Highlights

The most common mode of transport in Sri Lanka is via a three-wheeled automobile appropriately referred to as Tuk-Tuk’s from the noise of their motors. If you have not been in a TUK TUK you have not visited Sri Lanka. The best and most enjoyable way of creeping through the busy streets of Colombo. You will be picked up by the vehicle at Port or your Hotel in Colombo and then you will start the TUK TUK ride through the busy streets of Colombo (Approx. 30 – 45 Minutes). Then you will be transferred back to the Air Conditioned Vehicle with the Chauffeur guide for the remainder of the tour which includes seeing Colombo attractions such as the Residential area and areas of historical significance; Cinnamon Gardens, Old Parliament, Victoria Park, Town Hall, Jamiul Alfar Mosque and the Gangaramaya Temple

About Colombo

Colombo is Sri Lanka's largest city and commercial capital, where colonial landmarks, Buddhist temples, busy markets and a seafront promenade meet.

Galle Face Green, a long seafront lawn, fills with families, kite flyers and street-food stalls as the sun sets over the Indian Ocean. Nearby, the Fort district keeps colonial buildings such as the Old Dutch Hospital, restored as shops and restaurants, and the red-and-white striped Jami Ul-Alfar Mosque rises over the crowded market streets of Pettah.

Top-ranked sights in Colombo: Gangaramaya Temple, Galle Face Green, Independence Square.
