A well organized tour, a perfect and pleasant driver.
We organized a 9-day tour with USP LANKA TOURS. Our driver, Dilruk, very careful, was also very available to adapt the tour to our specific requests. He also advised us very well during some visits.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words! We're happy to hear you had a great experience with Dilruk and enjoyed your 9-day tour. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you again soon!

Seamless memorable trip to Srikanka
We had a wonderful experience with Ups Lanka tours that we met at Kandy train station. We took a three week tour with our own driver Dumy who accompanied us he was so friendly kind helpful and professional and very sweet and patient with us our two little girls 6 and 8 yrs. It allowed us the flexibility, comfort and freedom to travel as we pleased and to adapt our intimerait even at the last minute. Our experience with him definitely made our trip even more enjoyable. Can’t recommend highly enough this agency !
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your valuable review on us, and really appreciate it. We would like to invite you to visit and explore the hidden beauty of this magical Island again. Big thank you for been with us :)

The kiss to Mister P
We arrived at 5 from France to Colombo. 5 22 year olds, with an idea of our itinerary but no concrete plans for the trip. So we came across a bit by chance at Colombo station on Ferdinando who after a few minutes had, according to our desires and needs, drawn our entire travel itinerary in Sri Lanka. So it was Mr P (Priyantha) who was our driver/guide for 16 days and we were not disappointed. For a group of 5 young adults with slightly backward and disorganized tendencies, it was the perfect complement. Always punctual, always fair and good advice when we had to recalculate our itinerary several times when our desires changed as the trip progressed. He has also always volunteered to talk with us about Sri Lanka and give us his vision of his country’s history and current events, which is a huge plus when you visit a country you don’t know! In short, we were never disappointed. Mr. P was always there when we needed without ever being invasive when we wanted to enjoy each other. If you have a choice, do not hesitate, go for it with Mister P!
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your valuable review on us, and really appreciate it. We would like to invite you to visit and explore the hidden beauty of this magical Island again. Big thank you for been with us :)

Chame the big boss
We have been travel around sri lanka with my friend and we found this company in Colombo train station (the man who offered this was so nice, i dont remember the name, Fernando or something like this🤘🏼🙏🏼). We boocked a tour from Kandy until Arugam bay. The experience was so good but the best part was our f**ing big friend Chame, not just our driver, our friend We miss him so much if you are reading this just say that we love youuu big bosss!!! He took care of us and was gentle and nice and I just can say he is an amazing person. He dont let that no one take advantage of you. Chame "el indomable" always in our heart! Cosme&Uri (Hope can you understand my english)
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your valuable review on us, and really appreciate it. We would like to invite you to visit and explore the hidden beauty of this magical Island again. Big thank you for been with us :)

Why this scores 70
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
August Kandy Festive Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Colombo.
How much does August Kandy Festive Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $950 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Colombo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does August Kandy Festive Tour take?
+
Plan for about 168 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Colombo is not rushed.
Is August Kandy Festive Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Colombo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule August Kandy Festive Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is August Kandy Festive Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 168-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book August Kandy Festive Tour?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Colombo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Colombo and add a light layer if any part of the 168-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does August Kandy Festive Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Colombo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Colombo?
+
On Outty we rank every Colombo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Flexi dates on all 5 to 7 days packages for car and English speaking driver, Sri Lanka Personal Tour Driver in private vehicle, 08 Nights in Magical Sri Lanka. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Colombo?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Colombo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
