About me:My name is Kesara, and I have had the incredible opportunity to work as a tour guide for SkyHaven Tours. With a passion for cultural immersion, adventure, and wildlife, I have led numerous tours that have provided travelers with unforgettable experiences in this beautiful country. As a tour guide for SkyHaven Tours, I have had the pleasure of showcasing the rich cultural heritage of Sri Lanka to visitors from around the world. Whether exploring ancient cities, visiting breathtaking temples, or interacting with locals, I strive to create authentic and immersive experiences that allow travelers to truly connect with the heart and soul of this remarkable destination. In addition to cultural exploration, I have also led adventurous expeditions, taking travelers off the beaten path to witness the awe-inspiring natural beauty Sri Lanka has to offer. From hiking through lush tea plantations in Ella to embarking on wildlife safaris in Yala National Park, my goal is to provide thrilling and memorable adventures that highlight the country's diverse landscapes. To better serve our international guests, I am fluent in English and Chinese, ensuring effective communication and a smooth experience for Chinese-speaking travelers. I believe in the power of language to bridge cultures and create meaningful connections.

There are so many different national parks, where you have the possibility to go on a safari. All the parks offer great game drives and the scenary is beautiful. Even the lesser known national parks are home to Elephants, Deers, Crocodiles and so many other animals. So it's worth spending a bit more time and not only go for the most famous parks, especially since Sri Lanka is more affordable than other countries. We had a super guide for two weeks, who was so friendly and passionate about his job. It made the whole experience very enjoyable. Happy to recommend SkyHaven Tours and This Tour

I felt really good being part of his group. Some of my personal highlights were definitely the hike up Sigiriya Lion's Rock, the Kandy Cultural Show, and the safaris, one in Minneriya to see elephants, and another in Yala where we saw leopards and a bear. Our group was so lucky because we got to see all the animals up close. It was an amazing experience! Overall, I had an incredible time on the trip and would definitely recommend SkyHaven Tours to others.

We climbed Sigiriya, visited temples, tried delicious local food, hiked in the mountains, saw stunning waterfalls, and so much more. this tour had it all. I chose to book with a local tour operator because they know the country so well, and they truly didn’t disappoint. The highlight for me was the safari in Yala, it was my very first safari experience, and I was lucky enough to see a leopard! I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Sri Lanka for the first time.

Lahiru took care of everything, and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. My driver and guide, Kesara, was fantastic. He was not only friendly and professional but also incredibly knowledgeable about the animals and birds. If there was a bird he didn’t immediately recognize, he’d quickly identify it using his field guide. Every time I mentioned a specific animal I hoped to see, he managed to find it without fail. Truly impressive. If you value convenience, comfort, and a well-organized experience, I highly recommend Skyhaven Tours. Sure, there might be cheaper options out there, but this was 100% worth it to simply relax and enjoy the journey. The lodging was stunning, the food was delicious, and the wildlife encounters were unforgettable. Huge thanks to Lahiru for organizing such a seamless trip. I had an amazing time in Sri Lanka and came away with so many memories and photos of beautiful, colorful birds!

After getting in touch with Lahiru, I found out there was no group tour available for my travel dates. Instead, Lahiru suggested a custom tour with fewer safaris and 4-star accommodations. He explained that doing all the safaris and staying at the same hotels would be too expensive for a single traveler. The new itinerary was 15 days long, with full-day safaris at each national park. The accommodations were great, and my driver and guide, Kesara, was fantastic. Thanks to Kesara for all the support and to Lahiru for the wonderful arrangements. I would definitely recommend this tour to any solo travelers who prefer traveling alone if group options aren't available
