“Our driver and tour guide Sara was excellent. He spoke good English and our communication was good and clear even from the day before for confirmation. He made sure we had cold beers, excellent food with a spectacular view. The river rafting was great fun and not too challenging. The guide was great. We recommend this experience. We also went to a lovely tea factory with generous tea tasting and delicious iced Macha. Thank you Sara for your excellent Sri Lankan kindness and hospitality.”
You’ll leave Kandy in a private vehicle for Kitulgala, where guides prepare you for three major and four minor Kelani River rapids. The day also includes a tea factory, herbal garden, woodcarving house, temple, lunch, and one beer. Ask about extra rafting and boat charges before booking.
“We had a great day with Saraa. He was very kind and helpful. Also, he was a responsible and a safe driver. Moreover, the water rafting was really nice. It is cheaper to book with them, and pay for the rafting yourself instead of booking the full package deals, like some other offers out there. Since tea factory, wood crafting have free entrances. So we are happy to recommend them :)”
Pick a grade, a length or something to bolt on.
