Our driver and guide, Mr Raja gave us a very good tour of Colombo. He was very informative, an excellent driver and took extra care with safety (when we asked questions he often pulled over to the side of the road, out of the traffic to answer and explain). He was very aware of the things we wanted to take photos of and slowed down or stopped for better shots and he also offered to take photos for us. The tuk-tuk was spotlessly clean and quite comfortable although a little cramped for my husband who is 6ft 1in! Communication was easy with What's App. We would recommend this tour when visiting Colombo. Thank you!

Mr. Raja is a very nice tuk tuk driver who was very patient in answering our questions. Always with a ready smile and will tell us what he knows about the places we pass by including ones that arent exactly part of the tour. It was a very satisfying 4 hrs for us

We had a fabulous, informative tuk tuk tour with Ahilan. His communication before the tour was great and he was very punctual. He gave us time to see all the different sights, took photos of us and explained the history and significance of each place we visited. We also appreciated the cold water and king coconut water. Thanks Ahilan for a great morning in Colombo!

We really liked Ahilan. A very nice person and very informed/educated tour guide. He gave us as much time as we wanted even though we signed up for 4 hours, we started early and ended late. He would have even given us more time as we were driving back but I did not want to take more advantage of his generosity. He made sure we knew where to meet him at the beginning and throughout the day was never rushed anywhere.
