Janaka is a really great person! Very knowledgeable of Sri Lanka! Isn't it the best way to discover a country when your guide is from there?

Very Informative and Trustworthy

Reviewed July 21, 2015

Myself and my wife (26 and 27), travelled to Sri Lanka in June/July 2015 and we hired Janaka for our entire trip. On making contact with Janaka first, he provided a very comprehensive schedule of activities for the two week period that we planned to stay in Sri Lanka. We made some adjustments to this as we tried to find the balance between tourism and R&R. There were no issues with this on his part and he was very quick in responding to us. He ensured to answer all of our queries and apprehensions before our departure to Sri Lanka. We were greeted by Janaka at 1:30 am at Colombo airport and he drove us to Dambulla as soon as we left the airport (a 4 hour journey through the night/early morning). On the trips themselves, he was very informative and regularly pulled the car over in order to purchase some local fruit and to point out some indigenous wildlife and plants not to mention the amazing landscape offered by Sri Lanka. These stops offered great photo opportunities. The car itself was a very comfortable hybrid car and his driving was of a very high standard which cannot be faulted. Janaka himself was very well presented, and was a very nice guy. He was certainly looking out for our best interests prior to and during our trip. We would certainly recommend using him as a tour guide (and furthermore, it is a must that you hire a tour guide for your stay in Sri Lanka - the roads are not for the feint hearted). It is also highly adviseable to have a native speaker on your trip if you are sightseeing. We will be advising our friends to visit Sri Lanka and based on our experience with Janaka, we will certainly recommend his services. Many thanks for your kind services Janaka, we look forward to seeing you again soon.

Mr. Janaka served us (me and my family) as our driver and guide during a week in Sri Lanka. He was very knowledgeable and informative and spoke excellent English. Our limited time in Sri Lanka was very pleasant and productive because of his help. We recommend him and his services without any hesitation.
