We had such a wonderful tour from beginning to end. Everything was well organized, relaxed, and genuinely enjoyable. What I loved most was that it didn’t feel like a typical tourist experience — we had the chance to experience the local culture, try authentic Sri Lankan food, discover interesting places, and really enjoy the atmosphere of the country. Our guide was incredibly friendly, kind, knowledgeable, and attentive throughout the tour. We felt comfortable and well taken care of the entire time, and there were so many fun and memorable moments along the way. This tour definitely became one of the highlights of our Sri Lanka trip. 🇱🇰❤️ I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Sri Lanka, especially if you want to experience more than just the usual tourist attractions and get a real taste of the country and its culture. Thank you for making our time in Sri Lanka so special and unforgettable. We left with beautiful memories and would happily do it all over again! Highly recommended! 🌴✨

Galle Face is a 5 ha (12 acres) ocean-side urban park, which stretches for 500 m (1,600 ft) along the coast, in the heart of Colombo, the financial and business capital of Sri Lanka. The promenade was initially laid out in 1859 by Governor Sir Henry George Ward, although the original Galle Face Green extended over a much larger area than is seen today.

Located in the heart of Colombo in Maradana, Sri Kaileswaram Kovil in the Captain’s Garden is considered the oldest Sivan Kovil in Colombo.

The entrance to Kovil Street is near a popular landmark, the second-hand bookshops of D.R. Wijewardene Mawatha and the road goes over the Fort railway lines and ends at the Kovil grounds.

We had the most amazing morning with Blaze’s Tuk Tuk Tours. Blaze has the best communication of any tour leader I have ever had. The food was wonderful, couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you Blaze for the magical morning. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Colombo. Honest, caring young man.
Fun tour. Great guide/driver Yummy food. Highly recommend
We arrived on Celebrity Millennium, it's all a bit daunting, the cruise ship offers tours but so expensive and you can just jump on the shuttle and you will be met by many Tuk-tuk drivers and to be honest if you book with Blaze before you arrive he will look after you totally. The other drivers agree a price before you jump in and do not pay until you are finished they will always complain about not enough money and see us as millionaires and in away we are to them support Blaze and he will look after all your requirements and show you the best places, he will not moan about the injustice and you will definitely Tip him because you enjoyed your time with him and you can book for the next day too.
We had an absolutely fantastic time with Blaze Tuk Tuk Safari in Colombo! From start to finish, the tour was fun, informative, and truly memorable. He was friendly, professional, and deeply knowledgeable about the city’s history, culture, and hidden gems, so the tour felt more like exploring with a local friend than a typical sightseeing trip. If you are not hiring this tuk tuk - you wasted your visit to Colombo. Highly recommended!
Amazing tour, we highly recommend the Blaze Tuk Tuk. Great time and lots of cool information! We shop for amazing tea in the end of the tour!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Had an amazing time on Blaze’s tuk tuk food safari. We got a full sightseeing tour of Colombo along the way, with lots of history and background about the city which made it even better. The food was delicious – coconut sambal and coconut roti were the standouts for me. Blaze is a great guy and such a fun guide, really easy company. Felt more like hanging out with a mate who knows all the best spots than being on a tour. Would definitely recommend if you’re in Colombo

Blaze’s private tuk tuk tour was a great combination of Sri Lankan history, Colombo sights, and delicious street food. I highly recommend it!
Really really great afternoon out and personally one of the best ways to see the city and experiencing the food vendors. Blaze has excellent English and knowledge and wonderful guy he is. Went with my friend and we had the best time chatting and getting to know lots abt Sri Lanka (formerly called “Ceylon”… Blaze taught us that)
Blaze picked us up in his comfortable tuk-tuk in the afternoon of our first day in Colombo. He took us to a variety of food trucks, vendors, and restaurants over the four hour tour. My favorite were the hoppers! He also timed it just right that we saw the sunset from the end of Galle Face Green. Blaze is an excellent communicator, is very organized, and gives an interesting and flexible street food tour. I highly recommend this!
Blaze was friendly and took me to many tourist spots. However, he asked me extra 2,000 rupees to pay for the food because I was solo. I have never experienced this in 38 other countries that I did food tour. Even if I was solo.
We used Blaze and his team o. A daily basis while in Colombo for 3 weeks with a large cricket Team to and from fictions, bus transportation to events and personal shopping trips. Highly recommended.
Blaze was a friendly knowledgeable guide and tailored the tour to us, showing us lots of sights and getting us lots of different street food! Would recommend to anyone looking to get a fun tuk tuk tour around Colombo with the extra bonus of tasty food and drinks!
I recomend the trip and the guide . We enjoyed visiting all places he recommend. Very nice and professional man. A lot of smiles with Blaze.🥰
Blaze is incredible. Not only is his Tuk Tuk the best Tuk Tuk in all of Columbo, but he is extremely knowledgeable, and took us on an amazing tour of Columbo. Do not go shopping without Blaze. He will take you to a credible gem store(amazing gems), spice store, his favorite place to eat "real" Sri Lankan food. Besides having him as our tour guide throughout Columbo, he also took us to Udawalawe National Park. Set everything up for us. He is your 'ONE STOP SHOP", hands down. Sri Lanka will forever be in our hearts as well as you Blaze! Thank you for showing us an incredible time.
Blaze is the ‘bomb’. First of all, his Tuk Tuk is the best Tuk Tuk in all of Columbo! Secondly, you can play whatever music you’d like using his phone while enjoying the hustle and bustle of Columbo. Not only did we learn a lot about the history of Columbo, Blaze took us to enjoy ‘true’ Sri Lankan food! And don’t go Gem shopping without Blaze. He took us to an authentic Gem store that was legitimate. If we come back to Sri Lanka, we will 100% reach out to Blaze!
