 Verified A valuable added value for your trip! Shammi’s presence made all the difference during our trip to Srilanka: attentive and prepared driver, he “escorted” us for all 13 days of our tour always available and enthusiastic to get “caught up” as much as possible in the experience in his country. You could really feel how much he wanted us to come back satisfied. Shammi speaks fluent English, her car is impeccable, clean and comfortable. The fact that in addition to being a driver he is also a guide was a great added value, allowing us to enrich our trip with unscheduled activities and stops that we enjoyed so much (from a really “authentic” cooking class, to a visit to the turtle center, Marble beach and much more) or to learn about anecdotes and details of the history, spirituality and other peculiarities of this dream island.Gentle, easygoing, tireless, witty and very competent, it was a real pleasure to share with him this journey, of which I will have a beautiful memory. Super recommended!

 Verified Like a good friend showing you around his home country We came across Shammy through a travel agency. And what can we say? He was an absolute blessing for us. For more than a week, Shammy drove us around Sri Lanka and, with great enthusiasm, introduced us to his beautiful country and its culture. With his thoughtful manner and constant suggestions on what else we could do if we felt like it, Shammy greatly enriched our trip and gave us insights that we would not otherwise have had. Particularly noteworthy is his enormous wealth of knowledge about the history and culture of Sri Lanka, which he gladly shared with us. Shammy is therefore not only a very reliable driver who always made us feel safe in the car, but also a great guide and, thanks to his humorous and empathetic manner, someone you would enjoy spending a week with. In fact, spending time with Shammy in Sri Lanka felt a bit like having a good friend showing us around his home country. Thank you very much for making our trip so unforgettable, dear Shammy!

 Verified Wonderful professional tour service would definitely recommend We did a 12 day tour with Traveler’s Mind before going on for a few days on the beaches. We already had a rough itinerary in mind and worked with them to finalise the details. They recommended some great hotels and activities. We were picked up at the airport and chauffeured between hotels and each day taken to various activities from visiting waterfalls to a safari at Yala national park. The driver Razzi was very professional and informative and friendly. Highlights of the trip for us where Sigiriya Rock and the Yala national park safari where we were lucky enough to see Leopards. I would definitely recommend them
