Ajai Kanista, your driver
Main driver

Ajai Kanista

Born and raised in Point Pedro, Ajai Kanista has spent years on every road this site mentions — the A9 south, the coast roads east and west, the hairpins up to Ella. He speaks English and Tamil, drives calmly, and knows where the good food stops are.

You'll have Ajai's WhatsApp from the moment you book. One driver, one van, the whole trip.
