Dulshan was a fantastic host - super personable, and a real local who shared his love of food, and secret out-of-the-way spots, which made for an incredible street food experience. Fantastic food experience!

Best food tour I’ve been on. Made special due to visiting places away from the normal tourist routes and because of Dulshan’s company. He’s engaging, courteous, knowledgable and fun to be with. Plenty of food tour options to choose from, but this one will be hard to beat! Great off the beaten track food tour

Dulshan met us at our hotel and thereafter treated us to an educational, great variety and hidden gems tour. We were transported in his very comfortable vehicle with air conditioning. My husband is a historian and he found Dulshan to be a fountain of knowledge. We were taken to places that tourists would never know about and got to experience the daily life of a Sri Lankan person living and working in Colombo. Dulshan ensured that we tasted many interesting fruits and foods of Sri Lanka. He also took us to the artist street where he helped us negotiate a good price for a painting. At the end of our tour he took us to a second hand bookstore where we had fun selecting books. Dulchan is a great guide and I highly recommend him for a days tour in Colombo.Most enjoyable day in Colombo

We had the absolute pleasure of touring Sri Lanka with one of the most outstanding guides we’ve ever met. From the moment we began our journey, it was clear we were in safe, knowledgeable hands. He was not only incredibly well-informed about the rich tapestry of Sri Lanka’s history, religion, culture, and natural beauty, but also had a gentle, thoughtful way of sharing it that made every stop meaningful. What truly set him apart, though, was his kindness and consideration — always checking in on us, making sure we were comfortable, and tailoring the experience to suit our pace and interests. His quick wit and clever sense of humour made even the longest drives fly by. He struck the perfect balance between being professional and personable, and by the end of the trip, he felt more like a friend than a guide. We feel so lucky to have explored this beautiful country with someone who clearly loves what he does — and does it exceptionally well. Highly, highly recommended.Absolutely Incredible

We had a fantastic experience with Dulshan as our tour guide. From the very beginning, his hospitality and service stood out, he made us feel completely comfortable and genuinely welcome throughout the trip. Dulshan provided detailed and engaging explanations about Sri Lanka’s history, culture, and religion, which added so much depth and meaning to the places we visited. He went the extra mile by treating us to some local delights like king coconut, delicious rolls, and sweet treats from a nearby bakery such a thoughtful touch that made the experience even more authentic. What we truly appreciated was how flexible he was, he asked if we wanted to explore any other specific places outside of the usual tourist route, and made every effort to accommodate our interests. Dulshan is not only knowledgeable but also incredibly trustworthy and friendly. On our ride back to the hotel, we had a wonderful conversation where we exchanged insights about Sri Lanka and my home country, it felt more like chatting with a friend than just a tour guide. I would highly recommend Dulshan to anyone looking for a warm, insightful, and reliable guide in Sri Lanka. He truly made our trip memorable.Dulshan more like a friend

We had a wonderful time exploring Colombo with Dulshan. He is a very charming guy that is a pleasure to hang out with. We had lot of fun while we explored some of his local favorites. He has every broad knowledge of Sri Lanka and Sri Lankan food and is very eager to share it. We explored the general market and snacked on casave chips, local tea, coconuts, samosas and more on the way. We went on to a fruit and fish market where there where only locals and had a very tasty mutton roll in the Nippon hotel (again only locals there). Overall we hat a wonderful time! Thanks Dulshan.Wonderful day in Colombo

Wow! Exceptional! Heartwarming! Dulshan is not your regular tour guide, but he is a guide with heart, and true love for wanting to show the beauty of Sri Lanka and he became a friend. Dulshan was there to customize, make pit stops, answer our 1001 questions and even go out his way for everything we wanted. We wanted him with us wherever we went cos that's how he made us feel, like family and really good company. He went above and beyond with everything and gave me a morning surprise of balloons, cake, deco and a personalised picture of me and my family as a birthday gift and I am truly appreciate and grateful for. You want to see Sri Lanka truly for its people, kindness, beauty and hidden gems, Dulshan is the way to go. <3 Dulshan made us love Sri Lanka even more!

Pete and I had the best time with Dulshan and his wife. We were both delighted his wife came as well. The whole experience was warm and personable. Dulshan is enthusiastic about his subjects, his city and his visitors. We hope to meet up with them again. Dulshan gives visitor guides a great rap and that's the highest compliment. Thank you Dulshan 😊 Terrific introduction to Sri Lanka !!
