of the experience was the driver who was assigned to us, Shenal! Shenal made the entire trip wonderful and went above and beyond to help us see the beauty of Sri Lanka. From great recommendations, amazing food, catchy tunes and so much more, Shenal made the whole experience one to remember for a lifetime. Definitely coming back and reconnecting with Rishan and Shenal! :)

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – Highly recommended! - We travelled through Sri Lanka for 10 days with our family of 10 people, and we were truly fortunate to have such a fantastic driver. From the very first day, his punctuality stood out, every morning he was ready on time with a big smile. The communication was flawless and smooth, making everything easy and stress-free. He also gave us excellent advice on places to visit and activities to do, always keeping in mind our preferences and the dynamics of our group. His friendliness, patience, and understanding made a huge difference. Travelling with a large family can sometimes be hectic, but he remained calm, attentive, and caring throughout. On the road, we always felt safe and comfortable thanks to his steady and professional driving style. He was not only our driver but also a guide and a friend. He shared stories about the culture, showed us hidden gems, and made sure we experienced Sri Lanka in a truly authentic way. Thanks to him, our journey was not only smooth but also unique and unforgettable. We can wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, friendly, and professional driver in Sri Lanka.

Unforgettable SRI_LANKA - I had an excellent tour organized by Rishan, with Rishard as the driver. He was extremely polite and made me feel like family rather than a new guest. He managed to cover all the important spots in such a short time, showing great professionalism throughout. Thanks to his local contacts, I also received some very good discounts. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I would definitely recommend their service to others.
