We saw a lot of Colombo in a few hours in a late model mini bus with air con. Driver was very good and with good English. However at end it was a bit difficult to get to any markets for shopping so we just visited one Brand shop as a friend wanted Ceylon Tea. All in all great value. They met us at the ship. Dropped us off at Port gate on return and we took shuttle buses from there to the ship The hlghlight was the Buddhist temple and also Colombo was very very tidy and all be it a lot of old infrastructure littering was not evident. Most surprising and impressive. Sri Lanka is definitely worth a visit. Our trip was too short. Plenty more to see for sure. Read less ^ Explore Search Plan Review Account
