En historisk skat forvandlet til et levende socialt centrum. Dens koloniale charme, nu smeltet sammen med moderne butikker og spisesteder, skaber et indbydende rum, hvor fortid og nutid sømløst smelter sammen.
Bygningen husede øens lovgiver i 53 år, indtil det nye parlamentariske kompleks blev åbnet.
Fyret, der blev afsluttet i 1857, var den højeste struktur i sin tid. Urmekanismen blev konstrueret af Dent, som senere skulle konstruere mekanismen til den berømte Big Ben.
Kør gennem denne historiske hjørnesten og bycentrum, hvor koloniale rester møder moderne handel. Midt i ikoniske strukturer, travle markeder og regeringsbygninger harmonerer ekko fra fortiden med byens travle hjerteslag.
En hellig oase af tro og trøst, denne historiske kirke har dyb religiøs betydning, der går tilbage til det tidlige 19. århundrede. Dens ærefrygtindgydende arkitektur og åndelige atmosfære tilbyder besøgende et sted for refleksion og ærbødighed, samtidig med at det mindes et kapitel af modstandskraft i Colombos historie.
En åndelig oase i Colombo, der blander tradition og modernitet. Udsmykket arkitektur, fredfyldte omgivelser ved søen og en mangfoldig samling af artefakter skaber et fortryllende rum for tilbedelse og fordybelse.
Udforsk Sri Lankas fortid! Museet fremviser en imponerende samling af artefakter, kunst og historiske skatte, der giver indsigt i øens fængslende historie, kultur og arv.
En pulserende byskat, Pettah er Colombos travle kommercielle hjerte. Dens travle gader er en sansefest, der byder på alt fra krydderier og tekstiler til elektronik. Et mikrokosmos af byens energi og mangfoldighed.
En slående arkitektonisk perle, denne moskes røde nuance og indviklede design skiller sig ud. Et symbol på religiøs harmoni, føjer det til Colombos mangfoldige kulturelle stof, og inviterer besøgende til at beundre dens skønhed og fredelige atmosfære.
Det gamle rådhus er et majestætisk bygningsværk fra kolonitiden og er en levende arv fra byen. Dens tidløse arkitektur og historiske betydning gør det til et elsket vartegn, der bevarer essensen af Colombos fortid, mens det bidrager til dets nuværende borgerlige funktioner.
Majestætisk og moderne, Lotus Tower pryder Colombos skyline og symboliserer vækst og enhed. Med sit innovative design, observationsdæk og kulturelle betydning tilbyder det panoramaudsigt og afspejler Sri Lankas fremskridt, mens det omfavner sin arv.
Bygget til minde om Sri Lankas uafhængighed fra det britiske styre.
Fyret, der har guidet søfolk i over et århundrede, er en maritim vagtpost, der står højt på kysten. Et historisk vartegn, det symboliserer Colombos forbindelse til havet og tilbyder en malerisk kulisse for besøgende, der udforsker byens havnefront.
Et tilflugtssted ved havet i Colombo, hvor havbrisen blander sig med latter. Familier, joggere og solnedgangsentusiaster samles på denne vidtstrakte grønt for at slappe af og byder på en fantastisk udsigt over Det Indiske Ocean og en fredfyldt flugt fra byens stress.

We( two families) came for one week trip to Srilanka. Tangeriene tours is our travel advisor and partner for this trip. Roshan is the one who is allocated as our Driver and Guide for the trip. Roshan is very humble, honest, supportive and well behaving person. He has very good knowledge about the tourist locations and got very good knowledge abt India also which is very helpful for us during our conversations with him. We first went to Bentota, Galle and then Colombo. He showed us few more places extra which are not part of the package/itenary. Very Happy to have him as our Driver and in future also we will strongly go for him in our next visit to Srilanka. We are very happy with the services and support provided by Tangerine tours. Abhilaisni also very support from Tangerine tours. We strongly recommend Roshan for any one who visits Srilanka. Thank you Roshan and Thank you Tangerine tours.
