As we had hoped, all our transfers went very smoothly. Our driver, Mahesh, coordinated with the sightseeing sites, restaurants and hotels in advance, allowing us to travel very comfortably despite our tight schedule.
When we booked your private taxi, our main goal was to secure smooth transportation so that we could see as much as possible in a short period.

We also appreciated his suggestions for experiences we would never have tried on our own, such as visiting a local market and buying a lottery ticket.
We knew nothing about local safety, transportation or the geography, so it was extremely helpful to discuss the travel schedule and plan it together. Although this made the trip more expensive, it allowed us to travel with complete peace of mind.
Our driver was very entertaining and knowledgeable. He answered our questions thoroughly and used our free time to take us to local places and other destinations that matched our interests, which we greatly enjoyed.

I’ve never been good at interacting with other people, so I was hesitant to ask Mr. LankaMe to do anything, and even after I made the request, I was still worried. However, in the end, I made the right decision.
I consulted with Mr. Yoshida from the time I made the inquiry until before I left. The answers were always concise and easy to understand, and they also included what I should say in the next reply and what I should do by the deadline, which saved me a lot of unnecessary rallies. thank you very much.
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to our driver, Mr. Mahesh. I’ve never been good at interacting with other people, so I was hesitant to ask LankaMe to do anything, and even after I made the request, I was still worried.
However, in the end, I made the right decision. Mr. Mahesh always spoke to me in a friendly manner, but kept an appropriate distance from me without being excessive. It was fun to be able to talk about various things while looking at the scenery while traveling long distances in the car. There were many times when I felt that they were used to being guided by Japanese people. I was really happy to see that he had an affinity for Japan and Japanese people, and was able to leave it to him for four days with peace of mind.
Also, because I didn’t think about my itinerary in detail, I often had to make last-minute decisions, but they didn’t give me a hard time and adjusted the schedule so that I could enjoy the whole day. He patiently listened to my poor English, which was really reassuring.
If I had traveled on my own as usual, not only would I not have been able to go to the sightseeing spots and shops I was taken to, but I would have had a lot of trouble getting around. And I definitely never fell in love with Sri Lanka this much. Thank you very much.

We hope to hire you again when we return to Sri Lanka
Mahesh looked after us for three days. Everything was truly wonderful—he accommodated our many requests and made it a perfect trip.
Although there were long drives, we were comfortable the whole time.
Thanks to Mahesh’s extensive knowledge, he answered our many questions politely and clearly, which deepened our appreciation of Sri Lanka.
We would like to ask for his help again when we visit Sri Lanka next time. Thank you very much.
