Excellent planning and care
Sisira planned with us an 8 day custom tour with 10 days notice. He listened to our requests, acommunicated daily and responded quickly. His trustee colleague Tony was the same and he was our safe driver who offered extra suggestions on experiences and provided lots of knowledge about Sri Lanka. They even managed to get us tickets in the ‘sold out’ Blue train trip. I highly recommend this his tour agency.

Sisira - a natural naturalist
We visited Sri Lanka in February 2022 just before the fuel crisis kicked off, spending 16 days in the company of Sisira. From the moment he picked us up to the moment he dropped us off he was great company and a terrific guide. Our trip took us north from Colombo as far as Jaffna then down through the centre and back across to the west coast. Sisira has strong cultural and political knowledge which he shared regularly; his great skill, however, is his outstanding knowledge of the natural world and particularly birding. We saw between 100-150 species on our trip without it feeling like it was the only reason we were there (it wasn't). He knows the places to go and the things to see and do, plus his driving is measured and alert. He is easy going with his compatriots and attentive to his guests. We always felt if things got tough he would instantly be there for us. Apart from the birds, our highlights were tigers and elephants - he knows where to find them too. We'd highly recommend Sisira to anyone who wants an inside look at Sri Lanka in the company of a fine guide and travelling companion. Thanks for making our trip so enjoyable and memorable Sisira.

Sisira, Top Sri Lankan Guide
Sisira is an exceptional guide! Fauna and Flora Expert , Historical Expert, an exceptional birder. To top it all he is a wonderful guy. Not a bad family psychologist either. My daughter and I spent 10 wonderful days with him and he never missed a beat from the time we landed in Colombo until we left 11 days later. He was punctual, with a ready smile and always willing to compromise for our benefit. We had a wonderful , informative and fun filled time with him. Highly , very highly recommended

Our new friend
Our time in Sri Lanka was so special to my dad and I but it was made memorable by our guide Sisira who went above and beyond for us. His knowledge of Sri Lanka’s heritage and culture as well the country’s wildlife and birding is second to none! I found his positive outlook on life immensely contagious. Sisira has mountains of patience and quickly became not only our guide but a friend too.

C-Lanka tours
We have just got back from visiting Sri Lanka and highly recommend Sisaro and the tour company. Sisaro helped us plan an extensive itinerary, filled with exciting new destinations everyday. It was great to wake up every morning and already have the day planned. Sisaro made sure the hotels we stayed at were nice and to our liking. Our guide (Janaka) was amazing. He knew everything about all the places we went, pointing out rare birds on a safari, and telling us information about the temples we visited. The car was very clean and comfortable. Overall we had a fantastic stay in Sri Lanka thanks to Sisaro and Janaka, could not recommend them more!

Fantastic tour with Sisira
We could not recommend Sisira and C-Lanka tours highly enough. Even though we only had 3 days, Sisira helped us put together a great itinerary taking us from Kalpitiya to Sigiriya and Kandy. He is an excellent guide with an encyclopaedic knowledge of Sri Lankan history, monuments and animals (helping us spot things we would have never of seen otherwise). He is great company, always patient, and looked after us very well - even helping us out with transport and recommendations days after our tour “officially” ended. It really made our trip - thank you! Harry & Catherine (UK)

Great Holiday Excellent Guide
Our family of 4 just returned from an amazing 9 days in Sri Lanka with C-Lanka tours. Sisira was an excellent guide bringing us around the Southern region of Sri Lanka. From the time that we contacted him, he was prompt in his responses and patient with our queries providing us with a great itinerary. We appreciate that he made sure our accommodations and meals were excellent. He ensured that his car was clean and stocked with water. We had a great time at the National Parks and Sisira’s great knowledge on the native wildlife, especially birds, made the trip even more enjoyable. We learned about the history and culture through our travel around the region with Sisira. Sisira was very accommodating to our requests and would go out of his way to ensure they are fulfilled. We would definitely recommend a visit to Sri Lanka and his tour service.

The best choice for the best destination
I could not recommend Sisira and Sri Lanka more. We did a 15 day tour to Sri Lanka with Sisira as our guide. He recommended some of places to visit and helped us define our route. Besides that he revealed great knowledge about the country and its history. We had the privilege to have a more personal view of the country that you simply can’t get on through your Lonely Planet. We loved the country, its people, landscapes, monuments and history. It was a beautiful experience and even though we were in the country when the terrorist attacks occurred we always felt safe and confortable and Sisira had a major role in that.

Tour guide and Sisira Kumara
We had the luck of finding Sisira online before we came to Sri Lanka and we are so happy we did he is a consummate professional and a great advert for the wonderful kind people of Sri Lanka. Sisira defamed our trip a lot more memorable with his local knowledge and guidance in things we where unsure of, we also ate at some lovely local places we would never have found. I can’t recommend this guide highly enough he is a true gentleman and an expert in his field. Thank you Sisira from Dave n Sarah, Deano n Ang & the kids Sammy, Freddie & Emily
