Private Colombo Sightseeing By Tuk Tuk
Description
The most common mode of transport in Sri Lanka is via a three-wheeled automobile appropriately referred to as Tuk-Tuk’s from the noise of their motors. If you have not been in a TUK TUK you have not visited Sri Lanka. The best and most enjoyable way of creeping through the busy streets of Colombo. You will be picked up by the vehicle at Port or your Hotel in Colombo and then you will start the TUK TUK ride through the busy streets of Colombo (Approx. 30 – 45 Minutes). Then you will be transferred back to the Air Conditioned Vehicle with the Chauffeur guide for the remainder of the tour which includes seeing Colombo attractions such as the Residential area and areas of historical significance; Cinnamon Gardens, Old Parliament, Victoria Park, Town Hall, Jamiul Alfar Mosque and the Gangaramaya Temple

I thoroughly enjoyed this tour! It was perfect for seeing Colombo. The tour guide Aswar was friendly and provided an experience that will last for a lifetime. He gave a lot of history and cultural context and I was able to see many sights. I was able to try a Sri Lankan beer and was gifted with packaged tea from various parts of Sri Lanka. So cool and unexpected! I would recommend this tour to anyone. The Tuk Tuk experience is one everyone should have. Glad I did it.
