Testimonial - Intergrity Travels and Tours

Dear Brian,

Well, we are home safely after a wonderful 16 days in Sri Lanka in the safe hands of your driver. He was the person who made our holiday an exceptional experience and we cannot thank you enough for arranging for him to be our driver and friend for that time. Not just his careful driving in sometimes crazy places, but his local knowledge and contacts gave us those extra wonderful experiences that I doubt we would have had without him. There were so many, but clearly the ride up to the Temple at Dambulla was a highlight as were the visits to artisans such as wood carvers, gem polishers, silk stylists and, of course, the tea plantation and factory. He was always on time with a cheery greeting and nothing was ever too much trouble, including finding the washrooms in just the right place! Our various safaris were well organised and he always knew the right person to take us. The bird life was particularly interesting to us and we saw and heard so many different species. His obvious care for our safety and well-being was never more evident than when he personally put us on the train in Kandy and met us at the other end, and when he looked after Margaret at the temple ceremony when I was not feeling well enough to attend. Finally, our last day visit to the Fort at Galle and the cricket ground were a fitting end to an exceptional holiday as we share a love of cricket which gave us an interesting conversation every day. Thank you for all your suggestions and advice prior to our trip and thank you for giving us your car & driver to make our holiday one of the best we have ever had. We hope to visit your friendly and beautiful country again soon. We would be happy to recommend your services to anyone at any time.

All the best from Martyn and Margaret Lewis

Hi Brian – thanks for getting in touch.

We all really enjoyed the tour. Sri Lanka is beautiful country and we really enjoyed our time there. A big part of that, was how easy Shane made it for us. As a driver he was very conscious and safety focused. He also had lots of patience when we changed our plans or asked him to drive to different hotels. He was also very considerate and helped ensure we were safe when we were out walking/ visiting temples etc. And that we didn’t get ripped off as tourists.

For us, it was a great to know he was looking out for our best interests. He helped to make the holiday really easy and enjoyable – and that in my view is above what we expected.

Thanks again, I would recommend your company and Shane to my friends and colleagues interested in visiting Sri Lanka.

Thanks again and I hope all is well you with you and Shane.

Regards,

Hi Brian,

I thought I would drop you a quick line now that I am back to reality of sitting in an office on a rainy day to say thank you for arranging such a fantastic holiday for Zoey and I.

I would like to acknowledge how fantastic Kumara was as our driver. Kumara’s friendly nature, knowledge, care, sense of humour and attention to detail enabled us to have such a good holiday. It was great to not only have a driver but also a tour guide every step of the way. It was so lovely to be greeted with a nice smile and a warm welcome each morning (on time without exception!) and never made us feel like any request was a burden or too hard (even going to fish markets at 6 am or trying to track down a cricket bat during peak hour in colombo haha.)

Kumara’s local knowledge everywhere we travelled also allowed us to enjoy our holiday to the fullest. It was great to not have to spend any of our time researching or googling what to do or see or where to eat for that matter, as Kumara’s suggestions were always perfect and of course he was always happy to cater for any suggestions we had. It never felt like we were stopping because it was convenient for him or the program. Everything was always tailored to our needs.

The comfort of the car was fantastic, with good aircon to combat the heat and humidity and plenty of room for us and our bags, which proved invaluable on some of the long journeys between places.

I would not hesitate to recommend your company and Kumara’s expertise to anyone thinking of travelling to Sri Lanka, the service you provided turned our holiday from a good one to an unforgettable one.

Stephen Patmore – Australia

Hi Brian,

I know this is a little late in coming to you… but we wanted to thank you for sending Kumara to drive us around the southern area of Sri Lanka. He was an excellent driver and so helpful when we needed to get from place to place. He always welcomed us with a friendly smile and we felt very well looked after. Please pass on our kind regards, it was a most enjoyable visit.

We look forward to returning to your amazing country again!

Many thanks,

Carmella and Kirsty – (Brighton-UK)

Dear Brian,

We are now back in the UK after a wonderful two weeks in Sri Lanka. I just wanted to thank you for your efficient, prompt and helpful advice regarding transport. You were certainly right about having a driver for the full two weeks. Our driver was fantastic. He was always cheerful and courteous and a very careful driver, which made us feel safe. He kept to arrangements and was able to offer useful advice and suggestions. He was also really good with our young daughter (who talks a lot!) and they built up a good rapport. When spending two weeks with a driver it is important that you get on with them and feel confident. He was everything we could have wanted and made a big contribution to making our holiday a success.

Thank you – we will certainly recommend you to anyone we know who is planning a trip to Sir Lanka.

Best wishes,

Joanna Bell – U.K.

Dear Brian,

Thanks for your email. I certainly will recommend you for any vehicle services . In fact I have already told two of my clients and they have asked me to email them all details on the stay in Lanka. I will in the itinerary add your name. Please make sure the driver is Jayantha as our trip would not have been comfortable without him.

Best Regards

Zarina Baig – U.A.E.

Hi Brian,

Hope you are well.

