Kandy Private Guided City Tour by Tuk Tuk - What You Get for $6 per Person (and why it feels like a bargain)

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 1,307 reviews · 4.5 hours · from $6Our pick

Tuk-tuk through UNESCO Kandy with a flexible private guide, free temple and tea stops, and hilltop views, starting from $6.

“My guide was Dinesh Perera. He was fantastic, turned up on time at my hotel, was very knowledgeable about the places on the visit and asked me which ones I wanted to do. My favourite was the tea factory. His driving was very safe and after he took me back to my hotel he waited until I collected my luggage and dropped me off in Kandy town. This is a great tour, an amazing experience and excellent value for money. If you’re lucky you might get Dinesh as your guide.”

“I cannot recommend Ricky highly enough—he is an absolutely brilliant and knowledgeable guide! The tour of Colombo was fantastic; we managed to cover all the important sites and immerse ourselves in the local markets, which was exactly what I wanted. As a female traveler exploring the city alone, safety was a priority, and I was hesitant to venture deep into the bustling markets by myself. Ricky immediately put all my concerns at ease. He provided so much history and information about every location, and his friendly, professional manner ensured I felt completely comfortable and secure throughout the entire experience. Ricky is super friendly, incredibly informative, and clearly takes great p...”

“YOU MUST BOOK THIS TOUR WHEN YOU COME TO KANDY!!! I was blessed to spend the time with Andrew, what a blessing. The tour was more than 5 hours and accommodated a stop for me to collect some things b4 the place closed. I love temples and Andrew went out of his way to take me to a quiet white temple.
