Review about Anoj
"Anoj was a fantastic guide and created a great tour for my parents. He adapted everything to their needs and was thoughtful, very knowledgeable and passionate to share his insights into his beautiful country. It was a highlight of their trip and would thoroughly recommend Anoj to anyone. "

Had a great time
"We loved our tour with Anoj! He was friendly and knowledgable and we had a lot of fun. He tailored the tour to what we wanted to do. The van was very modern and comfortable with excellent AC. The turtle hatchery was amazing and the baby turtles were adorable!"
"Great trip. Raji, Anoj's brother, along with Arjun were on time to pick us from Colombo. Showed us all the main attractions on the route to Galle. Everything went really fine. Very accommodative people. Glad they gave us the option to customize our trip. Helped us with the train tickets to Jaffna as well. Also, way cheaper than similar trips offered by some other websites. Recommended!"
"Anoj ist ein sehr liebevoller und gut organisierter Tour Guide. Anoj hat uns mit einem Chauffeur von einem grossen Tempel über Brief Garden nach Galle gebracht und uns geduldig unsere vielen Fragen beantwortet. Wir haben durch ihn sehr viel über Sri Lanka erfahren. Der Abschluss war Ein Traum-Curry in einem lokalen Restaurant. Herzlichen Dank Anoj für diese schönen Tag. "
"We were fortunate to come across with locals and Anoj during our recent trip to Galle - Srilanka. Anoj was very professional in dealing with us and making our trip very comfortable and went extra mile in accommodating all our requests. "
"Anoj was a perfect guide. He took us to several temples, a moonstone mine and also for a walk on the Galle fort. Even when we desperately needed a good coffee (rare in Sri Lanka), he knew exactly were to take us! It was a wonderful experience! Thank you very much!"
"Wir haben einen Tag gemeinsam mit Anoj verbracht. Wir haben mit Fort Galle begonnen, danach ein tolles Lunch am Strand, weiter ging es zum Schildkröten Observations Zentrum und schließlich zur Boots Safari.
Der ganze Tag war gut geplant, unser Guide konnte uns vieles Interessantes erzählen und war immer sehr freundlich.
Ein kurzer Abstecher bei ihm zu Hause mit erfrischendem Getränk hat uns sehr gut gefallen.
Den Tag haben wir in einem schönes Restaurant ausklingen lassen.
Insgesamt hatten alle einen wirklich tollen Tag. "
