Exciting tour

Very nice tour lead by Degoda. It was a food tour but he mixt it with some cultural things . He is always full of energy and seems to know everybody in the street and market,then you are welcome everywhere by warm smiles.

Fantastic Local Tour

This food market tour with Priyantha was excellent and exactly what I was looking for. We walked through the Pettah neighborhood and market and stopped along the way to try something or look at a cultural site. Priyantha was a great guide and would definitely recommend for others!

An amazing Tour!

Thank you Muditha for an incredible tour. We had a large group (8) and you managed to make it work perfectly for us, navigating the busy streets and entertaining us with fascinating stories and information about the delicious food we were tasting. I'd highly recommend this tour to anyone who is interested - Muditha is amazing!
