Good value but communication issues

It was good value but unfortunately my guide did not speak English and was unable to tell me anything about the tour. I resorted to stopping in a tea tasting shop to ask the owners to communicate with the driver for me. The authentic curry house was very basic in decor but we had a delicios meal served on Lotus leaves in silence.

Really enjoy discovering Colombo in Tuk Tuk....

Tks sooo much ASIRI for this very interesting tour in Colombo. I really appreciated yr flexibility. You let me discover quietly the time I needed the Boudhiste temple... and wherever we went, you gave historical, religious, cultural or traditional details. You also suggested a resting and interesting discover of Ceylan Teas. The lunch was typical and so tasty . I really enjoyed and spend a good and interesting visit with Asiri !!!

Fernando really looked...

Fernando really looked after me and showed me all the sights - maritime museum, the lighthouse, the gem shop (which was actually worth a visit just try on some colourful stones... a girl can dream). He also took me to an amazing local place for rice and curry. He was watching over me when I was chatting to the 'so called gardener' from Victoria Park too so felt he really had my back. (Tip for anyone - the gardener was informative but was just after some money and he wasn't the real gardener!). Lastly I left my water bottle and shirt in the back of the tuk tuk and he brought it all the way back for me! He's a star!

Disappointing experience

Unorganized tour ! The itinerary was unclear, and we wasted a lot of time waiting. The guide wasn’t friendly, and the stops felt random. It didn’t feel like a proper city tour.

Whizzing about Colombo via tuk tuk. The only why to go.

Just fun whizzing about Colombo. Our guide hit all the mentioned stoped as advertised and a few more reflecting out personal interest. He even gave us a wee tuk tuk driving lesson on a quiet back road. We never felt rushed and were happy with the experiences offered. Lunch was delicious.

Highly disappointing

The tour skipped some major attractions, and the food provided was below average. The guide didn’t speak English well, which made communication difficult. Not worth the time or money.

Unprofessional service

The driver arrived late, and the tuk-tuk wasn't clean. The places we visited were overcrowded and not well-organized. It felt more like a basic ride around the city than a proper tour.

Uncomfortable tour

The tuk-tuk was uncomfortable, and the driver seemed uninterested in explaining anything. The food stop was disappointing, and it felt rushed overall. I expected more for an 'all-inclusive' tour.
