- Excursion7725921 contribution1325km through Sri Lanka in a tuktukWe drove 2 weeks through Sri Lanka with the tuktuk of Dayan. It was a great adventure. When we arrived everything was arranged as planned via whatsapp. Driver license and taxi. We got driver's lesson untill Dayan was ok with our skills. Then together on the route to see if we were able to drive in traffic. We made a train trip from Nuwara Elya to Ella and our tuktuk was transported on time. Everything was more than ok. Very friendly man. Thank you Dayan and assistants.Visited October 2023Traveled with familyWritten October 20, 2023
- Louisedvk18 contributionsAmazing tuktuk vacationWe rented a tuktuk for three weeks and it was absolutely great!! We had te best time. The tuktuk was great and Dayan is very helpful. He is always available for questions or when you have problems. We had to go the garage at one point (because of our own fault), he was in contact with the garage and arranged everything via phone. Afterwards we got that money back. Dayan also fixes your driving license. All in all a great experience.Visited December 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten December 3, 2023
- Matthias M2 contributionsGreat value and price service!Dylan‘s Ceylon Tusker is a great place to tent your tuktuk. He is offering great the prices in comparison to the big providers and also a great service. Whenever there was any issue, he immediately reacted and offered help.Visited November 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten December 11, 2023
- Bert TVaassen, The Netherlands91 contributionsTravel by tuktuk is a great experienceWe rented 2 Tuks for 6 weeks travel through Sri Lanka. Dayan is a very friendly man, he arranged our drivers license in front. He made us a good price, US$11 a day, 1 tuk. This was our second experience with Dayan and his tuks, so we didn't pay a deposit. We asked 1 liter oil and a little tank for extra petrol and he arranged it. De small things we had to repare on the way, he directly payed it back. We took the tuks over very bad roads but they kept on going. Driving a tuk is a great experience. Rent them with Dayan is the best.Visited January 2024Traveled as a coupleWritten January 27, 2024
- Sherpa194730563591 contributionDayan tuk rental is topWe rented a tutuk from Dayan for six weeks. It was a great experience driving with tuk tuk through Sri Lanka. We did the same also with Dayan in 2019 and that was very nice so we decided to do it one more time in 2023. Both times we had a lot off fun with the tuks and have seen manij animals in nature parks, temples, arcelogical sites and beaches. If something was broke there where in no time srilankan people who want to help. Along te way childere where waving when we drove along with our red and green tuks. So we had a very good holiday en de tuks from Dayan did there work. Dayan self is a verij friendly person who can arrange everything for you to drive with tuk in Sri Lanka. It felt very good with DayanVisited December 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten January 28, 2024
- Lily FNorthamptonshire, United Kingdom8 contributionsA must for tuktuk rentalWe hired a tuktuk for 3 weeks through Annalisa from a gentleman called Dayan. It was the best decision and an amazing experience. Dayan was great at communication and supplied us with a fantastic tuktuk. He was extremely trustworthy and reliable and I would recommend him in a heart beat. He was also incredibly reasonably priced compared to other companies such as tuktuk rental. We will be back in a few years to hire another tuktuk from Dayan and explore the rest of the island! 100% recommend!Visited January 2024Traveled as a coupleWritten January 28, 2024

We rent a tuktuk for 14 days, it was amazing!
The hospitality and kindness from Dayan and his cousins were absolutely perfect.
Because of the Corona Virus we had to stay longer in Sri Lanka and I contacted Dayan for a taxi from Negombo to Weligama, he sent his Cousin to bring us for a good price.
Dayan will be there to help you 24/7, thank you!

We have rented a tuktuk by Dayan for 3 weeks and loved it so much! His service is amazing and you can call him anytime you need help. The staff is really friendly as well! The first day we got a tuktuk driving lesson, as it is different from driving a car. They explained everything pretty good and gave us a safe feeling. We definitely recommend renting a tuktuk to explore the country and Dayan is an amazing host. When we come back to Sri Lanka, we will rent a tuktuk from him again. Just do it, you will not regret it :)

Easy communication with Dylan, very competitive prices, full services.
We have rented a tuk tuk for 8 days to do a tour of the south and central part of Sri Lanka.
Worthy to mention: in Sri Lanka the EU driver license is not recognized directly , you have to certify it in Sri Lanka national license. So there are 2 options: you get an international driver license from your country or you change it to the local one.
Because of the time we chose the second option. This company also is offering this service for 40 USD. you send your driver license and passport copy in advance over email and when you will land you will have it .
Another important point to mention: I never drove a tuk tuk or motorcycle before.
Patiently 1h one of his employees (I forgot his name , but I will send him with this occasion my many thanks for his patience and amability) gave me driving classes.
The experience of driving the tuk tuk was amazing and I recommend this to everyone as it is the best way to visit this beautiful country.
The tuk tuk was in a very good technical shape. Not a problem at all in all these 8 days.
We fully recommend renting from here.

We have rented our tuktuk from Dayan for 23 days and it was the best decision! Dayan is very kind, quick to respond and we highly recommend his services. It was a new tuktuk and we have had no issues during the three weeks we were traveling. He first gave us a driving lessons, arranged our local drivers licenses and gave us some spare fuel just in case. We were with three people and were able to fit in our three big backpacks in the back. It’s a great way to discover Sri Lanka and the locals enjoy seeing tourists driving a tuktuk.

Super smooth service for tuktuk rental in Negombo. Started with extensive training end explanation. We were Dayan first clients after Covid and we rented tuktuk for 1 month. Dayan is very kind and you can contact him during your trip 24/7. For reparation save the ticket and he pays you back.
If you want to travel on your own, certainly rent tuktuk here! Best way to discover Sri Lanka.

My girlfriend friend and I had the most amazing experience and it was all thanks to Dayan and his tuk tuk! We went on a 3 week road trip all over the country and loved every second of it. Thanks to the onsite driving lesson we felt comfortable from day one. The price was also very good - only $12/day! Trust me when I say use Dayan and his tuk tuks, you won't regret it!

I would love to know what people did with their luggage or backpacks when they wanted to stop during the day, before you golt to your accommodation, and go sightseeing?
I am guessing the simple answer is that you must take it with you whenever you leave the Tuk Tuk?
Really looking forward to hearing what you did when hiring a Tuk Tuk to travel around.

We used a cable lock to lock our two backpacks in the tuk tuk and just used small day packs to take with us when we left the tuk tuk to do anything.
We did have a light coat and a pair of runners taken at Nuwara Eliya when we left them unsecured, but we should have known better.
