Your chauffeur brings deep regional knowledge, guiding you to the finest hidden gems and local experiences across Sri Lanka.
I'm Kingsley, from Matara in the Deep South. A Tourist Board-licensed driver/guide, I've been a chauffeur-guide with TLC since 2016. As a former rice mill owner, I love sharing trivia and insights into the history and culture of farming communities. I've picked up a wealth of knowledge over the years, and I was an avid cyclist who competed in races. I speak good English, I'm soft-spoken and polite, and you can rely on me to stay on top of things so that you have a memorable holiday.
In addition, we loved Kingsley who was our tour guide for the entire trip and an amazing person.
Kingsley, our driver, was a key factor in being able to adapt the plans - he was reliable, experienced and helpful.
A big mention to Kingsley who was our driver for most of the trip, not only was he a lovely person to share our time with, he made sure that we were always comfortable and recommended some great hidden gems along the way.
Our tour guide, Kingsley, was an excellent guide and driver. He took care to find out our individual needs, such as finding street-side mango and king coconut water, machines to make traditional Sri Lankan food, and a traditional Sri Lankan sarong, and incorporated these into the existing travel itinerary. He was very knowledgeable about the various sites we visited.
We were overall pleased & satisfied with Kingsley's service during the duration of the trip. He is knowledgeable about the places & routes and didn't even need to use the GPS mostly. He was also very punctual (in fact early most of the time) and we never had to wait. He gave us a lot of space & privacy, and gave us the time we needed to rest comfortably in his clean vehicle during the long journeys. He's polite & well-mannered and committed to servicing us to the best of his ability. He was flexible enough to accommodate our requests, and was very committed to ensuring that we fulfilled our itinerary and get to our destinations. He even went out of his way to get us treacle while we went for our whale watching tour. Overall, he's a pleasant driver & guide and that made our entire holiday very enjoyable and safe.
Kingsley was fantastic and we were fortunate to have him as our guide/chauffeur for the week. I will take every opportunity to recommend TLC and Kingsley in particular, and will be certain to be in touch in advance of my next trip to your beautiful country.
Our trip to Sri Lanka was great, thanks in part to your transport company providing us with our chauffeur and guide Kingsley. We can't say enough good about him. He is a gentleman, kind and caring, and gave us guidance at every opportunity, in out of the way places to visit, in local customs, in Sri Lankan cuisine, in facilitating communication, and in getting the best prices wherever possible. His driving skills are excellent, always calm and composed, making us feel safe, at ease and in good hands. Clearly, Kingsley loves your beautiful Sri Lanka, sharing with us local lore and history, and taking us not only where our itinerary indicated, but whenever possible, supplementing this with suggestions of where else we might go. We really felt royally treated by Kingsley, and are truly grateful.
