“Firstly thank you and your team for making the last minute arrangements to assist the conclusion of this tour given the rapidly changing developments with the coronavirus.We all appreciate the excellent work of you and the team, and Nish on the ground with Harshana on the train. I must express the group’s total respect and admiration for the work done by Nish throughout the tour. He is an absolutely excellent
tour guide, the best I have encountered in Sri Lanka, and hope that when we next return to Sri Lanka in less troubled times, we will be able to benefit from his leadership again!”

“Compared JF Tours rates with a few other operators for our trip in Dec2021 and they
came out the most cost effective. Their rep Katelen Fernando was very responsive on
mails and WhatsApp.However I would like to mention our driver/guide for our 8 day trip - Jeewa. He was the best and took real good care of us.
From making sure we were well informed of things happening in our area, to always being on time and going the extra mile to ensure we were comfortable.
I highly recommend you request for him on your next trip to Sri Lanka.”

“This is the third time we booked with JF Tours. Again we had another holiday of a lifetime in Sri Lanka. Jeewa the one and only guide/driver is phenomenal! Not only is
he happy and extremely attentive - his knowledge of the country is simply amazing from the cultural history, to fascinating botanical/wildlife facts,
navigating us around the country along steep mountain passes and coastal roads. He’s knowledg about removing bloodsucking leeches
came in handy during the unforgettable hike in the mountains after heavy rain 😎”

“We have recently returned to the UK from an 'out of this world, holiday of a lifetime' in Sri Lanka. Our Guide/Driver Jeewa was phenomenal!
Not only was he upbeat, happy and extremely attentive - his knowledge of the country was simply amazing from the cultural history, to fascinating
botanical/wildlife facts, navigating us around the country along steep mountain passes and coastal roads, stopping at places of interest along the way.
We are hugely appreciative to JF
Tours for their expertise in creating the perfect itinerary for us and for placing us in the very capable care of Jeewa.
We highly recommend this tour company - definitely 5* service!”

“This is my second time with JF tours and it just keeps getting better. We saw temples, forts, elephants, tea plantations and trains....
and not to be forgotten is the beach! The service and the flexibility provided
by JF tours, particularly Jeewa and Katelen, was outstanding. The highlight was the train and the nine arches bridge! Tiny turtles and ten ton whales.
We’re coming back!”

“Had a great time thanks to JF Tours. Katelan put together an excellent and realistic schedule to suit our
requirements. Responded to our mails
very quickly. Mihiran who doubled as a driver and guide did a great job. Always on time and his personal touch added
flavor to the whole trip.”

“We spent 16 days with a group of 6: 3 couples. It included several stops in a variety of
cities, villages and wildlife areas and was put together by Katalene. She did a great job
including interesting safaris, hikes, and cultural experiences. We marveled that every
hotel we stayed at was comfortable and most were very luxurious - melting away any
tiredness from our day activities. Throughout the trip Jeewa our guide extraordinare &
driver made us fall in love with Sri Lanka and showed us many things that we felt were
unique.

around the island safely. He also gave us good suggestions on what to add-on to make our itinerary smooth-sailing and enjoyable. He looked after us well throughout.”

“I had the pleasure of engaging Thushara to arrange my tour around Sri Lanka. Obviously the sights were amazing but what made the trip extra special was the services of my driver, Shantha. By being so efficient and dedicated, he ensured that my friend and I
could enjoy every minute. I recommend Thushara and Shantha unreservedly to anyone that appreciates honest, reliable and trustworthy advice and tourist services.”
