Our visit to Colombo was awesome. Ushuan Cross, our tour guide and driver was fantastic. We were able to go and see so many places in such a short time. Consider yourself lucky if you get Ushuan Cross in your visit to Colombo. Thanks Ushuan!

The places and the views were amazing. We were really surprised how beautiful Colombo is. It is made memorable by Ushan Croos who explained in details what are we looking for. He was very patient answering all our question and he went out of his way to make us comfortable. We couldn't ask for a better guide and driver.

Great tour. Our tour guide, Pradeep, was very knowledgeable and was able to answer all questions I had for him; a rare occurrence in my experience. The company was also very accommodating and well-communicating when our boat didn't port where we had anticipated.

It is a great way to see the city while you are in transit. Of course Sri Lanka is a wonderful country and few hours would not do the justice but if you have limited amount of time, then this would the tour to have as you can see highlights in few hours.

Great guide Flexible as you needs may be Nice site seeing All over Colombo Recommended for individuals and families Recommended

I only had 12 hours in Colombo, so the Tour by Car was the perfect way to experience most of it in a short time! Kamal picked me up from the airport and drove me to the best sight seeing spots - always making sure where I want to go. The highlight was a drive to the beach where I could watch the sunset and even had a little swim. I don’t regret booking this tour with Sri Lanka By Car!

It was my first time in Colombo and Ushan really did a great job touring me and my friend in a private aircon car. Learned a lot about history of Sri Lanka and visited beautiful places within half day tour. Felt so safe with him and I would highly recommend booking as he is a good photographer and videographer as well . Thanks so much 🫶🏻😍

The first compliment goes out to Raj at Sri Lanka by Car. What a great organizer! Very quick responses, very thorough and even during the tour constantly checking if we were happy. The second compliment goes out to our driver Ruwan! Very skillful driver, knowledgeable and friendly. Only needed one word if we wanted to stop somewhere, very flexible and enthusiastic about everything and a nice sense of humor. We truly bonded with him in only 4 days and can only recommend him if you consider a Sri Lanka tour.

We had a week long journey with John and Harsha and they were fantastic. We travelled in a relatively large group and they handled us great. Super flexible for our changing plans, supported in all early morning and late evenings collections whenever we wished. Super insightful about Sri Lanka, its history, biodiversity and best ways to see each area. Very protective of us in warning us of local scams and areas to avoid. The bus itself was great, very clear, great AC, lot of space for luggage. They even ensure I had a lovely birthday while travelling. Organising a cake for me to have during out travels. Cannot fault.

had an awesome time in Sri Lanka and Tissa made the trip unbelievable. He is extremely pleasant, very friendly and he knows every corner of Sri Lanka. We went from Colombo, Kandy, Ella, Galle,Habarana,sigiriya,Hambanthota,Matara, and back to Colombo during 9 days. Anything you want to explore in Sri Lanka; Tissa will tell you where the best places are. He gives recommendation on attractions, restaurants, beaches etc. - basically anything - he will tell you where to go and also what to stay away from. Tissa is local and his English is great and communication was easy with WhatApp. We felt very safe travelling around Sri Lanka with Tissa. The van was nice and clean throughout the entire journey and he did drive very safely. Anyone going to Sri Lanka should use Tissa. We will use him when we go back to Sri Lanka. We give him all the best and warmest recommendations. Unbelievable Country and Fantastic Tour Guide.👍

We were picked up on time from the cruise terminal and the guide and driver were very friendly and knowledgeable. They took us to all the main sights in Colombo and were more than happy to include any other sights that we might have suggested.

The tours was brilliant, our guide was Ushan and he was so knowledgeable, we learnt so much, we just hope we can remember it all. The Gangaramaya Temple was definitely the highlight. A private tour was a great option, if you book this tour ask for Ushan.

Very informative driver, nice AC car and amazing views! You pretty much get what you pay for and the driver was very spontaneous and accommodating

Our guide Kenneth arrived as stated and picked us up earlier at our request from outside our hotel the Granbell in Columbo as we wanted to miss the rush hour traffic and mid morning sun, right from the start he was very friendly, polite, knowledgeable and informative about the places/towns we were driving through. We arrived at Sigiriya in good time and were shown by Kenneth where to get our tickets, it was $36 for an adult ticket which I feel is rather expensive, they didn't take cards just cash, rupees or dollars, the steps up are quite steep at the beginning and by the time I got to the paws i and many others were already out of breath, the climb is not as hard as I thought it would be but it is quite scary in places as most of the 1,200+ steps are metal and see though with gaps in between, the handrail is thin and the staircase narrow, people are walking both up and down the stairs but were very patient and polite, I did start feeling unwell and dizzy but after a rest at the top, water and lots of photos we were ready to come down, we were back in the car in less than 2 hours. The tombs at Dambulla were interesting but there were a lot of people around and photographs had to be taken quickly, after walking up the steps in Sigiriya the 350+ steps were definitely not leg friendly in places, before going home we went to the Cemetery, it was $3 to get in and quite honestly there was not much to see there, it took less than 10 minutes to walk round but it was clean and tidy and the staff there were friendly. If you choose to go on this tour we highly recommend asking if Kenneth can take you, lots of happy memories, very tired legs but anther perfect day spent in Sri Lanka.

I had a long layover in Columbo and decided to book a day tour. I’m very glad I did- Ushan was an excellent host who made me feel very welcome in Sri Lanka and gave me a fabulous tour. I would fully recommend this, and this short layover has convinced me that next time I come to Sri Lanka, I’ll need to spend more time in such a fabulous place!
