Giant Buddhas & Ancient Sigiriya
Your exploration of Sri Lanka begins in the cultural north and ends on the island’s famous tropical coast with a series of unforgettable sights and adventures sandwiched in between. First stop is a nature walk and boat ride with local fishermen followed by a visit to the ancient ruins and giant Buddha statues at Polonnaruwa. Nearby lies distinctive Sigiriya Rock, where a climb to the top is rewarded with magnificent views of the lush countryside, later explored on an easy village to village bike ride.

Kandy is home to the holiest Buddhist shrine - the Temple of the Tooth. You’ll explore the surrounding hills and tea country of Sri Lanka by local train. Then you can enjoy a walk to World’s End at Horton Plains,before descending to Yala National Park for a wildlife safari.
