Tuk Tuk Rental in Hikkaduwa - Hikkaduwa is one of Sri Lanka’s most vibrant coastal towns, famous for its stunning beaches, coral reefs, and laid-back surf culture. Our locally guided tuk tuk tours offer an exciting and affordable way to explore Hikkaduwa’s top attractions—from cultural landmarks to hidden natural gems.

Discover the Soul of Southern Sri Lanka

Hikkaduwa, nestled along the southern coastline of Sri Lanka, is one of the country’s most iconic beach destinations. Known today for its surf waves, vibrant nightlife, and coral-rich waters, Hikkaduwa has a fascinating past that adds depth to its natural charm.

The name "Hikkaduwa" is believed to come from the words “Sip Kaduwa,” meaning “sword of knowledge,” hinting at its ancient Buddhist roots. Historically, this area was part of trade routes used by Arab and Asian merchants, and it has long been a center of fishing, cinnamon cultivation, and spirituality.

In the 1960s and ’70s, Hikkaduwa transformed into a popular destination among backpackers and surfers from Europe, drawn by its laid-back atmosphere and incredible reef breaks. Over the years, Hikkaduwa has grown into a thriving tourist town—yet it still retains the charm of a friendly local village where temples, fishing boats, and wildlife remain part of daily life.

The area also holds memories of resilience. It was one of the towns most affected by the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. But from tragedy emerged strength—the community rebuilt schools, homes, and sanctuaries, such as the Turtle Hatchery and Tsunami Museum, which today stand as powerful reminders of survival and hope.

The best place to rent a tuk-tuk in all of Sri Lanka. This is the second time I've rented one from them and I haven't had any problems. Excellent service and the tuk-tuk is in perfect condition. They help you with everything and offer support 24 hours a day. Thank you for this experience, I will definitely return.

What a great experience to self drive a tuktuk around part of Sri Lanka. It was any easy process of booking on line which included tuktukceylon arranging a local license. We were met at Anuradaphura train station by our instructor, Anjana, who was very professional in showing us around the tuktuk and giving driving lessons. Driving the tuktuk took a little getting used to, but once I got the hang of it, it was great. It is an easy for two people and two large bags to get around comfortably and see the sites. We booked the tuktuk for 6 days and went from Anuradaphura to Sigiriya then to Kandy. We would definitely do it again and can highly recommend tuktukceylon.

The tuktuk made our experience in Sri Lanka 10 times better. The tuktuk itself was easy to ride and we had no problems in the 3 weeks of using it. When we had questions we could message them and they answered straight away. Would recommend this company

Fijne ervaring gehad. Makkelijk contact via whatsapp. Tuktuk was op tijd en toen wij de inlever tijd wilde wijzigen was dit geen probleem. Wij hadden zelf de nieuwste uit 2025 en dit reed erg fijn.

Hello, I would like to thank this company for the services provided. We rented a tuktuk for 10 days. At first I had chosen an older model, but before arriving in Sri Lanka, they offered to rent a brand new 2025 model with 100 km mileage. It was the best thing to travel with a brand new tuktuk. The service center works wonderfully and quickly. Everything is clearly explained, there are really few questions. It also helped us that they arranged a driving license in Sri Lanka, and had a Tuktuk transportation service. The Tuktuk transportation service saved us when we traveled by train from Kandy to Ella. The driver picked up the tuktuk from the station and delivered it to a suitable place in another city. Really reliable and good company!! Highest recommendations!! 👍❤️🙈
