Both great drivers, they know their way around and we felt safe crossing the streets in the rush hour. They were adaptable and patiente, giving us time to take pictures and ask questions and also teachingus how to eat the local food. This was a great experience and I recommend this tour to anyone visiting Colombo, especially if you have a short stay in the city.”
