“My family and I had a marvellous time in Sri Lanka in August 2024. Two weeks with Neel were full of travelling and discovering a beauty of Sri Lanka. We visited Pinnawala, Kandy, Ella, Sigiriya, Wilpattu and Hikkaduwa. We can't say in words how much we appreciate everything what our guide Neel did for us. He's servis was excellent, he was always in time. He found the best accommodation for us and always tried to show as as much as possible of Sri Lanka. To be honest, I never met anyone as responsible and dedicated to his job as Neel. He loves his country and knows a lot about its history and cultural heritage. Without Neel we wouldn't be able to see and understand Sri Lanka. My grandchildren loved him for his jokes and kindness. I highly recommend Neela's Tours Sri Lanka for everyone who wants not only visit but really enjoy and understand Sri Lankan soul. Thank you Neel !!! Breathnaigh ar níos lú”— Facebook review, 2024
“Спасибо Neel за все, что для нас сделал. С тобой этот отдых стал насыщенным. Мы увидели много разных интересных мест, ощутили много приятных эмоций. Всем советую, 100% не пожалеете. Спасибо! Очень скучаем! Thanks Neel for everything that you did for us. With you, this holiday became full. We saw many different interesting places, felt a lot of pleasant emotions. I advise everyone, 100% will not regret. Thank you! Very much we miss you Neel !.”— Facebook review, 2017
“I took my first adventure trip to Sri Lanka with my husband and friends for 14 days, guided by Sendahandi Neel Priyantha De Silvia, an exceptional guide whose humanity, knowledge of the territory and the environment impressed me very much. They also invited us to their house for a typical Sri Lankan dinner, immersing ourselves in their culture by eating without forks, that is, with our hands... an authentic experience. The tour included several stops and all were beautiful: I was particularly struck by Adam's Peak, the tea plantations of Ceylon and Sigiriya, as well as many other splendid places. For me it was a beautiful and unforgettable trip. I highly recommend it.”— Tripadvisor review, 2013
