We had a tour with Nishan yesterday, and it was great! He was ready and waiting for us when we came out of the hotel. Nishan really made sure we had a good time, letting us pick music for riding around in the tuk tuk and making sure we got some great photos.

It was our first day in Sri Lanka and the Tuk Tuk tour was very interesting. Our drivers Nishan and Vishud drove us safe and explained a lot. We had plenty time to take photos. Everything was fine and we recommend Nishan and Vishud.

It was an educational experience, it was really nice to see an outside fish market where fish were caught and dried. Also it is a beautiful Buddhist temple with a huge history there.
Also nice ride on tyk-tyk which takes you all around Negombo. It is worth to take this tour.

Very informative and answered a lot of our many questions. Great way to see negombo and not very touristy it was more authentic. Would definitely recommend doing the boat tour aswell, they bring out fruit as well as getting up close with monkeys which was an unforgettable experience! Organised transport last minute for us for the next day which was very helpful. 10/10 would recommend !!!

Aside from the ease of booking same day, Minesh arrived promptly at the hotel and shared all the main local attractions in Negombo. While on the drive, he suggested to do this “safari” which was nice. Not quite sure it’s truly worth the $40 (as I choose the non-fruit option but if you want to have fresh fruit included it’s another $10) but nonetheless still enjoyable. He is very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. He also has a very cool Tuk Tuk and if you do the night ride it lights up 😜

We had a brilliant time on this tour and learned much about the history of the city. We saw so much of the city and had the opportunity to do various activities during the tour (visited an Ayurvedic garden, visited a market, option to go on a lagoon safari). Worth noting that you visit various temples so dress appropriately/bring a shawl. Thank you for a great experience!

Nishan was a great guide! He showed the highlights of Negombo with all the explenation that you need without going into too much detail. At some places he just leaves you free to do some exploratie of your own and he offers at every place to take a picture of you 😃. He even bought me a mango and king coconut at the market! 🤗

Driver was punctual, knowledgable, friendly and flexible. He spoke excellent English and at our request took us to a couple of bird spotting locations. He also went the extra mile to help us locate some specialty shops on the way back to our hotel that stocked our sizes on clothing and footwear items we’d left at home.

Picked us up from Dolphin which is quite far out of town. Knowledge guy and very interesting without giving too much information. Super polite asked if we wanted to take a detour to shops which we did not so tailored the tour to where we wanted to see. There were also a church which was not open and he took us to an alternative which seemed better to me. Thanks so much had a great time and experience.

I had an great afternoon tour with Nishan.
He told me lots of interesting things about the sights we saw and answered all the questions I had. Took photos of me at each other, which is always appreciated as an solo traveller.
He even let me choose the music in the tuktuk.
I felt like the tour took you to all of the sights of Negombo, it felt like the full package.
I would highly recommend to anyone with an day/morning/afternoon in Negombo.
