• For a real taste and experience of Sri Lanka.. especially Kandy, spending a few days here with Ranga, his wife Nirasha and his daughter has been an absolute experience that we will never forget, thanks to this beautiful family. We booked 3 nights, we loved it so much we booked another night. Ranga took us to Sigiriya and back one day, it took 5 hours return drive, he also took us to Pidurangala rock the same day and came along for the climb which was really nice! He also drove us to Rambukkana one day where we went to the Millennium Elephant Foundation. The night we arrived home from Sigiriya, Nirasha had prepared us a buffet style dinner of authentic Sri Lankan foods, we had a drink with Ranga that night and talked for hours it was lovely! Ranga would always offer to drive, and along the way he would talk to us about the culture, lifestyle, local fruits and food, local wildlife, events and the different religions of Sri Lanka, we learnt so much from him and were able to see as much of Kandy as we'd hoped and more! Nirasha would also make us a different Sri Lankan breakfast every morning. On our last night Ranga took us to a local fruit and veg market and a fish market where we picked the veg and fish for our dinner. That evening Nirasha gave us a cooking lesson, she taught us all about authentic Sri Lankan foods and spices, the health benifits of the vegetables we used and the authentic Sri Lankan methods of cooking. Their hospitality was 5* and nothing short of genuine.
