*About Tourbuddy*

Ayubowan! I am Priyantha, founder of Tourbuddy.

Tourbuddy started with one simple idea: tourists don’t need another driver who rushes them from one photo spot to another. They need a buddy.

For 8+ years, me and my team (Gayan and others) have been driving guests around our beautiful island. We are not a big company with 50 cars. We are a small, trusted team of local, English-speaking professional drivers who love to share our culture, our food, and our secret spots.

We specialize in private tours for families and small groups (2-6 people) – with clean, comfortable A/C cars and minivans. Whether it’s your first time seeing Sigiriya Rock, riding the famous Kandy to Ella train, watching elephants in Udawalawe, or eating the best kottu on a village corner, we make it happen at your own pace.

*Why guests book us again and again:*
– No rushing, no shopping commissions
– We eat where locals eat
– Family & kid-friendly, very safe driving
– All-inclusive price – fuel, tolls, parking, driver hotel included. No hidden cost.
– We help you book the best: Ella train 1st class tickets, private safari jeeps, boutique hotels

We started with one van. Today we have 160+ 5-star reviews because we treat every guest like family.

Come as a guest, leave as family.
