    We booked a Shore Excursion with this company for our group of 16 which was a Shared Tour for 4 Hours. when we dock out of the Ship we found the Tour Group with the Shore Excursion board and easily got us to the Coach. The Tour was very smooth and we are sure that we will not get this much of experience for a short period of 4 hours in the City with a great experience of the Old Dutch Places. Aashik was our guide and he was very kind, he always try to explore us more and give brief descriptions for each and every places clearly. The Highlight of the City Tour was the Old Dutch Church and Red Mosque at Pettah which was very attractional with its beautiful architecture. Aashik knows every places in Colombo and he manages the time properly for all the travellers in our Coach of 40 travellers. He took us to a Gem Shop where we got a good knowledge of Srilankan Saphires and took us to a Tea Shop to taste various flavours of Tea. The Tour took more intresting for his speech and explaination by the way we are on time too the Ship without any delay too. we are so thankful to Kingfisher Tours and Aashik for arranging everything perfectly and giving us the best time in Colombo. we will definitely recomment this company and our guide for all the future travellers where we can guarantee for the money we spend
