It was a Sunday and relatively quiet which was good seeing everything and for listening to the guide. collected on time and at each stop given plenty of time for photographs. Guide/driver was calm and knowledgable. Religious stops were best and much old British Colonial history. Overall everything the itinerary expected

I cannot recommend Ricky highly enough—he is an absolutely brilliant and knowledgeable guide! The tour of Colombo was fantastic; we managed to cover all the important sites and immerse ourselves in the local markets, which was exactly what I wanted. As a female traveler exploring the city alone, safety was a priority, and I was hesitant to venture deep into the bustling markets by myself. Ricky immediately put all my concerns at ease. He provided so much history and information about every location, and his friendly, professional manner ensured I felt completely comfortable and secure throughout the entire experience. Ricky is super friendly, incredibly informative, and clearly takes great pride in showing visitors the real heart of Colombo. He is a truly fantastic guide, and I would absolutely recommend him again!
