A great way to start your Holiday in Sri Lanka - recommend

This was a really good experience and way for us to kick off our 25 day Sri Lankan Holiday. We met up in the old fort district and quickly got ourselves accustomed to the bike, which were very well maintained and comfortable. We then headed off on a very interesting and pleasant tour around several parts of Colombo. Ashan our guide and bike herder was great, providing plenty of history and anecdotes along the way. The food stops were great with the final one providing a substantial taste of local cuisine. I would highly recommend this tour and riding a bike in Colombo is another experience in itself - Thank you Ashan

Great way to experience Columbo when on a short stay

Wonderful way to see Columbo and get some good insights into local traditions, culture and foods. bikes Were in great condition, variety of food tried interesting and tasty, and our guide ashan was very knowledgeable and clearly passionate about his country. Tour was a little on the long side however can attribute this to the many stories ashan shared highlighting his passion for Srilanka. I can preface this by saying ashan did ask us if we had further appts proceeding and gave us additional time at the end,

Deep dive into Sri Lankan food and Colombo historical sites

My wife and I had an amazing night tour. We not only saw wonderful historical sites and enjoyed the bicycling, but the food was authentic and helped us better appreciate Sri Lankan culture. We appreciated our tour guide, Ashan, taking care of our safety with reflective gear, helmets, and lighting on our bikes and helmets.

Best Experience

Great tour. We were given lots of history and facts about Sri Lanka, it was the best way to view Colombo. The cycling was easy, it was very safe and the food was fabulous. Definitely recommended.
