Just awesome!
An immersion in the real Colombo fun and varied. Tuk Tuk ride very easily accessible even with young children. We discover the city at the rhythm of the places we visit. We did not want to go to the Capital and yet we clearly loved this day!!

An afternoon of fantastic discovery in Colombo
The afternoon with Raju and Nasli (two Tuk Tuks for 3) was one of the best moments of our stay in Sri Lanka. All rich and fun stops thanks to a little game, the Peytah market, the stupa, the mosque, all great places that our two guides presented us with tact and leaving us free to spend more or less time. We had landed in the morning, we begged our guides to bring us back, they would have continued to share their passion for their city!
