RE: VISITING SRI LANKA. We are seasoned travelers lucky enough to have seen the world. One of the last frontiers on our list was SRI LANKA but we had to wait until the political situation straightened out. Thus, SRILANKA is in the early stages of developing their tourism infrastructure. To properly see this beautiful, sometimes puzzling Country, you need someone knowledgeable, trustworthy and above all a good driver!!. Besides Colombo, which we saw on our own, we wanted to see the countryside in as much detail as possible. We hired an independent operator, that has been in business for more than 30 years, a safe driver and also a good value!. J. D. NANDASENA TOURS. We spent ten day in the capable hands of NANDASENA (NANDE), seeing the country with its religious heritage and beautiful countryside. On route we changed our minds a few times, he was very happy to accommodate us. Be aware that his packages do not include entrance fees and a few other extras, which in fact is a plus if enroute you find do not want to see the attraction, you don’t pay for it. This makes the basic price for car and driver reasonable. Nande is a man you can trust to not steer you into buying things you don’t really want or need. Thanks NANDE.

When started our 10 day tour with a driver in Sri Lanka we had no idea that we would end our tour with a new friend. Nande expertly guided us through Sri Lanka and took every opportunity to share his country with us. It can be hard to hire someone over the internet - you never know what kind of person you are hiring. Nande is truly one of a kind. Nande is always the one smiling - though stressful chaotic roads, torrential rain fall (during the rainy season) and curious travellers. Although he has probably answered every one of our questions at least 50 times in the past, he was always patient and kind. He always remembers what interests you. For example, one day we had asked about a red banana - the next day he actually picked on up so we could try it. The long car journeys led to some enlightened conversations - and we both learned about each other. Nande shared a lot about his family and the Sri Lanken culture with us. By the end of the 10 days we felt like we were a part of his family. If you are looking for someone who will go along at your pace - whether fast or slow; who will make sure you have everything you need and someone who is trustworty and reliable, Nande is your best option. And, if he is already booked he will recommend someone.

We spent 2 weeks in Sri Lanka, therefrom 12 days travelling around with Nande. Nande is a good driver. He drove very safely. Not easy with the sometimes chaotic traffic on Sri Lankas roads. Nande has good knowledge on all the historical monuments too and he did very interesting explanations. We had very relaxing vacations. Nande managed the reservations for the hotels as well. We were fully satisfied with this. The hotels were nice and clean, and according to our desired standard. If you need a trustable driver and manager for your next Sri Lanka trip, i can highly recommend Nande to you.

We spent 9 days in Sri Lanka and hired Nande as our guide after hearing several positive recommendations. All of them were true. As a guide, Nande has an excellent approach because he is as involved in your trip as you would like him to be. He adapts to spontaneous requests and always stays patient despite challenges on the road or otherwise. We especially enjoyed the cultural triangle and cities of the ancient kingdoms of which Nande is very knowledgeable. He brings the ruins back to life and helps your take everything at your pace. We were always in good hands whether we needed a safari driver in the national park or just another king coconut. If you plan the details of you trip for yourself in advance, Nanda will know how to guide you there; or he can help you plan with his wealth of fair and interesting recommendations.

Hired Nande as my guide because I was looking to do as much as possible in 2 weeks, and his itinerary had a lot packed into it, for a very good price. He speaks very good English and that was also a major factor in my decision to hire Nande. He collected us from the airport and has been with us everywhere since then. At every opportunity he has shown us extra sights that we would not have known about had we not hired him. He even managed to organise a game of cricket for me and my friend with a group of locals from the guest house!! One of myany highlights from the 2 weeks. I would highly recommend Nande to anybody who is wanting to come to Sri Lanka and especially for those who are wanting to fit as much activity and entertainment as possible into their holiday. his details are: nandasena369@hotmail.com nanasena369 (Skype) nanda369 (facebook)

Hi all, We have been traveling in Sri Lanka for 8 days, 2 adults and 2 children aged 04 & 10. We have had pleasure of Nande for the duration of our sightseeing adventure. Nande has been knowledgeable and a fantastic source of information about his beautiful Island. His stories about the history and the legends of Sri lanka have entertained the whole family, breathed life into the Temples and especially the ruins of Sigiriya Rock. We have been traveling as a family for 4 months and had several drivers. Nande has proved himself reliable and thoughtful especially in regard to the children nothing has been too much trouble, and his advice even in simple shopping expeditions has been invaluable. Our jurney ends with a week in Tangalle and it has been a sad farewell but a pleasure to have had Nande be a part of our family for this short time. Highly recommended.

Dear Nande,
Our tour with your personal warm and friendly company made our short visit to your wonderful country, an unforgettable, amazing holiday. Though so short and so many phone calls and work issues, we loved Sri Lanka. Your dedication and effort, not to mention your understanding to all our changes and requests are well appreciated.
We did not want to leave Sri Lanka and we will come back! Needless to mention that you will be in charge of our next visit which will be longer!!!!
Thank you so much. You do a great service to your country by your warm welcoming.
I had a little gift for you in my bag which I forgot to give you. Either when we come or when we send you more customers, it will be sent to you.
Your friends
Dana and Arnon Sorek

Arrived at 3.30a.m and were met by a smiling face of Nande to welcome us to Sri Lanka. He was to be our driver, guide and friend for the next 7 days. He proved to be not only knowledgeable, informative but also an excellent driver at all times. His calm nature was demonstrated when we were tied up by the inefficiency of one hotel who had given our room away which meant him having to find alternative accommodation at short notice. His patience was somewhat tested by frequent questions while he must have had asked many times during his 28 years of guiding [& my husband’s quick sense of humour – trying at times!!]. Our total enjoyment of Sri Lanka and all it has to offer has been competed in no small ways to Nande’s total professionalism and his care which has meant we have always felt safe. [given the least trying road conditions and the unpredictability of many other drivers] he has always ensured we have been treated fairly by anyone with who we were doing business. Nande is a gentlemen and a very fine ambassador for his homeland. It has been a privilege to have known him. Our very grateful thanks to Nande for making our trip to Sri Lanka a holiday of a lifetime. Paddy Caroline Edwards – England T/Phone:+44-0775-2642458

We just came back from 2.5 weeks in Sri Lanka. Gorgeous country, great people, beautiful landscapes and great food. Took me 3 months to organize the trip together with Nande, emailing back and forth. Nande managed to arrange us a great trip with lovely accommodations exactly what we were looking for. He is very knowledgeable, has the right answers to every question, great and safe driver and very very honest. We have only warm words and great memories from our time together. Any Israeli planning to go to Sri Lanka and has any questions regarding Nande, his service and Sri Lanka overall please feel free to give me a call 052-6255555 or email me. THANK YOU NANDE! From all of us, Odelia, Ari, Hili, Yoni & Oded Margolis.

Our family 2 boys (10 and 14), Shanti and I had a fantastic 2 weeks with Nandasend (Nande). He is good with the kids and knows all about Srilanka. We felt we needed another week to have done justice to the Sigiriya-Polonoruwa-Sigiriya-Kandy-Nuera Elia-Adams Peak-Ella-Yala-Bentota trip. I would recommend him highly for your Srilanka tour.
