Unforgettable round trip - Unforgettable tour of Sri Lanka with Kumara! Our trip through Sri Lanka was simply fantastic – and we owe this mainly to our great guide Kumara! From Sigiriya to Ella to Yala National Park, he not only accompanied us safely, but also inspired us with exciting stories, insider tips and warm hospitality. In Sigiriya Kumara led us to the famous Lion Rock early in the morning so we could enjoy the breathtaking view before the tourist crowds arrived. He also showed us the lesser-known but equally impressive places in the area. Ella was an absolute highlight – from the hike to Little Adam’s Peak via the Nine Arches Bridge to the spectacular train ride through the highlands. Kumara knew exactly when and where the best photo spots were! The highlight was our visit to Yala National Park. Kumara knew the best ways off the beaten track, and we could see elephants, crocodiles and many other animals up close – even if the famous leopard unfortunately didn’t show up. Nevertheless, it was a unique experience! The organization was perfect, the transport convenient, and the accommodations he recommended to us were really good. If you want to experience Sri Lanka authentically and stress-free, you should definitely travel with Kumara – absolutely recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great experience!🤗 - We had a wonderful time in Sri Lanka together with our driver Ashen. Already from Germany we were able to plan our trip with Gihan, we received feedback very quickly and were able to make the trip flexible. On site in Sri Lanka we were already picked up at the airport, had super nice days and many special moments in the beautiful country. Ashen responded to all our wishes, was always very nice, helped us and told us a lot about life in Sri Lanka. Absolutely recommend!☺️

Sri Lanka a very special country - First time to Sri Lanka. It was the best decision we made in 2024. It couldn't have been better. The guided tour was amazing. We got to know so many nice and friendly new people and they showed us everything about their culture and way of life. We have experienced and seen so much in the 10 days that we will talk about it many times and share our experiences with friends and acquaintances. Sri Lanka is really a wonderful country with many different impressions, from mountains, forests, beaches, sites, rice fields, orchards, cultivation of spice trees etc. You cannot put all the wealth of this country into words. Our driver Kumara told us a lot about the 10 days and we were able to change the program ourselves if it was too much for us. Everything was possible, whether shopping, swimming, hiking, eating well. He fulfilled every wish and always made sure we were doing really well. We felt really comfortable and never insecure. He always drove safely, in the hectic road conditions and always brought us safely to our destination. We would do it again and again, you don't have to think about anything and has a dream stay in Sri Lanka. If you have the opportunity, Sri Lanka is a must do on any travel list. We would like to thank the whole team and enjoy the time in Sri Lanka. Carina and Theresa

More than just a driver! - Gihan accompanied us for nine days and not only drove us through Sri Lanka but also showed us the country. He always made us feel safe. Often, Gihan accompanied us, for example, on the safari tour or hikes. This led to a kind of friendship that lasted throughout the entire vacation. Gihan is truly recommended to everyone—not only as a well-organized driver but also as a helpful, friendly travel companion.

Uncomplicated and flawless from A to Z - All around great service! Booking with GSLT is super fast and uncomplicated via email, we were sent a travel suggestion and we could still make individual adjustments. When we arrived in Colombo our driver Kumara was already waiting for us at the airport and the journey started. We saw and experienced so many great things and always felt 100% safe with Kumara, he flexibly adapted the travel program according to weather and day form of us which was great. Also the hotels, safaris etc were all reserved by GSLT and at events we had always got the best seats. I can really highly recommend GSLt if you plan a carefree trip to Sri Lanka and still want to see a lot.

Just wow! - Through the recommendation of my brother, we also decided on a guided trip with Gihan. This decision was not regretted for a second. The preliminary meeting went smoothly and always with new tips from Gihans. His travel recommendations before the trip and also during the trip were a 10/10. We could always rely on him, he was always available and above all Gihan took care of us every minute (like a dad). Importantly, however, he always gave us space and we never felt guilty if we wanted to stay somewhere longer. We felt very safe and had a lot of fun with him. If I travel to Sri Lanka again one day, it will be 100% with Gihan!!!🫶🏻 Thanks for the great memories!

Gihan is truly the best driver in Sir Lanka! - Best Driver in Sri Lanka! Gihan is not only a driver, he is a tour guide, support network (something goes wrong), translator and now also a good friend! We are incredibly happy that we decided to hire a driver, not only because of the traffic in Sri Lanka, but also because you get a complete package with Gihan. Gihan is committed and helps you with everything that happens. Whether planning the tour, organizing a new hotel or negotiating prices in the market. It couldn't have been better for us! You notice that Gihan also has the experience to choose the right activities + (very important) to find the right time for it. (e.g. when to go to Lions Rock to avoid the crowds of tourists) We mostly planned our trip ourselves, but then made a few changes with Gihan on site (on his Recommendation) that were really an asset. We once had problems with a hotel and then did not feel comfortable there and when we called Gihan he was 15min later at the door with several recommendations for other hotels nearby. All in all, we are very happy that we took a driver and that it was Gihan! Is really recommended to everyone! Thank you for everything! Max, Zeno and Flo from Austria
