We Came as Visitors and Left with a Trusted Friend” ❤️🙏
My wife and I are from Sydney, Australia, and we had a wonderful three-week journey around Sri Lanka with Rangana, who was our tour organiser, guide and driver.
We travelled with Rangana from Colombo to Negombo, Chilaw, Wilpattu, Madhu, Jaffna, Trincomalee, Anuradhapura, Sigiriya, Minneriya, Kataragama, Kandy, Nuwara Eliya, Galle and many other places along the way.
From the very beginning, Rangana meticulously prepared our itinerary in close consultation with us. He organised all our hotel accommodations and travel arrangements, picked us up from the airport on the day we arrived and dropped us back at the airport on the day we departed Sri Lanka. Everything was planned and organised exceptionally well.
Rangana was an exceptional tour guide. We found him to be honest, courteous, friendly, punctual and highly experienced. He drove us throughout the entire tour in a clean and comfortable car and was always patient and accommodating. His knowledge of Sri Lanka, its history, culture and the many places we visited was beyond our expectations.
He organised beautiful and comfortable stays in different locations, guided us through the many attractions, helped us with shopping, and introduced us to wonderful Sri Lankan food and local experiences. As Sri Lankan expatriates who had not visited the country for more than 37 years, we were amazed by how much we learnt about our own country—many things we had never known before.
From arranging our accommodation and airport transfers to taking us around Sri Lanka and showing us so many wonderful places, Rangana made our entire trip much easier, enjoyable and truly memorable.
But more than being our driver and guide, Rangana has become a good and trusted friend to us. We sincerely appreciate his kindness, patience, honesty and the genuine care he showed us throughout our journey. We always felt safe, comfortable and well looked after, and that meant a great deal to us.
It was a real pleasure spending the last three weeks with Rangana. We will certainly remember the many wonderful places we visited, as well as the good times, conversations and laughs we shared along the way.
We both sincerely thank you, Rangana, for everything you have done for us. We wish you good health, happiness and every success in the future.
Thank you once again for looking after us so well. We came to Sri Lanka as visitors, but we are leaving with a trusted friend. ❤️🙏
Take care, Rangana, and we hope to see you again in the future!
Warmest wishes,
Vijey & Devini Susindran

A wonderful trip to Sri Lanka We had an amazing time in Sri Lanka with Ranga. He was an incredibly knowledgeable and caring guide who always went the extra mile to ensure we had a great time and that we were able to see everything we wanted. His knowledge of the local birds and animals was amazing and we were constantly surprised when he would stop the car and point something out - we wouldn’t have seen a fraction of the wildlife without him. We would thoroughly recommend him, he is a truly exceptional guide.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

relax and enjoy I'm very grateful to Rango for a fantastic tour of Sri Lanka! Personalized service, a comprehensive program, and comfortable and pleasant communication. My husband and I traveled throughout Sri Lanka in Rango's car. All our requests regarding the route were taken into account. I truly believe this was my best trip. We immersed ourselves in local life and the country's history, seeing all the island's beauty. She'll also take the most beautiful photos for your Instagram and help you buy the most delicious fruits in season.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Lanka n Ranga This is now our 3rd trip with Ranga. We first visited this stunning island 10 years ago, taking in the southern part of the island. We enjoyed it that much, we made a promise to ourselves that we would be back! This island gives you such a feel good factor … it’s individuality is overwhelming! Two years ago we contacted Ranga to create a tour to the northern point of the island, again so many things to see and do, it’s so different to that of the south of the island. It was during this wonderful trip that we came upon the Pekoe Trail. Ranga came up with an itinerary to suit our wishes and capabilities and he certainly didn’t disappoint us, taking us on 9 stages of this stunning walk, through ancient woodlands, cloud forest, to the glorious tea plantations, with its huge numbers of tea pickers and its processing factories. This is such a giving island, full of wonderful animals, birds and cultural opportunities, that Lanka just keeps giving! Its diversity and uniqueness is something else ! We now are planning for March 27 a trip to The Knuckles Mountain Range a UNESCO World Heritage conservation site in central Lanka, Adam’s Peak walk to an elevation of 7359ft, with some white water rafting along the way! Ranga is an amazing driver guide and comes with a good sense of humour, great company to be around and a wealth of knowledge n experience. He’s always asking of your wellbeing and nothing is too much trouble with a kind considerate approach to everything. He’s a keen ornithologist and eager to share his sightings along the way, his love, joy and passion is infectious! Thank you Ranga for making our wonderful holidays a dream come true, long may they continue ….thank youPosted on Tripadvisor![]()

Travel with Ranga From the moment we met Ranga at the airport in Colombo we knew we were going to have the trip of a lifetime. Ranga is a sensitive and accommodating guide; balancing his depth of knowledge and ability to share the culture & history of Sri Lanka with a skill for giving space for us to experience the island in our own way. Wherever we went with Ranga we felt we got the most from our visit, whether it was a visit to a tea shop, a roadside fruit stall or a safari. Thanks to Ranga I still appreciate bird watching in a way that I never would have imagined! Anyone booking a trip to Sri Lanka to Travel with Ranga will find themselves enjoying a unique holiday they won’t forget.
