We had a great time with Dilan on our Galle Day Tour today, it was my friends birthday so he decorated the riverboat with balloons, had a cake and flowers for her and we went on our tour. We saw lots of different animals - how they can spot them from such a distance is incredible as we certainly hadn’t spotted them!
We then went to the Turtle Conservation Project where we had the most surreal time with the turtles taking in the history, culture and work that this centre does. We then went to the tsunami memorial before moving on to Galle itself - a fantastic day and a fantastic guide

Dilan was an exceptional and knowledgeable guide on our two tours with him in Sr Lanka. We did the Galle Boat tour on the River Bentota which took us into the Mangroves where we saw Crocs, Snakes, Komodo Dragons and lots of other wildlife native to Sri Lanka. After the boat tour in the Mangroves we headed off to a Sea Turtle Sanctuary - which we researched before we went as honestly not sure how we feel about animal tourism - but these guys were very warm and welcoming and took us through how they encourage poachers to either bring them the Turtle eggs or pay them to leave them alone. We saw new hatchet tortoises and a couple of albino ones who would not survive in the wild - decent conservation effort and high standards. All in all great tour - five stars!

Without doubt one of the favourite city in Sri Lanka.
Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed by the team, our names were mentioned on the board and we felt welcomed and with such a friendly atmosphere we had a fantastic start!
The guide and tour was extremely good, very flexible (appreciate this!) and for that they deserves a special thanks. We had a great day there, which obviously also added up to the experience.
Many thanks again and I highly recommend to anyone whoever planing to travel Sri Lanka!

Jayasak/ Dilan knows the whole island and knows what to see and where to eat and live. They can also pick up and deliver you at the airport .
Our tour to Ella , Nuwara Eliya, Kandy and Colombo was a Very Nice experience for us with Comfortable car and good hotels and tickets for the train from Ella to Nuwara Eliya. Dilan made our tour perfect. He has a lot of knowledge and is also a very good driver, is calm and comfortable .
We certainly can recommend Jayasak for your next tour to Sri Lanka.

At the beginning of the year I went to Sri Lanka with my husband and one friend. We found Dilan here on Trip Advisor, and booked the Galle Day Tour with a few changes, adding some other places that we wanted to visit. Dilan was very helpful on setting up a tour that would suit us. We enjoyed so much, that we went out for another tour on the next day, to visit some other places that we saw on the internet. He also dropped us off at the airport on our way back.
He really knows the places and its history. The car is comfortable and he drives safe. He is very kind, polite and reliable.
I really recommend this tour.
