Amazing experience - It was an amazing experience. The driver was not only super friendly but he also drove through an area where there were free-roaming monkeys and elephants so that we could watch and feed them from the car. Everything was perfect, thank you :)

A great experience with this company... Honest and reliable. - We had a super easy experience booking with Ronnie through What's App. Super organised efficient and competitive with price. We met our driver at Colombo airport around midnight after a very long flight and immediately travelled the 6hrs to Arugam Bay. We soon realised we had a good quality van, and total faith in our driver who was accommodating cautious and safe. At that time of the night a lot of wildlife to be aware of... including 2 elephants crossing their main highway in the dark ess of night!! Arrived early morning. Highly recommend.

First class service, we used them again and again - We used this excellent company three times in Sri Lanka, to get us from the airport to Arugam Bay, then to Hiriketiya a week later and back to the airport a week after that. Always on time and reliable, competitively priced, excellent communication via WhatsApp and kind and efficient drivers. Will use again when we come back!

A great holiday start - A great service. Saminda the driver arrived early and he waited and helped us to do few commissions at Colombo airport. Great driving, car was clean and new. Saminda is a legend, he gave us great tips and he tried to find something open to get us some food (we arrived late late at night). Also good price. Very recommended, if you can have Saminda as a driver even better!!
