Be transported to the rich cultural heritage of Sri Lanka resplendent with age-old kingdoms and a culture so uniquely and carefully guarded by its people. Thereafter you head towards the ancient kingdoms where Kings queens roamed in resplendent palanquins to palaces built on rocks or view the Dambulla Cave temple displaying the richness of ancient arts and craft. Enjoy the panoramic views atop Sigiriya and Dambulla. Witness the famous ‘Elephant Gathering’ at the Minneriya National Park, where hundreds of elephants frolic at the water holes. You can also step into a rural village through the Hiriwadunna Nature Trail; a village where trees outnumber people, with catamaran boat trips on the lake and bullock cart rides as part of its highlights. Explore the nature trails of Sri Lanka off the beaten tracks that take you to lesser known sites of the island.
