Overview

Join us to take you through a walk of the City of Colombo - the Central business district which has transformed itself originally from a Fort built by the Portuguese to a thriving trading center over a period 500 years.

Immerse yourself in Colombo's ancient history and modern culture on this small-group walking tour. You'll get out from behind glass bus windows and experience the bustle of the city yourself by traveling on foot. Your guide will provide insightful commentary as you travel and you'll have plenty of time to ask questions.

This walking tour is also combined with a few Tuk Tuk rides which you gives you an authentic experience of daily Sri Lankan life. Part proceeds of the tour are channeled towards the education of orphaned children that I sponsor towards providing them with a better future

Explore the wonder of Asia!
Think Sri Lanka! Think EvaGo!
