Amazing! We had the best time with our tour around Jaffna town. Great knowledge mixed with fun and humour. Didn't make us feel rushed or pressured. Made our trip to Jaffna amazing, would 100% recommend to anyone!
Arun is a highly knowledgeable and passionate guide. As someone whose roots are in Jaffna but didn’t grow up there I was not aware of the history pre dating colonial times. The tour which was just a day taught me more about our history than I could have imagined and I left feeling closer to Jaffna - historically and culturally. Arun gave detailed explanations of each place we went to whether it be Nallur Temple or Jaffna Fort. Highly recommend this tour and will definitely be recommending this tour to friends and family venturing to Jaffna!
We had been to Sri Lanka three years ago, but this holiday exceeded all our expectations. We visited Colombo, Trincomalee where we spent 3 days, and another 6 days on our way to and in Jaffna. The last day we enjoyed on the island of Delft. We saw a lot of sights, for which we received an incredibly comprehensive briefing from Arun, which helped us to learn and understand the history of Sri Lanka. We fished, snorkeled, cooked local dishes, visited an amusement park, watched crocodiles and other animals, met local people and admired their customs, and did many other activities. The whole holiday was well organised, the accommodation and food were faultless. Arun's English is excellent so you don't have to worry about not understanding anything. I can only recommend Explore Yarl. Thank you very much ! Renata
Arun was our guide for 2 days on a short tour of Jaffna and completely exceeded our expectations. I was seeking a basic understanding of Jaffna life but what I got was an extensive lecture on the history, culture, politics and geography of the city and the region. He was also very good at showing us the beauty of the region driving us through the islands via causeways and ferries. It was fantastic to have such a knowledgeable guide that enabled us to get the best from the short visit.
My brother (from overseas) and I (Sri Lankan) visited the Jaffna peninnsula and were fortunate to have Arun as our guide. We weren't the typical tourists and rather than visit tourist spots, wanted to interact and get a deep understanding of the culture and lifestyle of the people. Arun understood our requirement and adapted with ease. His knowledge was far beyond what we expected. It was insightful and enriching. We were very satisfied and happy with Arun as our able, knowledgeable and adaptable guide.
It was a Great Tour, Arun was a great and really friendly guide and answered all our questions! He tailored the Program to the time we had and included all our wishes. He gave us many of the local specialties to try, which was a great experience!
It was a very pleasant moments and amazing experience with explore yarl team and we shared the traditional and cultural experience and it was very first time for me and my friends. And he was a very polite and reliable travel partner and guide and his explanations and communication was better and better and im highly recommended the EXPLORE YARL as your guide partner and travel partner. He was the best and i enjoyed the than as i wish. Thank you for your valuable service and good guiding that your gave within the time that we spend around the jaffna
The best part of our trip to Jaffna was our guide Arun. What an amazing experience we had because of his extensive knowledge. He knew the hidden places, the best food, the culture, the places, and he did it all with heartfelt sincerity. Arun was so obliging that nothing was too much trouble for him. He went over and above his duty and I have no hesitation recommending him
Arun easily offers the best tours in Jaffna and the surrounding area. His motorcycle tour is a must do for the adventure traveler. It takes you off the beaten path and gives you an immersive experience into the local culture which you just cannot get sitting in a car or van. Arun is highly professional, extremely knowledgable about the local culture and goes the extra distance to accommodate your areas of interest. I have no hesitation in providing him my highest recommendation.
