What to do and see in Colombo, Western Province: The Best Multi-day Tours

June 13, 2021 Christa Meece

Colombo is the gateway to Sri Lanka for most travelers—but don’t be tempted to simply pass through this diverse and interesting city. Take a train ride along the coast to Mount Lavinia, a popular beach, or explore the Talangama Wetland, which several TripAdvisor travelers say is the perfect place to take a break from the bustling streets of the city.

The park offers everything that is needed for an exciting safari. Great landscapes, many animals, especially elephants! We were very close to the elephants and were very lucky to be able to watch a whole herd and also some baby elephants. Furthermore, I would like to emphasize our tour guide - not only did he inspire and excite us with his very good mood, he also saw many small animals with his trained eye and answered our questions thoroughly. The 3 hours passed by in no time and gave us many nice memories. Would totally recommend booking a trip with these guys :-)

Ashiq Aswar is a superb tour guide! Him and Rizni took my family around on a tour of Colombo that included shopping and then a tour of the outskirts of a bee farm, spice gardens a private tour visiting and riding elephants. We had a great lunch in a clean and air-conditioned restaurant. The van was clean and comfortable. They picked us up and dropped us back. This trip was actually in the early part of last year in spring, but the calendar on Trip Advisor only goes back to summer of last year. They were very attentive, very caring and personable. I would highly recommend Ashiq and Kingfisher tours to anyone visiting Colombo, Sri Lanka ????????

From airport to sigiriya. it's taking 4 hours to reach sigiriya. On the way going to visit dabulla cave temple. It is also believed to be home to prehistoric Sri Lankans as burial sites have been found with skeletons that are about 2700 years old. However, only after the arrival of Buddhism in Sri Lanka did the caves flourish. It is traditionally thought that Valagamba of Anuradhapura had the caves converted into a temple. After visiting dabulla temple we are going to have a Sri Lankan traditional lunch. After having lunch we are going to visit minneriya National Park. That is the best place to see the elephants on the wild. Its take like it 3 to 3 and half hour inside the National Park. After finish minneriya National Park we are going to hotel. Overnight staying sigiriya. Relax on the hotel and having dinner from hotel.

Our experience with Fivemo tours was through a car rental package for a week. Pushpaka, our driver, was extremely professional and helpful. He gave us suggestions on places to go and eat, and also went out of his way to take care of us. He was also great company during the many hours we spent in the car with him. The car itself was also clean, spacious, and comfortable. Would recommend if you are looking for private car rental when visiting Sri Lanka.

BH Tours are one of the best tour companies I have come across. From planning, booking and the tour my experience with them have been remarkable. Unfortunately, due to the current pandemic, I had to cut my tour short but I was very pleased with the way my tour guide, Mr. Dana and Mr. Hasitha handled the whole situation. God willing, I will definitely go back and continue my tour with them. And also book other destinations through them

It’s a great experience. The ambiance is very welcoming and charming. Amazing food and service. Staff are extremely polite and friendly and I just want to say that, in addition to awesome food, we had a delightful waiter, “Dhanushka”. He had just the right balance of friendliness and efficiency. He recognized that we wanted time to visit and made certain that we had everything we needed.
