wonderful journey - we had a fantastic time during the tour. first we started with the safari which was amazing we saw more than 70 elephant. next was the sigiriya rock aka The lions' rock, it was a very gigantic rock to climb. next the dambulla cave which was half the height of sigiriya, there was also a beautiful temple at the top. Overall this was a great experience.

Unforgettable Journey in my life. - It was one of the best tours had in my life.I knew its a full day with 3 activities, but I really enjoyed it climbing sigiriya and dambulla. I was planning to go down south in srilanka but finally I booked this tour,Now I feel I made the right decision. Sigiriya and Dambulla is amazing and I never thought to do all 3 in one day, but thanks JK travels and my guide janaka arranging such a lovely tour for me. Really worth for the money you paid.

Friendly and helpful agent with flexibility - JK Travels can customize the trip flexibly. I really wanted to go to Rose Quartz Mountain and have an astrologer's consultation, so started early to go to astrologers office and replaced Safari with Rose quartz mountain. From reservation process to the end of the tour, everything was smooth thanks to the manager and driver. This selfish schedule could have never been possible without JK Travels. Thank you!!

14.5 hour day. Not an accurate description on Viator - Good day but a number of things to warn fellow travellers: 1. If coming from Colombo it is a minimum of 14 hours. It is a long day and the timing is not correct on the website 2. Bring water. This was not provided and it was hot! 3. Be warned about the extra fees. The price on Viator is not the whole price and I was given no advance warning when booking what the extra was. 4. Bring US dollars 5. The sights were amazing but it is a lot to cover in one day. We were exhausted 6. Our driver did not speak a lot of English so read up the background in advance

IT'S A FRAUD! DON'T BOOK! - IT'S A FRAUD.! They make you pay more than 100€ for the booking, then they write you an email where they say they ask you more money for performing the tour, so nothing is included in the initial price. Then, when you try to ask the money back, because you understand it's a fraud, they don't refund you. I attach a screenshot of the extra money they asked me. Don't book this!
