“Our family of four had a terrific tuktuk tour of Colombo with Ranjith and Chatura who picked us up at the cruise port gate. They immediately walked us through the adjacent Maritime Museum for a visual explanation of Sri Lanka and Colombo's history from 200 BC to the present. We then hopped aboard their clean and comfortable tuktuks where they offered cold bottles of water. We made stops at iconic buildings, a gem store, tea and spice factory, independence memorial, Hindu and Buddhist temples. They gave us ample time to ask questions and take photos before dropping us back at the port gate.”