I would just like to say thank you for everything, we are all very grateful to you and Wije for organizing the van and helping us tour the country. We were all very happy with Wije, he was extremely professional and knew a lot about the places we visited which helped a lot. He was very helpful and was always happy to drive us anywhere no matter what time and with a smile on his face.

I would definitely be recommending you to anyone that comes to Sri Lanka.

We appreciate all you have done for us.

Please pass on how happy we were with Wije to him.

Thank you again Brian

Rhehan Wijeyesekera – U.S.A

Dear Brian,

I would like to say thank you for the service provided by your company. Everything was ideal and the driver was very experienced and nice. I will recommend your company to other travellers as a reliable and honest one.

Sincerely yours,

Kirill Golubev – RUSSIA

Dear Brian,

It’s taken us too long but we wanted to write to express our thanks for your faultless logistics and organization of so many details of our recent trip to Sri Lanka. All the timings and the routes worked very well, the train tickets were perfect – but most of all, we wanted to thank you for giving us the opportunity to meet Kumara. Not only is Kumara an excellent and safe driver, but he helped us from morning till evening; he is knowledgeable, patient, and endlessly kind – and his ready assistance with our three children made such a difference to our holiday.

Thank you again and of course there should be no doubt that we will recommend your services to anyone we know travelling to Sri Lanka in the future.

Best wishes

Esther and Paul Solomon – AUSTRALIA

Dear Brian,

Sorry for the delay, I promised to send photos earlier, but we were too busy. I was in business trip in China, so just returned last Thursday.

All the trip was good. Your driver is a good driver and a good man. We are glad that you advised us to take the car for all the days, we avoided a mess searching the other transport and etc. Thanks a lot, and say HELLO from us to your driver.

If we come again – i’ll contact you and be sure – i advice your company to my friend if any go to Sri Lanka.

Best Regards,

Maxim Loshchakov – RUSSIA

Hi Brian,

Apologies for the delay in responding to this as I have had some changing work circumstances.

I had a wonderful time in Sri Lanka, the country exceeded my expectations and I’m really happy I chose to go there. The culture, history, people, food and beaches combined to make it memorable. I do have some feedback on the car service.

Your driver was very knowledgeable in broad range of things relating to Sri Lanka. He gave us a running commentary of things throughout the country which was both interesting and welcomed.

He was always able to be ‘found’ and on time. This meant that we were never left waiting and when we went off on our own, we were always able to find him in the crowd. It was a good skill he had going on!

There was a comfortable amount of room in the car which meant we were able to relax.

Having a car at our disposal really was the way to go! It meant we could really do exactly what we wanted.

It was always kept clean which showed he looked after the car well, this was noted and appreciated!

You’ve always been extremely professional Brian we so want to thank you for helping make it all happen.

Cheers again,

Nathan Ryan – AUSTRALIA

Hi Brian,

We had a brilliant time in Sri Lanka!

Your driver was excellent – absolutely lovely, always looking out for us and always absolutely polite, professional and just a lovely guy. I would definitely recommend him and yourself to anyone!

We had a brilliant time and an unforgettable one! Thank you so much for all your help!

All the best,

Nicola Henderson – London, U.K.

Hi Brian,

Thanks for assisting us over in Sri Lanka. Your driver was fantastic and a great help.

If we come back again we will certainly be using you again. Thanks again really appreciate your prompt and efficient replies to my emails and the ease of organizing our driving part of the trip.

Say hi to your driver too from us.

Cheers

Kate Sullivan – AUSTRALIA

Hi Brian,

Caught up with too many things… since we came back……..

To start with, we were very happy with the car, and service provided by your driver was very good too. Please convey our special thanks to him.

we wish we could have met you too …. but may be next time.

Thanks again for all you support and services.

We wish you success in all your endevours.

Dear Brian

Jeremy Buultjens, AUSTRALIA

Hi Brian

Have finally got home and thought it would be a good idea to let you know that we were most appreciative of your service. Please thank your driver for his patience, knowledge, driving skills and making out holiday a thoroughly enjoyable time. He is a most considerate person and no request was too much trouble.

We will have no hesitation recommending your services to our friends who are considering travelling to your country.

Kind regards

Trevor Durdin and Melanie La Brooy – AUSTRALIA

Hello Brian,

It is Wednesday and we are on the way to Negombo – I have discovered the lovely town of Kurunegala. Unlike other places there are barely any foreign tourists here. Your driver took me to a nice place for traditional Sinhala cuisine.

I have been very satisfied with the arrangements for the trip. The car is comfortable, reliable and new. Above all, your driver has proven to be a most satisfactory driver demonstrating safety and professionalism at all times. He has a good knowledge of Sri Lanka, the culture, the traditions and has apprised me of the unique character of each town we pass through. He has obligingly stopped whenever I have wanted to take photos and has taken photos of me too.

He is a mature, responsible family man well suited to escort a wide variety of foreign tourists. I believe he is an asset to your organisation.

I am a very satisfied customer and I would like other people to know that the calibre of driver is most important when one spends so much time in the car. If he is grumpy, unreliable or does not have good knowledge of local conditions then it can spoil the holiday for the guest. But your driver was always friendly, gregarious and happy to chat. I learned quite a lot from him.

