Getting There

  • Public Bus

    If you're in Colombo Fort, head towards the main bus terminal. Look for buses heading to Nugegoda; they are usually numbered 138 or 152. Board the bus and enjoy the ride, which will take approximately 30-45 minutes depending on traffic. Once you reach Nugegoda, ask the bus conductor to let you know when you reach S. De S. Jayasinghe Mawatha. After you get off, walk a short distance down the road, and you will find Colombo City Tours at No: 84 on your left.

    From any central location in Colombo, you can easily find a tuk-tuk. Simply tell the driver 'Nugegoda, S. De S. Jayasinghe Mawatha, Colombo City Tours.' The journey should take around 20-30 minutes depending on traffic. It's advisable to negotiate the fare before getting in, or ensure that the meter is running.
