What To Expect

Negombo Fish Market

Our first point to visit to the Second largest fish market in the island. Locally popular as Lellama (Lel-La-Ma), it is the second largest fish market in the country. It is situated at the north end of the Negombo Lagoon and can be seen across the lagoon bridge, which is also known as Munnakare Bridge. Approximately 4,000 boats depart to sea from here every day. Starting from 3:30am, the market is busy and thriving throughout the day, with individuals vending and bargaining over fish. This vibrant market gives tourists the opportunity to purchase fish and meet the local fisherman. It also provides the chance for them to organize fishing trips and boating excursions into the lagoon and ocean as well as learn about the fishing industry. And you will guide to the small fish market and the fish drying area.

St. Mary's Church

St. Mary's Church is a landmark edifice, a Roman Catholic church in the heart of Negombo. It is one of the largest Catholic church in Sri Lanka. The church was built in neoclassicism style with columns and plain walls. Its ceilings are painted with alabaster images of many saints. The walls at the upper level are fixed with sculptures of religious saints.[1] The unique paintings on the life of Christ on the ceiling were done by the N.S. Godamanne, a local Buddhist painter.[3] The beauty of the paintings on the nave is described as "thunderous".[4] A testator paid the cost of one of the altars, which was imported from Europe

I can only presume our tour guide was called Rome? From the moment we got picked up from our hotel, his hospitality was exemplary. He was always extremely informative about all the places we visited. He took us to him home, made us coffee and talked about his past job experiences. It was so interesting. We felt very humbled. I would definitely recommend this excursion as it’s a great opportunity to see the way the locals live. Absolute great shout out to “Rome”? Wish we got his name…
Wonderful experience

This trip was pretty amazing! We really enjoyed our guided tour with Rome. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. The highlight of the trip for us was visiting the Negombo - truly is beautiful place. The symbolism that Rome shared with us about the Initiation. Lastly, we enjoyed our lunch with the group (wasn't sure we wanted to do it or go out on our own, but glad we did!), another very important time that we had in the herbal and spices garden. this is a long day out and there is a few walking involved, but it truly is worth it. Lastly we been welcomed by Prasanna at Isora premises and well treated with sri lankan Tea. thank you all guys!
