Take the stress away with Lanka Safe Tours! - We travelled around Sri Lanka for two weeks as part of our honeymoon and were so happy to have booked a driver through Lanka Safe Tours. They were super helpful from the start and made the whole process very easy. In particular, our driver, Milan, was absolutely brilliant! He took us to all the great places and was very safe and efficient. Nothing was too difficult and he was happy to help and accommodate with any ad-hoc requests, including day tours/trips which took a lot of stress away from us. Overall, we were very happy with the service we received and would highly recommend anyone travelling to Sri Lanka to book a driver and trips through Lanka Safe Tours!

Great introductory experience to Sri Lanka - This is a great itinerary for anyone who would like to get a comprehensive taste of what Sri Lanka has to offer. Lanka Safe Tours is also an agency I would highly recommend for their excellent customer service and value.
The tour leader/driver are extremely accommodating and highly service oriented to make sure that the
tour is going smoothly, to address any issues that may come up, to provide insights and suggestions, and most importantly to keep their clients safe. I had the pleasure of doing a slightly extended 15 day trip with Pansi and would say he was one I would ask for again based on the previous comments.
Hotels at the 4 star level are still relatively basic and some were outside of the city center so didn't offer much to do such as walking around the town after hours outside of locations in Ella or Kandy. Due to international travel, l asked for a half day excursions in Colombo which is not part of the itinerary but was worth seeing albeit briefly.
One comment is that since entrance fees and excursion costs are not included to budget anywhere from $600-800 extra. Mine was on the higher side since I was traveling solo and often had to opt for private options on excursions like the safaris versus tagging along with another group or family.
Food options were incredible and ranged from local diners to pretty trendy places that focused on Sri Lankan food with a touch of other global influences. Pansi knew I was a foodie and selected excellent options for me that were simple but great in some cases to pretty fancy.
I can definitely see why Lanka Safe
Tours got their ***** rating!

PRASANNA THE TOP - My driver was the top .. made our trip unforgettable both for the places visited , and for the people who made us know. He always advised us well and helped us in times of difficulty .. he was not a driver but our trusted travel companion. He treated my daughters like princesses and pampered them from day one to the last. PRASANNA is the best travel companion for a family. It's got a place on our travel album.

Super Mr.Prasam, your brother in Sri Lanka - great guide - We spent 13 days around Sri Lanka with Mr. Prasa, a serious and professional guy, at heart. He took care of us throughout the trip. You can trust him. We were in 6, parents children and grandparents and we never had any problem with him, at the seaside safari in the mountains etc. led us to dine in great places with genuine local food. We recommend it to everyone. Thank you Prasa

Classic tour - We are just at the end of our tour. There were a lot of temples to visit - be aware that both men and women must cover arms and legs and no head covering - it does get hot especially as many of the temples have lots of steps. However we had a good time especially with our guide Kavi. He was so friendly and helpful. He is clearly very proud of his country and was keen to show us everything on offer focussing on the things he knew we particularly enjoy. We had a couple of issues on the tour and he helped us resolve them. He was also excellent at securing tickets for trains and shows and safaris etc. talking of which don't miss the safari from Yala it was very good and we saw sloth bear, a glimpse of a leopard and many other birds and animals.
If you book a tour with this company ask if Kavi can be your driver.

Great times 🏝️🙏🪷 - What a country & what a great way to see it! Felt super safe with our guide Prasanna who drove brilliantly & was always so willing to answer all our questions & adapt the itinerary to suit our interests. The dawn hikes were a highlight, as well as two incredible safaris & many temple visits. We ate superbly well - local lunches & some great hotel food especially in the smaller hotels where we were often the only guests! All in all a busy, fascinating, wonderful experience. Thank you 🙏🪷🌴🌅

Trip of a lifetime ❤️ - We have just completed the most amazing tour of Sri Lanka with Lanka Safe Tours. Our driver and guide, Prasanna was excellent. He always went out of his way to make sure that our experiences were the very best. The elephant and leopard safaris were just incredible, as was Sigiriya, the beaches and the temples. The choice of restaurants and hotels were amazing and varied and gave us a real insight into life in Sri Lanka. I would 100% recommend booking with Lanka Safe Tours and if available, you should request for Prasanna. You will not be disappointed.
