5.00Great tour. Our ship was 2 hours late. Dinuka waited for us and gave our full 4 hour tour. He took us to a great Indian restaurant. Exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend. We had a lot of fun zipping around the city in the Tuk Tuk.

5.00We had a truly amazing day with Dinuka exploring Colombo and all it’s varied areas. We saw historic sites, temples, a colourful market and to cap it off a delicious lunch in a friends house where our hosts could not have been more accommodating. We had a delicious Sri Lankan curry with five other dishes and was just perfect. A final visit to a tea shop was interesting to us too as tea lovers, a really great full day’s entertainment thank you.