We would like to express our heartfelt appreciation for our assistant and driver, Mr. Roshan, who truly made our Sri Lanka trip an unforgettable experience. From the very beginning, Roshan was exceptionally humble, polite, and cooperative. His punctuality was commendable—he was always on time, ensuring that our entire 7-day journey went smoothly without any hassle or delays. Despite already being on a long tour for 10–15 days, he was assigned to us for our trip, and not once did he let that reflect in his service. His energy, dedication, and positive attitude remained consistent throughout. He took us to every sightseeing location and activity with great care, and his guidance helped us make the most of each place we visited. What stood out the most was his genuine nature and warm behavior. By the end of the tour, we didn’t just feel like customers—we felt a personal connection. His kindness and support added an emotional touch to our journey that we will always remember. We are truly grateful to have had Roshan as our driver and assistant, and we highly recommend him to anyone planning a trip to Sri Lanka. He is a wonderful person and an excellent professional. Thank you, Roshan, for making our trip so special.
Mr Soneth our driver During our tour, we had a wonderful experience with our driver. He was very punctual and careful while driving. He knew all the routes and shared interesting information about the places we visited. He was friendly, patient, and always ready to help. Because of his good driving and cheerful nature, our trip became more enjoyable and safe.
Our holiday was exceptional, thanks to our guide Dissan. He was very helpful and kind. He showed us many interesting places around Sri Lanka. I would greatly recommend Tangerine Tours if you are traveling to Sri Lanka. They are the best.
We booked this company for our 10-day tour in Sri Lanka. We were very fortunate to have been given Mr. Kurt Steyn as our driver. He was punctual, polite & respectful, drove safely, and spoke excellent English. He was also very helpful to my two in-laws who had difficulty getting in and out of the vehicle. Overall, he had a great attitude of wanting to assist us and make our trip enjoyable and we’re very grateful for that. Would happily recommend.
Dana, an upbeat and cheerful driver, exceeded expectations. His extensive knowledge of the country's history and local attractions, coupled with his smooth adaptability to schedule changes, made for a delightful journey. Fluent in Hindi, he enhanced the experience, especially for Indian travelers. I highly recommend him for a seamless and enjoyable trip.
Driver showed up an hour late from Tour starting time of 10 am. Driver was very quiet. Pointed out name of sightseeing location but no history, facts, story or any information. One of worst private tour experiences
1. They took you to force-shopping facilities despite your refusal so they could earn comissions: gem stones, safari, spice garden, Athreya spa... the actual prices are 1/3-1/4 elsewhere. 2. In the middle of trips, owner tell the drivers to drop you if you dont pay extra. OWNER TELLS DRIVER TO INFLATE THE MILEAGE TO ROB YOU (screenshot)!!! They offer cut-throat prices per kilometer.
Tangerine Tours arranged a 14 day road trip all around Sri Lanka. We had Toyota Coaster mini bus pick us up at Colombo Airport and drove us around Negombo, Anuradhapura, Jaffna, Trincomalee (Thirukoneswaram Temple), Habarana (Sigiriya Rock Fortress, Polonnaruwa ancient city, Dambulla Rock Cave Temple, Eco Park – Elephant Safari, Cultural Show), Kandy (Peradeniya Botanical Garden, Temple of Tooth), Nuwara Eliya (Ramboda Falls, Tea Estate, Sita Amman Temple, High Tea at Grand Hotel), Ella (The scenic train ride from Nanu Oya to Demodara & Nine Arches Bridge), Yala (Ravana Falls, Kataragama Temple & Yala National Park Safari), Tangalle, Galle and dropped us back at Colombo Airport. Tangerine Tour executive Gayandika helped promptly to prepare our itinerary and accurately customized it to our expectations. He has made all the arrangements to make this a smooth and memorable trip. We drove around with English speaking tour guide Malcolm, who was an excellent guide and very knowledgeable and helpful to us. The driver Nayan is a safe driver who took extra care on the road covering around 2500 Km. We also had a helper Wijesiri take care of us in and out of the bus and then manage the luggage at each destination. Overall, this is a memorable trip that we would highly recommend Tangerine Tours to all interested in visiting the beautiful country Sri Lanka.
The trip was amazing, mainly because of the efforts put in by our guide, who mingled along so well like our brother. There was not even a single issue that’s occurred, the trip went on very smooth and peaceful!
