"Our day of sightseeing in Kandy with Buddhima was amazing! She is incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, and able to design a tour to fit your needs and interests. She gives an excellent cultural and historical background to Sri lankan culture, can show you all the best short eats and sweets, and help you find the best deal on tea! Can't recommend her enough! By the end of the day, it felt like we were spending time with a friend, rather than a guide. "

Wonderful tour with Buddhima
"Buddhima was a wonderful guide, very knowledgeable and we had a great time learning about Sri Lankan spices, sweets, fruits and food from her. "
"Our time with Buddhima was a highlight of our trip to Sri Lanka. She is a warm, generous, and incredibly knowledgeable host who made learning about Kandy’s history and culture feel like a conversation with an old friend. Beyond the fantastic food, including some incredible local spots we never would have found on our own, we had so much fun throughout the day. Buddhima’s passion for her country is infectious, and her perfect English made it easy to dive deep into local stories. Highly recommended for anyone wanting an authentic, joyful experience in Kandy!""
"We were a mother and two adult daughters who booked Buddhima for a food tasting, and it turned out to be one of the best things we did during our two-week holiday.
Buddhima began by talking with us about our expectations, what we had already eaten and experienced, and then created a plan for the day based on that. We visited four different places and enjoyed amazing food, sweets, and fruits we would never have tried on our own. In addition, we got to see and experience more of the real Sri Lanka, and received explanations about culture, customs, and traditions we encountered along the way.
As a person, Buddhima was calm, pleasant, knowledgeable, and always had a smile ready. She seemed to know almost everyone we met along the way, and it was clear that she is a person who is highly appreciated in the local community.
Three hours went by far too quickly — we could easily have spent the whole day with Buddhima! If you are going to Kandy, book this immediately; it is our strongest recommendation. We send Buddhima a hug and hope to see her again."

Attentive & experienced!
"Buddhima is a very attentive host. She showed us a very nice foodcourt and took us to the market and the oldest bakery in town. Her english is perfect, so we did not have to refrase a lot , this made it a very comfortabel experience."
"We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Kandy with Buddhima. She was an outstanding guide. From our initial communications and meeting arrangements to the actual tour, the organization was perfect. She kindly accommodated our requests and patiently answered all our questions. As we had combined two tours we go to spend the whole day with her, we learnt all about the culture and history of the city, saw hidden gems off the beaten track and tasted the most delicious food and explored the local markets. A day to remember! "
"Our street food tour with Buddhima was wonderful. Buddhima is so lovely, generous and knowledgeable, it was like spending the evening with a good friend. Buddhima introduced us to lots of different foods, answered all our many questions, and shared so much about life in Sri Lanka. She also gave us some great tips for the rest of our trip. If we return to Kandy we would definitely do the tour again - there is always more food to discover - and we would recommend Buddhima as a guide without hesitation."
"Buddhima is incredible. We throughly enjoyed our time with her. She is so knowledgeable and clearly has a passion for her work and her country.
We were a family with young children and allergy concerns. Buddhima flawlessly navigated children and allergies， which allowed for a wonderful experience. She communicated ahead of time to make sure we were satisfied with the plans. "
"My mother and I were in Kandy for our first night in Sri Lanka so opted for a food tour with Chandana and had a lovely evening. Chandana is very knowledgeable, friendly and kind and his choice of food was perfect. We had the opportunity to try many local Sri Lankan dishes at a variety of restaurants and markets, learned a lot about Sri Lanka, the culture, people and history and enjoyed getting to know Chandana. By the end of the tour, we were full and happy!"
