Reviewed June 19, 2023

We were four friends travelling together and were spending two weeks in Sri Lanka with our tour guide Anthony. I am so happy that we chose him and his company to show us the best that Sri Lanka has to offer! Having him along our trip made us feel very safe and he was so helpful to make our trip as amazing as possible. I will highly recommend booking a trip with him!

AMAZING adventure! anthony is awsome

Reviewed April 19, 2023

I have just returned from a 6 day escorted tour with Anthony from Ipha Lanka tours.Myself & my sister were visiting Sri Lanka for 10days and we came across Anthony via Tour HQ.Anthony himself kindly accepted our last minute booking and planned our 6 day itinerary giving us additional suggestions of places we should visit.

Anthony is very professional,personal & trustworthy.Anthony’s a busy family man & business man but being a native Sri Lankan he is so passionate to show tourists his country’s sights & he’s very knowledgable and is really into nature and photography.

We were collected by Anthony from Negombo and we commenced our 6 day tour at 8am Dambulla was our first stop.

Anthony everyday asked us to pick our agenda and what we felt like doing & seeing.We opted to change our minds as the tour progressed and that was no problem for Anthony.

Enroute to every place Anthony provided us with local facts about Sri Lanka areas,districts,birds and animals and about the different religions and cultures in different towns and cities that we drove through.

Anthony arranged local guides to escort us around the Dambulla caves & Kandy tooth relic.Anthony ensured that we had a jam packed agenda & that we were happy with our daily agenda.

Anthony himself was not only our chauffeur, guide but was also a great friend and even when our tour ended he offered his assistance if we needed anything before we flew home. In 6 days we covered at least 1000km of the Sri Lankan countryside starting in Negombo-Dambulla- Sigiriya -Habarana -Kandy - Nuwara Eliya -Ella -Yala-Marissa & our drop off with Anthony was in Weligama. Our tour was packed with a full day Yala Safari from 6am-6pm ,A half day elephant safari in Kaudulla & Minneriya National Parks.

Anthony climbed with with us early morning up Pidurangala rock to see sunset and look across at Lions Sigiriya rock & the views were amazing.We also visited Dambulla temples to see all the Buddhas, Kandy tooth of the relic,we got the famous train from Nuwara Eliya -Ella and Anthony escorted us to the platform ,minded our luggage and drove to Ella to collect us off the train & was on the platform to meet us!

In Ella Anthony brought us to Little Adam’s Peak and 9 Arch Bridge in time to water a train go past.

Anthony also escorted to the tea plantations & brought us on jungle safari for a full day around Yala national park in search for the Sri Lankan leopard.Anthony really went above and beyond to ensure we had fun & enjoyed all the amazing excursions that Sri Lanka has to offer.Anthony brought us to nice local and family run restaurants for our lunches and brought bottles of water for us too.

Anthony runs his tour company with his brother and friends and you really won’t be disappointed by booking with Anthony from IPHA Lanka Tours.Anthony’s tours are very reasonable priced and we were delighted that we opted to tour with Anthony as based on all the recommendations and reviews we read about him we weren’t disappointed and he really made our trip!

I would highly recommend touring with Anthony or any of his team of guides and drivers as we wouldn’t have got to see and do as much as we had without having Anthony’s local knowledge and help to plan & drive us all around the country of Sri Lanka.I would highly recommend Anthony and I will be recommending him to family and friends and hopefully I will be back to Sri Lanka again to join Anthony and his team for more Sri Lankan travels.
