Tim & Andi - 7 day tour
We just finished the 7 day Sri Lanka tour. Awesome. We had a super guide and saw all the highlights of the country. For the time we had this was perfect for us. Capturing th sport of the country and allowed us to see as much of Sri Lanka as we could. Our guide (Jerard) was super patient and kind. Giving us time to see everything and Explaining the various sites as we went and ensuring our safe travel and getting he beat guides at the various sites and venues. Recommended for those that want to see everything in one week and ensuring you don't miss anything in the way.
Stress-free tour that felt like a dream!
My boyfriend and I decided to spend 10 days in Sri Lanka after a chaotic and exciting (and exhausting) trip around India. We were looking for a relaxing and inspiring getaway, and Phillip was by our side every step of the way to ensure we had the best experience. Sri Lanka itself surpassed our expectations, from its rich history to its beaches and its lush palm covered mountains. Our driver Sunil was extremely accommodating, driving us to each destination and always putting up with us and our last minute plan changes. Don't be afraid to mention new activities or destinations you're interested in! Phillip made sure we got to fit in everything we hoped to see. Even though our tour description listed two-star hotels, Phillip hooked us up with three-stars the whole trip. Which I thought seemed more like four-star! Such beautiful bed and breakfasts with delicious food. Our favorite adventures were definitely the white water river rafting and then the river boat tour through the Cinnamon Islands. We are already so excited to visit Sri Lanka again and can't wait to book our next trip through Phillip and his team will work tirelessly to make it a personal and customized adventure that will be remembered forever.
Trip of a lifetime
Not a day goes by where I don't think about how awesome this trip was! The tour provided all sorts of entertainment throughout the island and covered a lot of ground in Sri Lanka, which was great because the scenery is beautiful. Our driver quickly became good company and my girlfriend and I were pleased with Phillip the host, who met all our needs and communicated great.
What an amazing trip!
What can I say...This trip was more than what we expected. With a group of ten, I can honestly say not a person was disappointed. In a 3 day time period we have covered plenty of ground and had a chance to see all kinds of animal life from monkeys to elephants. All of the rooms were a different variety, from a bed and breakfast style to a tea plantation that was absolutely beautiful. We also had the opportunity to go river rafting which gave everyone in the group a sense of thrill which was blending with a nice relaxing drive through the country. I must do vacation for a group of travelers of all kinds.
Lots to do and see in a short trip!
Great 3 day trip with 10 friends, Colombo, tea factory, silk boutique, river rafting, spice garden, and the Tooth Temple in Kandy. Nice accommodations out of the normal tourist areas. Great trip and great host.
Safe and relaxing assistance
Suggest to hire the private tour. You will have Kandy and its region at your disposal and Philippe will assist you for any need - expert guide, shopping, best places to eat and have fun in that wonderful country Fluent English and German ...
Authentic Sri Lanka Visit
Philipp speaks fluent English and thus communication was a breeze, making it a lot easier to make things possible as compared to the first half of the trip when we were exploring Sri Lanka on our own. An enthusiastic young man, he filled us with interesting ideas, stories and cultures of the places we were visiting or passing by. One of the accommodations booked didn’t quite meet our expectation but Philipp handed the situation extremely well and got it fixed right there and then. We were also very privilege to be able to visit his home and met his lovely family. Managed to cover all places that we wanted to visit. Truly a memorable trip. Recommended.
Friendly, Easy Going and Flexible guide who goes the extra distance for you
Easy to communicate and understand Philipp as he speaks fluent English. He is well knowledgeable in the local language and knows how to get the best prices for you. I had a 3 Day trip through the countryside and some historic sites. I had limited time and wanted to do specific things. Philipp was very understanding and tailored my tour heavily from the usual. He arranged all the extra necessary transport and other accommodation and food. It was one of the most fluid and stress free tours I have done. Will definitely recommend him to anyone without any hesitation.
Above and beyond "tourist attraction"
Above and beyond the things tourists have access to in Sri Lanka, Philipp took me to see the exquisite beauty of the interior Sri Lanka. Up the winding roads to spectacular vistas and the peace of nature. I felt well taken care of and just a mention of something I would like to see or do brought instant effort to make that happen. This young man has great "heart" and delights in helping visitors see and experience the best side of this beautiful country. Your visit will be amazing when you allow him to show you around.
Very knowledgeable local guy with excellent language skills
I met with Philipp and was very impressed with his knowledge and language skills. He really knows everything about the area and is an amazing guide, I can recommend him 100%!!
