Driver, Khan, excellent. Vehicle, Suzuki car, small, comfortable even for 6' 4" person sat in front and two small in back. great air-con (important in Colombo!). Terrible communication. No local contact number. I guessed at Port Gate 1a as the most likely pickup point, there was nobody to geet us. I asked other drivers looking for business, they were friendly and helpful but didn't know Kingfisher Tours. Eventually, Khan appeared, he didn't know our name or booking details, but we 'had to be' his clients that day, so off we went and had an enjoyable tour with a very nice, helpful guide/driver.

Had an amazing half day tour and our guide was phenomenal. We were on a cruise so he picked us up at the port gate which was great. We saw and did so many things, Buddhist and Hindu temples, mosques, tea, gems, government buildings, lotus tower, neighborhoods, shopping streets and beach. We tried almond tarts with our iced coffee break at the bottom of the tower (tasty but drier than cake we’re used to). Two of our group travel with walkers and poc’s and our guide made everything we did as easy as possible to accommodate us.

We had previously seen the main sites of Columbo, so we asked to visit other off the route places. The driver & guide were really helpful and adaptable to our wishes and redesigned the day to fit with our plans. Great people and fantastic tour.

We had a lovely time seeing Colombo with our guide Noor. Especially loved the Hindu temple and Independence Square. We hadn't been to Colombo before, so this tour was spot on. My wife has mobility limitations so we could customise it accordingly and Noor was so considerate. Definitely recommend this
