Great visit! - Tour with Nishan was great! I especially liked the fish market and walk along the Dutch Canal. Nishan took the time to tell us more about the country and culture, all while driving us safely around, accompanied by great music.

Interesting learning experience! - I went on the trip today with my mom through the city of Negombo! We made a lot of stops and Nishan knew a lot about everything! The history, how everything is done etc.! He bought cold water for us and cut up mango! Would recommend doing both the city tour and the boat tour with him! Amazing person and we learned a lot of new things from him! Istuti Nishan!😊

A definite must do in Negombo - Wow what a fantastic tour. Nishan was incredible, fun, knowledgeable and showed us the best time. We did 2 tours with him and both were outstanding. I loved stopping on the Lagoon and eating the most beautiful fruit platter while sitting on chairs in the water to visiting the dried fish market, it didn't smell a bit 🤣, truly. To seeing and understand the diversity of religions, visiting them all, again, Nishans knowledge was incredible. A definite must do

Perfect tour! - The tour was all you could wish for in Negombo. I got picked up on time, 5 am, to go to the fresh fish market. The guide told me a lot about the market. Afterwards he took me to many places and gave me the time to explore, but also provided me with lots of information. I would definitely recommend!
