5.00We took the Zoom local food tour by tuk-tuk with guide Mohamed on our very first day in Colombo. What a fantastic start to our Sri Lanka trip! We sampled seven completely different delicacies in places we would never have found on our own. There were three different equally delicious hoppers, very tasty blue crab, a real highlight, kottu, street food on the beach, samosas, a delicious king coconut, and finally, a delicious dessert. We were able to do an extensive tea tasting and try some amazing spices, especially the fantastic cinnamon. As die-hard coffee drinkers, we were amazed at how different tea can taste. We were given time to smell and taste everything at our leisure. We ended up buying five different teas, cinnamon, and mace, everything of excellent quality. This first glimpse into the world of Sri Lankan flavors was a real eye-opener. The food tasted fantastic, wonderfully aromatic, and moderatly spicy. Mohamed was a great, funny guide who had a lot of interesting stories to tell about Sri Lanka and Colombo. He took us to all the major sights. A highlight was the visit to Galle Face Beach, where Colombo families and friends meet on Saturday evenings, stroll, and, of course, eat delicious street food. We highly recommend the fun tuk tuk Zoom local food tour.

5.00On our first day in Colombo we went on this tour. Really exciting way to see the city via tuk tuk, they took us all through the city and were excellent tour guides as they are very knowledgeable. The places they took us to eat were very highly rated and we could see that the company had gone to great lengths to find the best places to sample authentic Sri Lankan food. Such a great way to begin your time in Sri Lanka, the food is really amazing, very exciting moving around and tasting new things. The tour guides are super friendly, fun and accommodating. We absolutely recommend this tour!
The sights and tastes of Colombo in one night. Loved it

5.00We did this on our first night in Sri Lanka and we couldnt have had a better introduction to the place! We learnt so much about the food, the culture and history of the place. Hoppers, crab curry, tea tasting, street food - it was all delicious, and Mohamed was a very genuine guy, and able to be flexible to suit the schedule to families with kids. Would definitely recommend. Come hungry!
