Awesome introduction to Colombo!
This tour was better than I expected. Ryan was super friendly and knowledgeable about Colombo and Sri Lanka. He even gave me advice about my upcoming itinerary. The bars we went to were fun and interesting. Great introduction to the city. I travel a lot and go on similar tours often — this was one of the best.

Best tour ever
I travelled in Sri Lanka for two weeks in March with this company and it was the best tour experience I’ve had so far.
Dilshan is very friendly, very helpful, and you can see that he really loves his job.
He helped me with everything and made my trip very comfortable from beginning to end.
Thanks to him, I saw Sri Lanka from a very different perspective.
Thank you for everything, I highly recommend.

We had a great experience there, tasting the local arrack with ginger beer, absolutely amazing combination served with local bar bites. This is the t...read more

Not to be missed when you're in Colombo
Had a brilliant night out with the Dodgy Bar Tour crew. It was excellent to step off the beaten track and get a more textured view of life and history in Sri Lanka. A highlight of my trip!

One of the Highlights of Our Two Weeks in Sri Lanka!
The Dodgy Bar Tour was a highlight of our time in Sri Lanka - so much so that we basically asked Dilshan to help us plan the rest of our trip!
There are lots of tours and operators in Sri Lanka that funnel tourists into the same small set of places. Soulful Sri Lanka is doing something very cool and different - we went with them to some of the country's better-known destinations but they helped us do it in a way that beat crowds and created a way more interesting experience.
