Upon reaching Matara, they were served refreshing Thambili(King coconut) and traditional short eats such as Kewun, Kokis, Aasmi and Kiribath. A fitting culmination of a long, yet, enjoyable journey.
The expatriate drivers were most appreciative of the support extended by David Pieris Motor Company and the Bajaj team.
