Our Guide Prabha traveled with us for 8 days in Sri Lanka and made our discovery visit to this paradise perfect. We traveled with 2 families to Colombi,Ella,Nuwara Eliya,Kandy,Sigiriya,Anuradhapura and Mirissa. I truely believe that international travel agents could not have matched what we experienced by working with a local team. Prabha went above and beyond while showing us the "must visit" and exposing us to local gems. He is very knowledgable and connected and his passion for everything Sri Lanka has to offer is infectious. He was also very flexible when we made small adjustments to our plans.Kingfisher Tour does an awesome job in the Island giving the best service for their guests and their guides who are professional gives a high remark to the company. Highly Recommended for all and Thank you Kingfisher Tours for everythinggo_miriam

Tour por los lugares más emblemáticos. Lo contratamos desde Barcelona. El guía no recogió en el aeropuerto y durante todos los días no lleva y nos acompaña. A veces junto a otro guía. Lugares increíbles y muy recomendables visitar. Sin duda un acierto.

Without doubt SRI LANKA is one of the beautiful country, we had a wonderful 8 days trip. Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed by Liberty and Shiranthi with garland and bouquets and we felt friendly and welcomed. Liberty our guide is a very friendly, likeable and knowledgeable about all aspects of the tour. The team were very flexible and patient for every stops we requested during the trip as we were traveling with kids and yet did not missed what was planned. Above all, Aashik and team made my daughter’s 12th birthday extra special decorating the bus, cake and gifts. THANK YOU VERY MUCH! It was perfect from beginning to end talking with Aashik where he never refused for our wishes and went beyond for our satisfaction by ordering his team I would definitely recommend Kingfisher Tours to friends and family.Martink561427

Me and my fiancé lucie visited Sri Lanka for 10 days and it was absolutely fantastic vacation. Even though we were a bit sceptical before our departure due to the current situation, our holiday turned to be the most amazing we have ever had. We, as a tourists haven’t felt affected at all. Being honest we were glad since we had all the tourist sites only for us. Kingfisher Tours Sri Lanka prepared exquisite tour program for us and delivered it flawlessly. A huge thanks goes to our driver/guide Aswar who was very helpful, friendly, knowledgeable and prepared to accommodate all our needs. We had a great time and we will definitely recommend anyone to use this company for your Sri Lanka holiday.michealjames6173

Fantastic and reliable service from Kingfisher Tours since our first day to the last, We were greeted with flowers and with no hestitations our driver took us to all the suggested places without the tour as well. The Hotels they choose are absolutely awesome. In this crisis which Sri Lanka is facing we were worried to visit Sri Lanka but with the response of Aashik we kept coming, Tourists get the priority for fueling and all and so we were not worried about anything. Thank you for the great service Kingfisher and TeamLauraDave58
