Colombo is Sri Lanka's cinnamon-spiced, cultural capital. At least, this is what you might be expecting if you've read such evocative novels as Shyam Selvadurai's "Cinnamon Gardens." The reality is more diverse and more exciting. Take a private Colombo tour and let a local guide show you around the tangled but alluring jungle of streets and gardens of this capital city.

Colombo's colonial heritage is evident in such buildings as the Dutch Period Museum, housed in the 17th century former home of the Dutch Governor. You may want to visit the sprawling Gangaramaya Temple, where Buddhist devotees gather, or watch a pooja ceremony at one of the colourful Hindu kovils. Your guide will be on hand to help you sample as much of the local food as you want, from refreshing lassis to coconut sambals.

Your guide is happy to design a private Colombo tour that reflects your unique travel interests in Sri Lanka's thriving capital city.
