Overview
What makes this tour different is the personal, local experience. Your guide, Sheroen, is one of Kandy’s original tuk-tuk tour drivers and has been guiding visitors for many years, long before tuk-tuk tours became popular. This is not a fixed itinerary. You can choose the places you want to see, or let Sheroen create the best route based on your time and interests. The tour moves at your pace, with flexible stops, photo breaks, and honest local recommendations — no tourist traps. You’ll see Kandy through the eyes of a true local, learning stories and details that don’t appear in guidebooks, while enjoying the comfort and freedom of a private tuk-tuk experience.
