Sri Lanka Made Easy

Reviewed November 17, 2015

We felt very lucky to have had Rizwan as our driver/guide for almost 2 weeks (Sept. 28-Oct 10) while travelling around Sri Lanka. He was an excellent driver, helped us to select accommodation, was always on time when picking us up and was very knowledgeable about Sri Lanka. He was funny and easy to talk with. He made sure that we tried all of the things that make Sri Lanka special, i.e. stopping for roadside yogurt & honey (so good), coconut milk from fresh coconuts, fresh strawberries and ice cream! He took us to fantastic viewing points to see beautiful waterfalls and tea plantations that spread for miles. Knowing that one of us liked to take pictures he made sure that we stopped for those special shots. Communication with Rizwan, prior to our arrival to Sri Lanka, was easy through email and he was prompt with responding to our questions. He had a newer Prius, which was such a smooth ride and AC (very much appreciated with the heat!) and every morning he would arrive with it sparkling clean and ready for another day of driving Sri Lanka. Rizwan helped to make our vacation one to remember and we are very thankful to him for that. He is a caring individual who takes pride in his work as a guide in Sri Lanka. We highly recommend Rizwan as a choice for a guide and driver if you are planning a vacation in Sri Lanka. Should we be lucky enough to return to the beautiful Island we will certainly be calling on Rizwan again!

Two weeks of unforgettable rest in January, 2014

Reviewed February 25, 2015

I and my friends spent two weeks of unforgettable rest in SRI LANKA. Paradise on the earth, according to his inhabitants!!! We completely agree with them! Sri Lanka – remarkable places for travel and rest. In the winter, in January on Sri Lanka wonderful weather, the tender sea, abundance of vegetables and fruit! In five days of travel we passed almost all island. The remained time was spent on the bank of the Indian Ocean, on a beach in Tangalle. This place for those who doesn't hurry anywhere, loves a privacy and silence. We thought over the route in advance. With it we were helped by Rizwan which made our rest unforgettable and fascinating. To our happiness, it was to us and as the driver who carried us. And as the guide, explaining everything around and telling story and the relevant information on the country. In our following travel we decided to return to Sri Lanka. There are places at which we didn't manage to look! Our travel will take place in January of the next year. It will be other route about which we don't worry, thanks to our friend of "Riz". "Riz" also I helped us with hotels and I advised places for visit (I would tell, with it it was cheerful and safe). We will be more than are glad to share its coordinates if who needs to take pleasure in a holiday fully! I wish all good luck! I recommend to visit Sri Lanka! Also I can't wait to meet our friend of "Riz" again in January!
