The man is a legend, he knows absolutely everyone and all the best things to see and places to go. It was like being driven around by a celebrity. Fantastic service, 100% must when visiting.

He was extremely helpful and took great care of both me and my family, especially since we were traveling with two children.
He arranged everything perfectly for us. The prices were not expensive! Thank you for everything!

Very friendly and professional driver. He helped us get around town and showed us all the hotspots for a fair and honest price. He also arranged our transfer from Kandy to Ella with no issues at all. Extremely reliable and highly recommended!
Great day out, driver was very informative and a good laugh
Amazing couple of hours with Pali. Initially we weren’t going to do much in Kandy, just Temple of the Tooth and not much else (it was our stopping pit from Sigiriya to Mirissa), but thanks to him we got a lot of context about said Temple and we watched a spectacular culture dance show. He also took us to the Gem Museum which I didn’t even know about and it was awesome. Great vibes and service on his part and I would definitely recommend to anyone who comes across him.
Best driver so far. Effektive, yet safe transport to the Ambawela Mountains and around Kandy. Very nice driver that has a lot of knowlegde.
We had a great day wirh Pali as our uktuk driver. He is a very nice, friendly and helpful guy. Drives really fast but very safely, we felt very comfortablen with him. Knows all the best places around Kandy. Totally recommend Pali as Kandy driver.
Totally loved the ride with Pali today 11am to 6pm he was with me and showed me around the kandy
A family man, attentive and kind, with extensive experience in his work, who will take you to all the places of interest and stay with you until you return to your hotel. He’ll take you to local shops where you can compare jewelry, souvenirs, spices, clothing, and herbal products, and he’ll help you get the best prices.
You’ll definitely feel safe with him.
Thank you so much, Pali!
A full-day excursion. Visiting different things. Very good and very friendly, always attentive, asking if we needed anything.
It was a great day with Pali😀😀
We see a lot of things 😆
Thank you so much. It was a pleasure 🙏🙏🙏🙏
He is a nice driver and gives during the ride extra information about Sri Lanka and the culture. He also stops if you want something to eat or to drink
Pali was a great guide! He took us to the cave temple in Dambulla and Sigiriya and stopped whenever we wanted something. He was very flexible, definitely recommend a tour with him!