Best Wishes

Wayne Mitchel – AUSTRALIA

Dear Brian

My wife and I are safely back in Australia after a very exciting but tiring holiday.

I am sending you this email to thank you for renting us your car through Mr. Mervyn Andriesz, while we were in Sri Lanka and it performed really well.

I would like to take this opportunity of telling you that you gave us a really good driver and helped us in every way possible during our trip in Sri Lanka. He is an asset to your company.

I will certainly recommend your company to anyone who is visiting Sri Lanka and look forward to hearing from you ASAP.

With best wishes

Sincerely

Trevor LaBrooy – AUSTRALIA

Dear Mr. Brian,

Good Morning ! We reached Dubai safely and have started work today. It was good to talk to you before we left.

This note is to thank you for the prompt and efficient services provided on our airport trips. You keep up time, extremely well, which lacks in many business deals. We were really very satisfied doing business with you. We will be coming to SL in a few months and we may take your services for our entire itinerary in Colombo.

Kind Regards

F.P. David – DUBAI

Dear Brian

Thank you ever so much for sorting our travel our during our recent stay in Sri Lanka – a calm head during the frantic hotel bookings – you were brilliant!

Have recommended you to all our friends for their visits to Sri Lanka – your drivers were brilliant – please pass on our thanks.

We can’t wait for the next cricket tests,

With very kind regards

Sam Howe – Virgin Media, UK

Brian,

I just wanted to say a big thank you again for your help organising our trip around Sri Lanka. The honeymoon wouldn’t have been the same without your help. Thank you so much again and I’ll be in touch next time we are planning a trip back!

Regards

Hello Brian

I would like to thank you again for a very good service , safe, nice and proper! I wish you all the best and come back again next time!

Nice regards

Susanna Graf – SWITZERLAND

Dear Brian

Just writing to thank you for the wonderful service you provided on our recent trip. I must commend your driver for his excellent driving skills, care and attention he gave to us for the whole trip. He became more a trusted friend than a driver and we felt completely safe in his keeping.

As you know we visited my friend in the Home for the Elderly, Darley Road, frequently. Your driver treated him with the utmost care and dignity which was so much appreciated by him and us and beautiful to watch. I did thank him but please say thank you again and give him our very best wishes for him and his family. My husband was so impressed with our trip that he is already saving his ‘pennies’ hopefully to return next year. With much appreciation

Best wishes

Helen Plumpton – U. K.

Dear Brian,

The first thing I will do when seeing my family and friends is to tell them how gorgeous Srilanka is… it is definitely the pearl of Indian Ocean. The second thing is that they must know that a pleasant holiday in Srilanka is not by finding good hotels but finding a good way of TRANSPORTATION because you will be spending the whole day going from place to place and you will be needing a nice well educated driver who can assure the success of the whole experience. Integrity Logistics will certainly be on top of my reccomendation list. I asked many people about transportation prices and found out that yours is the best. The driver became a member of our family due to his kindness and perfect safe driving. Wait for us Mr. Brian coz next time we will be needing 10 cars for our family and friends.

Best Regards

Georges and Sara – Beirut, LEBANON

Dear Brian

Just a quick note to say thank you for the excellent service while I was in Colombo. I certainly will be forwarding the flier you sent to others. Your driver was excellent.

Vivienne Saverimuttu

Dear Brian,

We would like to let you know how much we appreciated having Kumara as our driver on our recent trip around Sri Lanka. He went out of his way to make the trip enjoyable and memorable and was able to arrange for us to visit areas which would normally be off limits for tourists – for example: visiting my old school in Nuwara Eliya which is now an Army camp; locating the Minister at the church where my mother was married in 1952 so we could get access to the church records; arranging for my elderly mother to have special lift access to the Temple of the Tooth and for helping my husband to locate a spare part for his Jeep back in Australia.

Having such a safe, knowledgeable and reliable driver, who took such pride in his work and was able to balance friendliness with discretion, was one of the key components to making our family trip so successful.

We would have no hesitation in recommending Integrity Logistics to others looking to visit the island.

Regards

Kate Young – AUSTRALIA

Dear Brian,

Thank you for your excellent service. I really appreciated the promptness and customer service shown by your company. I have forwarded your number to my colleagues who are staying in Colombo for a few more days this week. All the best.

Kavitha Joshi Rai – New Delhi, INDIA

Dear Brian,

Thank you for your perfect co-operation. When I write on Tripadvisor on web, I will recommend your perfect service.

Thanks

Martina Zejvalova – SLOVAKIA

Dear Brian,

I am pleased to have come in contact with you. Not only were the arrangements agreed on the outset transparent and satisfactory, but the prices offered were reasonable to us compared to ones provided by others I sought help from. For sure we will consider using you again.

As for your driver, well what can I say. He was a charming individual and a gentleman throughout our 5 day trip. A lovely man and a pleasure to have amongst us. Not a single request from my wife or myself was too much for him. He was always helpful, punctual, tidy, neat and trustworthy and a credit not only to you but also loyal to your company. In addition his driving was safe throughout – unlike the other hair raising Sri Lankan drivers on the road.

Take care and good luck

Regards

Roy Drepaul & family – INDIA
