Get underneath the skin of the Sri Lankan capital on a walking tour with a charismatic local resident as your guide. The walk focuses on photography, architecture and history in two stages; stage one covers the Fort while stage two covers the Pettah market. It will also include a break for tea and stops along the way to sample street food. The walks usually start and end at the Old Dutch Hospital and often a chance to have a drink and a further chat with your entertaining guide. For those looking to get a taste of Colombo’s nightlife, the same locals can take you on a ‘Dodgy Bar Tour’ to some of Sri Lanka’s most interesting and atmospheric establishments.
