About this tour

Sri Lanka is in the midst of a brutal crisis that’s so bad, it’s been called the Asian Argentina. It’s not just food and fuel that are in short supply – power outages are also crippling businesses, and hospitals are running out of medicine. It’s like a trifecta of disaster! But that’s not all – this crisis is also a cautionary tale about the dangers of running up public debt and spending too much. It’s a reminder that sometimes, things can go from bad to worse in a hurry if we’re not careful. This interactive storytelling walk is meant to have the flow and information-heavy experience of a documentary. It takes us into a comprehensive analysis, providing surprising answers. It highlights the social and political elements of Sri Lanka, from the creation of the modern state to the current times. We’ll address both historical and current events from a balanced & non-biased point of view to help you determine your views of this land for yourself. The experience is aimed at people with a genuine interest in politics and those keen to learn more about the situation in Sri Lanka by conducting some first-hand research. Please feel free to contact me for a date and hour that works best for you.

This is a great way to know about the recent uprising and the impact it had on the lives of the Sri Lankans. The context setting was good and Chami is very passionate about the urgency for solutions to help SL get out of this. Good introduction to SL politics for beginners.

I can only recommend this tour. It was very interesting to spend three hours intensively learning about the politics and social situation in Sri Lanka. The walk to the convention center was also very impressive, we were even able to go inside. Simply great.

Our host Chami, was an absolute charm. She explained everything is such great detail, we absolutely loved it. In a matter of just 3hours, the amount of knowledge we have gained is commendable. We walk out with nothing but a heart full of hope and empathy for the people of Lanka. Highly recommend everyone visiting Colombo to take this walk tour.
