Great and Enjoyable Colombo Tuk Tuk Tour Experience! 🚕🌴

I had a wonderful experience with the Colombo Private Guide Tour by Tuk Tuk. The guide was very friendly, knowledgeable, and made the tour enjoyable from start to finish. We visited many interesting places around Colombo and learned a lot about the city’s culture and history. The tuk tuk ride was comfortable and fun. Everything was well organized, and the all-inclusive service made it stress-free. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Colombo.

Extraordinary

I had a tour with Pradeep Dissanayake. He was friendly and captured the vibe of Colombo very well. We visited the most important places and he went the extra mile to make the trip an unforgettable memories. I would recommend him as a tour guide to any tourist who wants a genuine experience of the city.

Misleading itinerary

The advertised itinerary was not followed. Some promised stops were skipped, and the guide didn’t provide any explanation. This was frustrating and felt dishonest. It was a bad experience

This is not the experience of a person who has traveled to Apassam. Please if you have done your tour with us send us one photo taken with that tour or send us the booking you contacted us this is a wrong review

Disorganized and rushed tour

The tour felt very unorganized, and the guide seemed to be in a hurry the whole time. We couldn’t fully enjoy the attractions because everything was rushed. Not worth the price.

Great experience and tour around the city!

Started off the tour today at 10am outside of the mirage, both drivers were excellent and gave a great experience! We explored various sites, tried the local food, they kept us hydrated throughout and started the tour on a good foot with a king coconut to drink. We could take our time as the tour wasn’t rushed, visited some hidden gems to eat where you could see the food was popular with the locals. Can’t recommend enough!!
