We're very glad we did this walk... Chami was a great guide with a depth of knowledge that she communicated well. An economist's perspective on the history and current state of Sri Lanka was simply fascinating and certainly enriched our visit.

We spent the most informative, interesting afternoon with Chami! Her thoughtful and expansive explanations of the social, economic and political context of modern Sri Lanka really helped us have a deeper understanding of the country and its people. We loved the natural conversational style of the tour and it really opened our eyes to the triumphs and the challenges the country has experienced. Highly recommend if you're interested in going beyond the touristing and getting a look under the hood!
