Awesome is the word for him. A suave guide, knowledgeable who has got his math right. Would certainly recommend every visitor to avail his services.

Die Tour hat uns sehr gut gefallen und war ein absolutes Highlight unserer Reise. Madawa war ein sehr lockerer, netter Guide der uns sehr viel über Galle, aber auch allgemein über Sri Lanka erzählt hat und auf jede Frage eingegangen ist. Jeder, der Galle besucht, sollte diesen Rundgang buchen.

We had a great walking tour with Madawa through Galle Fort. He shared a lot of insight into the colonial history, architecture and local culture, things we definitely wouldn’t have picked up on without a guide. His storytelling was engaging and informative and he made the tour feel personal and relaxed. Highly recommended if you want to truly understand the place beyond what you see on the surface.

The tour was great, Madawa was extremely knowledgeable about the history of Galle Fort and very friendly and easy to chat to!

Malik was an absolutely amazing guide. From the moment we met, he welcomed us with warmth, genuine kindness, and deep knowledge of Galle’s rich history. He brought the streets of the old fort to life with fascinating stories, local insights, and a clear passion for what he does. What really stood out was his personal touch—he didn’t just repeat facts, he shared the soul of the place through anecdotes, cultural details, and even recommendations for hidden gems around town. We felt like we were exploring Galle with a friend rather than a guide. I can’t recommend Malik enough if you want an authentic and engaging experience in Sri Lanka. A highlight of our trip!

Great tour around the fort of Galle with very detailled Information at every stop on the way. We highly recommend the tour with Malik. He is a very knowledgable and totally friendly and authentic guide.

We have done many Guru Walk tours around Asia and this was up there with one of the best. Malik has perfect English and was so knowledgeable about Galle and every other area in Sri Lanka too in terms of history, politics, geography and culture. We left this tour knowing so much more than we did before. Really enjoyed our time and would highly recommend.

Absolutely loved the tour. Malik was very knowledgeable and passionate about history. I learnt a lot, even about everyday Sri Lankan Culture. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone, as it gives you a great insight into the diverse and rich history.

If you’re a first time visitor to Galle you must take the Fort walking tour. It orients you with the place better and some of its past history. You will get insights on the culture and people who have lived here. In all, it’s a great starting point for you to discover more and plan your stay better.
