    We wanted to visit Ambuluwawa Tower and spontaneously decided to extend the tour to Embekke and Lankathilake temples. Lesley was an excellent and super nice driver who told us many little details of places we were passing through. He was our guide on the locations and translated the locals' information on the rare occasion he wasn't knowledgeable about the specifics. He is super easy to talk to and speaks good English. He asked us if we wanted to visit some other specific places, but was never pushy about it and respected our wishes. We would have taken him up on the offer, were we not on a tight schedule. He charged a very fair price for a half day's work, especially considering the current inflation of the rupee und rising gas prices. We can really recommend riding with him, you'll have a very good time!

    Lesley was very polite, spoke perfect Hindi and English, drove exceptionally well and safe, knew all the roads very well, well informed about all the destinations. I wish him all the best and recommend everyone to use his tuktuk safari, it is really worth your time and money!!!

    The best guide you can imagine We were allowed to spend 2.5 days with Lesley. Lesley is a lovely and warm person who has managed to showcase his home in a very special way. We have seen so many beautiful places: hidden Buddha temples, rides on elephants, visited a tea plantation, we ate local food which was delicious and really cheap. At a fruit stand he explained all the fruits and we could try everything. We were in an Ayuverde garden with a guide. We have seen in the 2.5 days so much that fits in a whole vacation. He also told us a lot about Buddhism at the temple sightseeing. He is an incredibly generous person with a big heart. We can only recommend him wholeheartedly. Our suggestion, let you put together a tour of him. Best for several days. He can pick you up at the airport if you want. I can not imagine a better arrival than being greeted with his smile. In this way you lose any fear of contact to this country. You can see how incredibly respectful people can be here if you treat them with respect. He even organized the train ride to Ella for us. And not only that, he also organized our follow-up stations where his cousin took over. We are incredibly thankful that we met him. And we could rave about him for hours, but make your own experiences with him. If you have any ideas about your tour you can tell him that, of course, he will make a great tour for you!

    Want to go on a tour around Sri Lanka in proper way? Look no further! Had an amazing experience. Guide+transport (via authentic tuktuk)+translator. But that's a technical side, there's something magic about spending time with local, which sincerely tries to get you the best experience. If I ever will go back - I`m booking him in advance.

    We had the most amazing time with Lesley. He's smart, resourceful, fluent in multiple languages, and very kind and helpful. He also knows every restaurant and shop in Kandy, every tourist attraction with exact details. Driving around with him was great and we had a very efficient trip. Great job Leslie! Highly recommended.

    I was on a 4-week clinical placement at the National Hospital in Kandy during the Summer of 2023. During my stay, Lesley was my go-to man to drive me around Kandy and the local area. He was 100% reliable and always went beyond to make sure I was comfortable and on time. Lesley is kind, courteous, and generous, and he has a great knowledge of Kandy and the surrounding area, being able to provide information and tours. I would 100% recommend Lesley to anyone looking for a local guide and driver for their stay in Kandy.

    Nice excursion, can definitely recommend! Lesley has also shown several interesting spots on the way to the actual sights and told us dozens of interesting facts about Sri Lankaw while driving tuk tuk. :) And everything for a very reasonable price!

    Lesley is a kind human with a love for his town and Sri Lanka. He drove us around Kandy a couple of times and showed us a lot of beautiful places. Very fair prices, much less than any other Tuk Tuk driver! I absolutely recommend to everyone to go on a ride with him!

  • 5/5 Theodor M. 11 months ago on Google
    Lesley is super nice, and really knows the city well. He'll for sure give you the best tour possible for a very reasonable price. Not only will he give you a great tour, but also show you all the extra places and things on the way to all the stops. I highly recommend you to book a tour with him, you will definitely not regret it, and it will for sure be the best tour you can get here.

    Lesley firstly would bring us to the trainstation but since tickets were hard to get, he offered to bring us by tuktuk to Nuwara Eliya. We had a pleasant ride with lots of sightseeing to our wishes. Thank you Lesley👍

    We had an amazing day tour with Lesley. He took us to many interesting places that we haven’t heard about before. He has a great knowledge about every aspect of the culture and history of Sri Lanka. But what’s even more important: he is just a really nice guy and fun to be with. We really enjoyed the time with him and can recommend a tour with him to everyone who wants to have an authentic experience with a real local. Thank you Lesley!

    Lesley, was our host in Kandy for two days. He showed us main attractions, but also some hidden gems you won't read about in your typical travel guide. He speaks very good English and knows the city like nobody else - highly recommended!

    (Translated by Google) All kindness and good work, ask him to take you to the place of breakfast, unsurpassed! (Original) Todo amabilidad y buen hacer, pedile que os lleve al lugar de los desayunos, insuperable!

    Leslie is a friendly person and charges nominal amount. Myself and 2 other friend were in the trip for 2 days . On 1st day we had a city tour of Kandy and 2nd day we had a trip to Nuawara Eliya. He showed us good places and we had a good time in the journey.Would suggest for any person who would like to visit in and around Kandy.

    Lesley is a really nice guy. I had two trips with him one in Kandy and another half way to Ella. Hi showed me a few nice places and stopped a few times on different "shops". E.g. a guy who produced honey with different flavours. Sure every one around whats to sell something. But at no place I had the feeling I must. We had nice and chatty trips and he always explained something. Thx Lesley.
