A Colombo City Tour in an Electric Tuk Tuk – Jetwing Colombo Seven
Of all the bustling cities in Sri Lanka, none captivates quite like Colombo—the vibrant metropolitan city of the island nation. And amidst its lively streets and rich cultural tapestry, Jetwing Colombo Seven stands as a beacon of our authentic Sri Lankan hospitality and sustainability in the city. It’s a city where modernity meets tradition, where the echoes of the past harmonise with contemporary life.
Nestled within this dynamic metropolis, Jetwing Colombo Seven introduces a new era of exploration, guided by our commitment to sustainability and responsible tourism. Our brand-new fleet of zero-emission electric three-wheelers offers guests the chance to experience Colombo’s hidden gems and iconic landmarks guilt-free.
Hop onboard for a journey through Colombo’s bustling streets, where every corner reveals a new chapter in our city’s captivating story. Marvel at the fusion of architectural styles, from colonial-era buildings to sleek modern skyscrapers, as you immerse yourself in the vibrant energy of Colombo.
Just as cities like Anuradhapura’s history dates back to ancient times, so too does Colombo’s narrative unfold through the ages.
