Our Story

We are Tangalle Tuk Tuk

A local Sri Lankan family business dedicated to giving tourists the ultimate freedom to explore our beautiful island. Started from a single tuk tuk and a passion for sharing Tangalle with the world.

From one tuk tuk to a full adventure fleet

Tangalle Tuk Tuk Rentals was born from a simple idea: tourists deserve to explore Sri Lanka on their own terms, at their own pace, and with the guidance of someone who truly loves this island.

Roshan, our founder, grew up in Tangalle watching foreign visitors struggle with expensive tours that rushed them past the places he knew were most magical. In 2018, he started renting out his family's first tuk tuk to a backpacker couple from Germany — and the rest, as they say, is history.

Today, we have a fleet of premium tuk tuks, a team of passionate locals, and over 500 happy travelers who have explored Sri Lanka their way — on three wheels, with wind in their hair and zero agenda except adventure.
