Our last night we stayed near Colombo airport. My wife and I decided to go to Colombo for another night. From the car on the way to the city, I booked a private tour of about an hour and a half with Pradeep at the last minute. He picked us up at One Galle Face Mall and, despite the limited time, showed us the main highlights of Colombo. During the tour he talked a lot about the history, culture and daily life in the city, which made the experience even more interesting. We thought the price of 15,000 LKR was absolutely worth it. In such a short time we have been able to see a surprising amount of Colombo and get a good impression of the city. We can therefore warmly recommend Pradeep to anyone who wants to discover Colombo in a fun and efficient way.
Pradeep provided a very professional experience for us, his knowledge and delivery of this information was amazing. He was very friendly and answered all of our questions. We can recommend this tour with the highest of confidence that your experience will be incredible. Having a beer while on the tour, hit the spot perfectly.
Dear Gary/ Cara it is really nice to hear you had a good time with us. hope to see you next time. really appreciated, cheers.
Phenomenal tuk tuk tour. It was exciting and exhilarating and we felt so safe. We visited temples, spice market and government buildings and were provided with good local knowledge. We saw so much in three hours in such a fun way and were greeted with King Coconut juice and flowers. The guides were so friendly and made the trip a great experience. Thank you
If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! We had a ball. A great way to see Colombo and learn more about its history and people. Our guide was very knowledgeable and spoke perfect English so we could ask a lot of questions and be interactive. I would highly recommend this tour.
I booked a tour for me and my wife with tuktuksafarisrilanka.com on Sunday 1st March. We were looking forward to it as it was due to be our last day in Sri Lanka but distressingly our flights home had been cancelled in the early hours the same morning due to the Iran crisis. We went ahead with the tour anyway but it was a disaster. The guide was agitated and on the phone the entire time and left us to our own devices in Gangaramaya Temple and wandered off. He then thrust his phone into my hand when my wife was in tears and asked me to talk to his manager who wanted an extra $49 for an already extremely expensive tour. I disputed this and the manager put the phone down on me. The guide said he would get him back on the phone but when we went out to search for him realised he had abandoned us in the middle of Colombo and miles from our hotel. I have subsequently requested a refund for the abandoned tour on a number of occasions that evening and every day since. The ‘manager’ responded immediately after with “Have a great shopping tour with $10 dollars.” and subsequently “If you need your money back, be a nice person, be polite and ask me nicely. Then I will think about” To date we have had no refund despite us having no guiding and just an 11 minute unpleasant and dangerous ride on a Tuk Tuk with the driver constantly on the phone, distracted and swerving all over the place. Up to this point we’d had a wonderful time in Sri Lanka and everybody we’ve met has been friendly and welcoming so we were shocked with this experience. We’ve travelled all over the world and this is one of the most unpleasant and unethical experiences we’ve had anywhere.
Dear Carl Culling, Thank You for taking your valuable time to rate us, i'm not surprised seen your review, its very much reflect who you are, i wish we have way to rate customers and share WhatsApp chat as well. you know the truth what ever you wrote agents us. good luck.
We were incredibly fortunate to have Pradeep as our guide for a day tour of Colombo last week, and he was absolutely outstanding. His energy, enthusiasm, and depth of knowledge transformed what could have been a simple city tour into an engaging, memorable experience. Even in just a few hours, he gave us such a rich sense of the city that we genuinely wished we could have spent the entire day with him. Pradeep speaks exceptionally clear English, which made everything easy and enjoyable for us as visitors, and his sense of humor added a fun, relaxed vibe throughout the tour. He welcomed every question we threw his way and answered them all with insight and warmth. It’s clear he is passionate about Colombo and truly loves what he does. If you’re visiting Colombo and want a guide who is knowledgeable, personable, and genuinely exceptional, do not hesitate to book with Pradeep. Highest recommendation!
Boby is great tour leader. Everything TOP 10 Friendly welcome I get on the neckflowers and coconut juice. He's likeable and smiling. It shows a lot about culture museum and markets . Interesting sightseeing 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Bob was an amazing guide and Tuk Tuk driver. Funny, informative and very attentive. Goes above and beyond! Had local street food, learnt a lot about the culture and saw places we need to go back to.
We had a great experience with Pradeep. He is very knowledgeable on the sights you visit, and is also a very competent driver. He also speaks good English. Don’t run the risk of getting a Tuk Tuk from the port as there are many scammers waiting to take advantage of tourists. A great company that offers a brilliant experience and they are safe and reliable.
We booked the tuk-tuk tour with several families during our stop in Colombo as part of our cruise. Each family had their own tuk-tuk, but we explored the city together. We truly saw the most beautiful sides of Colombo, got to taste local spices, and enjoyed a very delicious lunch. We felt very comfortable and had a wonderful day. Our driver took great care of our children and guided us through the colorful streets of Colombo. We can highly recommend this tour to everyone.
