Genuine Encounters

It’s all about whom you are meeting. Our tours are designed to grant you an intimate peak into the country and meeting real local people. With our special relationships cultivated over the years, our tours offer access into villages and homes to provide truly unique perspectives. This is something we are really specialized in. You do things together, share a meal or take part in a religious ritual; you become their guest but not a paid tourist.

Drivers/Chauffeurs

Our pool of drivers/chauffeurs has been graded A & A Plus, depending on their experience in the Travel and Tourism field and the feedback we have received from our valued guests. We constantly ensure that our visitors receive the services that best meet their requirements.

If you are an individual traveller or a family, your companion will be your driver/chauffeur from the moment you arrive in Sri Lanka until you depart. Most of our drivers/chauffeurs are fluent in English, but we do have drivers who speak other languages such as German, Dutch, French, Hindi, Arabic etc. Our drivers/chauffeurs accompany only groups of 7 travellers and below.
