Awesome 14 day tour around Sri Lanka We had an incredible experience with Darshana. He is very on top of things, friendly, very communicative and flexible with our planning. He helped us create a custom 14 day tour around the island and accommodated every suggestion and idea we had for the tour, even after we had already made the booking! The trip itself was absolutely incredible, Sri Lanka is an amazing country! Our driver Heshan was friendly, helpful, professional and a great driver, never once arrived late, kept the car in pristine condition. Heshan was also super patient and flexible with us, we're kind of picky eaters and he always made sure we were happy with the restaurant we chose, and gave great recommendations as well. Sometimes we made some last minute decisions to our planning and Heshan was always happy to see it happen, so I highly recommend him as a driver! As possible points of improvement: - we were taken to a turtle hatchery place near Mirissa that looked like an absolute scam. They obviously imprisoned the turtles there and ran a for-profit business exploiting and abusing new born turtles. I suggest you find a better place for this activity, there are plenty of hatcheries in that area with better practices. - we were also taken to a store where you could buy handmade traditional masks. The place is also clearly a scam for tourists, they sell overpriced, crappy products. At a certain point the store lady even broke the mask we had bought while packaging (that's how bad the masks were), and still tried to sell it to us saying she would "fix it". Eventually on the last day we went to a much better store near Hikkaduwa and bought another mask that we are really happy with (although still very expensive). In general I still highly recommend Darshana and Heshan, they made our holiday very memorable!

Awesome 4 day tour - Kandy, Nuwara Eliya, Ella and Colombo My mom and I had an amazing 4 day tour of Kandy, Nuwara Eliya, Ella and Colombo with Darshana Tours. Darshana was so easy to reach via WhatsApp and he built an itinerary based on our availability. He was able to secure air conditioned seats on the train ride from Nanu Oya to Ella and was able to book all the hotels that were listed on the itinerary once we confirmed our booking. It was such an easy and seamless process. Now, a moment for our driver, Hesham. He arrived on time with a spotless vehicle accommodated all our requests to make pit stops for coconut water and bathroom breaks. Finally, it is so important to mention that he is a very attentive and safe driver. Some of our hotel locations require him to drive up some steep and narrow streets which would have made me uneasy, but he did it which such confidence and ease. Thank you for being so flexible and making it so memorable!

Dear Darshana-Team, at the end of february we came back from a wonderful vacation in Sri Lanka, we would like to thank you all for the good organisation. Having you Kali as our guide was a great pleasure, you show us this beautiful country and let us taste great local food, beautiful temple, lots of animals and relaxing nature. We liked your pit stops to catch some local sweets to taste during our bus transfer. Everything was top organised and the guide and driver had always a smile on their faces. Kali was always caring about our group and the children loved you too, we felt save and protected, you always had a good recommendation for us. It was really sad to let him go as we arrived at Talalla Retreat, it was a great experience for all of us. Many thanks also to our friendly driver Ajid, it was a great pleasure to be with you on the bus. Togheter you are a great team! I recommend Darshana Tours if you want travel to Sri Lanka with children!

We've recently returned from a 22 day holiday in Sri Lanka. Wow what a fabulous experience, it is the first time we have hired a private driver. We booked this with Darshana Tours. We had our own itinerary which I sent to Darshana, he looked it over and organised everything from airport pickup to hotels and excursion tickets. Everything went like clockwork. Our driver Yudi was brilliant, he went above and beyond our expectations. By the end of the fortnight he had become a friend. He added extra visits to places not on our itinerary, so much time was saved having Yudi take us everywhere. We couldn't possibly have done everything we did on our own. Nothing was too much trouble even when we were setting off at 4am for certain trips he was there with a smile on his face. At the end of the fortnight Yudi dropped us off at our beach hotel, we were sorry to see him go.We liked the fact that Darshana kept in touch by WhatsApp throughout the 14 days making sure we were happy with everything. If you are thinking of going to Sri Lanka we would definitely recommend you speak to Darshana. He will be happy to accommodate you with whatever you want.
