    We really enjoyed it. We learned about Sri Lanka's culture, markets, and religions. The guide was very friendly. Definitely recommended if you have little time in Negombo and want to see the city's most interesting spots.

    Magnificent day to visit Kandy from Negombo. The guide offered us detailed information not only about the planned activities (temple of the tooth, tea factory, jewelry making, etc.) but also about the uses and customs of Sri Lanka. He also attended to other requests such as the purchase of spices.
