Perfect Tuk Tuk Tour of Colombo - We had such a fun time! Dinuka was prompt in picking us up from our hotel and kept us entertained for the whole tour. He was a wealth of knowledge and engaged our two teens throughout the entire tour. We very much enjoyed the local food that we ate, and all the tour locations were exactly what we hoped to see. I definitely recommend booking Dinuka’s tour!

A great tour guide - We would highly recommend Dinuka as your tuk tuk tour guide. He is very professional and knowledgeable and attentive. Though it was a public holiday, there was less traffic but we were able to see a lot of interesting sights with less people. A good experience and value.

Columbo by Tuk Tuk - This is our second visit to Columbo and second time touring with Dinka of Columbo Bay Tuk Tuk City Tours. Dinka leads a great tour (we were a caravan of 4 tuk tuks) and makes sure that everyone sees the major sights in the city. He took us to an authentic restaurant for lunch, introduced us to Sri Lankan specialty ice cream, Pani Cadju and then brought us to a tea shop for the tea experience. Excellent day! Highly recommended!!

Great time! - Dinuka was a great guide, navigating the city expertly (even in some of the craziest traffic). We enjoyed so much hearing and seeing some of the history of Colombo thru his eyes! He took us to a few temples, the old town hall, an amazing vegetable market, and several other places - but just viewing the city from his Tuk Tuk was one of our favorite parts. Thanks, Dinuka, for spending a large part of your day with us!

First class service from an experienced team - Just as it said it would be. We were met on time and where we were instructed to. Very friendly, organised team of drivers, provided good information and a wide range of Temples, Mosques and Buddhas to visit as well as a market and tea shop.
The meal provided was interesting and tasty, but not enough diet drink available. My driver ensured I had plenty of water and even shared a pepper sandwich- excellent day.

Colombo Bay Tuk Tuk City Tour - Mr Dinuka was friendly, thoughtful and generous with his time. He made us like we were on tour with a friend than a guide. He is definitely someone you should engage if you want to know and see the real Colombo.

Great city tour - This was a fantastic way to see the city of Colombo. Dinuka our guide was really knowledgable and showed us around so many places. Our children were aged 9 and 10 loved the experience. The street food stop off was brilliant who knew egg hoppers could be so tasty. Even though we ended up with a rain storm Dinuka had umbrellas at the ready. Highly recommend.
