    Bernard was our chauffeur during a two week visit to Sri Lanka, and was an excellent driver and tour guide during on what was our first visit to the country. Bernard was friendly, polite, extremely knowledgeable and full of interesting stories and facts about the many areas we visited and we always felt safe in his very capable hands. The car was fully air-conditioned and Bernard always had everything we needed in the car, including an emergency sarong for temple visits and a bottle of water to cool down after being out in the heat. I can highly recommend Red Dot tours based on our positive experience with Bernard.

    Very poor in holding and responding back to emails and it’s clients. Have been trying to communicate with Sachini at red dot/fabulous tours and keep giving fake promises about information getting back with information. And I never heard until now(more than 2.5 months). Frustrating and disappointing service

    We recently returned from a last-minute trip to Sri Lanka, with a tour and hotels organized by Red Dot. From our first contact by WhatsApp/email through to arrival and the whole time that we were there they have been excellent! All communication with Dulmini in the office whilst planning our trip was very slick, she was very good at planning an itinerary with our limited time, suggesting and adapting to what we wanted and organizing hotels. We particularly enjoyed the tuk tuk tour of Galle Fort. On arrival, we were really well looked after by our guide/chauffeur Bandula who I cannot recommend highly enough! He was very thoughtful and flexible, going far above and beyond to ensure that we maximized our time there and taking us to visit some amazing sites and fit in a safari! Nothing was too much of a problem and he is a credit to the company. Thank you for an excellent experience, it was sadly too short and we will definitely be coming back to explore more of Sri Lanka soon with Red Dot! In the meantime we totally recommend Red Dot to anyone planning a tour of Sri Lanka, it is an amazing country. Thank you!

    We needed a van and a driver for part of a visit to Sri Lanka where we had quite variable plans and needed significant flexibility. Dulmini from Red Dot organised an excellent driver (Udesh) to take us around in a Toyota KDH van. The process was straightforward and transparent. Highly recommended.

    Anyone thinking of traveling to Sri Lanka, especially if you need a driver, reliable bus with A/C and someone with local knowledge, then you can't go past Red dot tours. From the moment we booked them, right from pick up from the airport and drop off at the end of our 2 week stay, they were super friendly, efficient, prompt and reliable. Thanks to all from Red dot tours. Especially Kosala from the office, who managed our booking, Tharanga, who was our driver for a week and Shantha, our driver for the second week. These guys were unbelievable. They even accommodated us by fitting their vehicle with a baby seat for our little son. Highly recommend Red dot tours to anyone.

    Myself and my husband have recently returned from a 16 night trip to Sri Lanka where we got married and had our honeymoon. We were overwhelmed by the thought of planning such an important day in a foreign country while in the midst of a global pandemic. This is where Red Dot came in and made it such a smooth experience for us. We were dealing with Dinu who we cannot thank enough. She helped us secure our visas, advised on legal paper works required for the wedding, put us in contact with our amazing wedding planner (Thilini from Resplendent Ceylon), arranged all covid requirements and of course put together our tour itinerary! I mean it when I say there was literally nothing we had to do other than show up and enjoy the holiday. Like all tourists we had to do some PCR tests during our stay. In each case the medical team came to our hotel to perform the test resulting in zero disruption to our holiday. We stayed in a total of 6 hotels while in Sri Lanka and ALL were amazing! The quality of food and service were exceptional. We didn’t think it would be possible to visit tourist destinations given the restrictions but were delighted to hear we could and we managed visits to Yala national Park, Ceylon tea trails, the temple of the tooth, Sigiriya fortress and Polonnaruwa. We smoothly transitioned between each destination with the help of our tour guide Indika. He was amazing and we would recommend requesting him for your tour. He is highly knowledgeable, passionate about Sri Lanka and most importantly a safe driver! You can tell from the reception he received at each of the hotels that he is well respected by the staff. When it came to the wedding day itself we again must thank Dinu who helped organize the day on such short notice. She presented us with options and acted quickly to ensure enough notice was given to make sure our celebration was legal. We decided to choose Cape Weligama by Resplendent Ceylon for the special day and we couldn’t have been happier with how they looked after us during our stay and on the day itself. It is the most breathtaking destination. Our experience with Red Dot was simply amazing. A piece of our heart is in Sri Lanka now and we will be back and we will be using Dinu, Indika and team again. Thank you so so much, Suzanne and Ciarán

    Delivered brilliantly against my brief. Chauffeur/guide Tharu, was great company, very informative and helpful. Really interesting overnights from home-stays to one-off hotels. Email correspondence dealt with efficiently and promptly by Lahiru - and payment into a UK bank account. Planning a new trip north of Negombo next year already.

    Had an absolutely amazing time exploring Sri Lanka, and the whole trip was seamlessly organized by Red Dot. Our main contact, Dulmini, did a stellar job. All the arrangements were spot-on, and her recommendations for hotels were nothing short of fantastic. While the booking process was smooth, a bit more communication before the trip would have been the cherry on top. Once we landed in Sri Lanka, the Red Dot team welcomed us with professionalism all the way. They introduced us to our driver and tour guide, Athula, who turned out to be a gem. Athula wasn't just a guide; he was a walking encyclopedia on Sri Lanka's culture, history, and nature. His insights added a whole new dimension to our stay, creating memories that will stick with us forever. Athula went above and beyond, delivering experiences that we'll be talking about for years. His deep understanding of the island, its people, and its wildlife made our journey incredibly rich. We soaked up every bit of knowledge he shared about Sri Lanka, its inhabitants, and its diverse wildlife. For us, Athula wasn't just a tour guide; he was the magic behind our unforgettable trip. We wholeheartedly recommend Red Dot Tours, especially if you get the chance to have Athula as your guide. Trust me, booking with this dynamic duo will make your Sri Lanka adventure something truly special.
