Great half day tour of Colombo - Great half day tour of Colombo by Romesh. He made it really enjoyable and presented the content at just the right level for two adults and two kids. Length was just right to keep the kids interested and he kept things flowing. I would definitely recommend it as a good use of money and time if you find yourself in Colombo and want a tour of the highlights of the city.

Great intro to Colombo! - I would say this is the best way to see Colombo! I booked this tour just hours before, and was picked up at the hostel by a smiling tour guide and a freshly opened coconut. The tour was easily adapted to my liking, with focus on food and drinks. Still, we took a trip around the different districts of Colombo, and I was introduced to the different buildings and the history of Colombo. The driver was well-known around the city and drove safely while at the same time explaining everything we saw. I went home very full of delicious food and with some great experiences. Would absolutely recommend this tour!

Amazing tour with Kevi - Me and my boyfriend went on this amazing til tuk tour today and had the greatest time ever. Kevi, our driver, started the trip with opening two delicious coconuts for us to enjoy on the ride. He did an amazing job in explaining and telling about the different places in the area. We really enjoyed seeing parts of the city where many locals hang out. Also we loved learning about the Hindu and Sri Lankan culture. This tour was just wonderful, great company, great stops and great food and beverages as well. We recommend this tour. Just let all the wonderful sights give you a new perspective of this wonderful county with an amazing culture and friendly people. Kind regards, Heidi and Niels

Fantastic introduction to Colombo’s sights and food/drink - I wanted to make the most of a layover in Colombo and this looked like a good option: I’m delighted that I decided to sign up as I had a brilliant time with Kavithan who made sure I was really well looked after!! I was arriving late morning and leaving the next day, early, so booked a hotel right beside the airport. Kavithan came to the airport to pick me up and then waited while I showered and relaxed for a while before we headed off. The tour was excellent, taking in beautiful temples, past and present government buildings and landmarks, a brilliant tea shop and, of course, food and juice. Kavithan was knowledgeable, great fun and even knew the best angles for photos!! The food and drink were delicious - I especially loved the hoppers 😍 I would definitely book another tour and look forward to doing so next time I am in Sri Lanka. I can’t recommend this enough 🤩

Tuktuk through Colombo with Maran! - Experienced what felt like the “real” Colombo. Well worth it! The best use of 4 hours here and if you have the chance go take this tour! Ask for Maran. Really good guide and driver.

Tuktuk through Colombo with Maran - It was a surprisingly nice evening tour of Colombo! Our guide Maran, who has very good command of the English language, was full of interesting information about Colombo as well as the various important buildings, temples, attractions. He is a very good driver of the tuktuk. No sharp turns or jerky motions in the hectic, crowded and crazy roads shared by cars, bikes, motorcycles, push carts, people as well as cats and dogs. We started the tour with Maran opening up a couple of coconuts with straws for us to drink. It was the cutest beginning to the evening’s adventure! Ice cold bottles of water and beer in a box right behind our seat were well appreciated. The most interesting part of the tour (for us) was the walk through the local vegetable market where you get up close and see what is offered and the prevailing prices. The coffee and tea tastings seemed to promote the little stores and we purchased a few packets to take back as gifts. We weren’t pressure to buy anything which was nice. These shop keepers were very mild mannered and appreciative of our visit. We ate very delicious traditional Sri Lankan foods and ended our tour with our hearts and bellies full. Our suggestions: - do take this tour - it’s the best way to see Colombo without walking about on foot. - do wear loose and comfortable clothes that cover shoulders and legs. Makes entering temples problem free. Added benefit is less bites from mosquitoes that treat these tuktuks as their very own food tasting tour through Colombo. - do wear slip on shoes. Preferably nothing too nice. Your feet will get dirty walking around the temples barefoot and your prized Birkenstocks will be left needing a good cleaning! - do pace yourself eating, otherwise you might get too full to eat the delicious last dish. - do mind your wallets and purses. Better yet, leave valuables locked in your hotel. The crowds can sometimes feel overwhelming. - ask for Maran to be your guide. You will not regret it! Have fun out there!!
