Resplan
En historisk skatt som förvandlats till ett levande socialt nav. Dess koloniala charm, nu sammansmält med moderna butiker och restauranger, skapar ett inbjudande utrymme där dåtid och nutid sömlöst möts.
Byggnaden innehöll öens lagstiftare i 53 år tills det nya parlamentariska komplexet öppnades.
Färdigt under 1857 var fyren (avvecklad) den högsta strukturen under sin tid. Klockmekanismen konstruerades av tandläkaren, som senare skulle konstruera mekanismen för den berömda Big Ben.
Kör genom denna historiska hörnsten och stadscentrum, där koloniala lämningar möter modern handel. Mitt bland ikoniska strukturer, livliga marknader och regeringsbyggnader harmoniserar ekon från det förflutna med stadens livliga hjärtslag.
En helig oas av tro och tröst, denna historiska kyrka har djup religiös betydelse som går tillbaka till tidigt 1800-tal. Dess imponerande arkitektur och andliga atmosfär erbjuder besökarna en plats för reflektion och vördnad, samtidigt som den firar ett kapitel av motståndskraft i Colombos historia.
En andlig oas i Colombo som blandar tradition och modernitet. Utsmyckad arkitektur, fridfull miljö vid sjön och en mångsidig samling artefakter skapar ett förtrollande utrymme för tillbedjan och kontemplation.
Utforska Sri Lankas förflutna! Museet visar upp en imponerande samling av artefakter, konst och historiska skatter, som ger insikter i öns fängslande historia, kultur och arv.
En pulserande stadsskatt, Pettah är Colombos livliga kommersiella hjärta. Dess livliga gator är en sensorisk fest, som erbjuder allt från kryddor och textilier till elektronik. Ett mikrokosmos av stadens energi och mångfald.
En slående arkitektonisk pärla, den här moskéns röda nyans och intrikata design sticker ut. En symbol för religiös harmoni, den lägger till Colombos mångsidiga kulturella väv, och bjuder in besökare att beundra dess skönhet och fridfulla atmosfär.
Gamla rådhuset är en majestätisk byggnad från kolonialtiden och är ett levande arv från staden. Dess tidlösa arkitektur och historiska betydelse gör det till ett omhuldat landmärke, som bevarar kärnan i Colombos förflutna samtidigt som det bidrar till dess nuvarande samhällsfunktioner.
Majestätiskt och modernt, Lotus Tower pryder Colombos skyline och symboliserar tillväxt och enhet. Med sin innovativa design, observationsdäck och kulturella betydelse erbjuder den panoramautsikt och speglar Sri Lankas framsteg samtidigt som den omfamnar dess arv.
Byggt för att fira Sri Lankas oberoende från brittiskt styre.
Fyren har väglett sjöfarare i över ett sekel och är en sjövakt som står högt vid kusten. Ett historiskt landmärke, det symboliserar Colombos koppling till havet och erbjuder en pittoresk bakgrund för besökare som utforskar stadens strandpromenad.
En tillflyktsort vid havet i Colombo, där havsbrisen blandas med skratt. Familjer, joggare och solnedgångsentusiaster samlas på denna vidsträckta gröna för att varva ner, och erbjuder fantastisk utsikt över Indiska oceanen och en fridfull flykt från stadens liv.

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!
