Experience:

You will be starting your tour at 1000 hrs from your hotel in Sigiriya, where you will be picked up your chauffeur. Ensure that you bring a packed breakfast with you if you are unable to have your meal at the hotel.

The first stop on your itinerary will be the Sigiriya Rock Fortress which you will reach by approximately 1030 hrs.

Rising from the central plains, the iconic rocky outcrop of Sigiriya is perhaps Sri Lanka's single most dramatic sight. Near-vertical walls soar to a flat-topped summit that contains the ruins of an ancient civilization, thought to be once the epicenter of the short-lived kingdom of Kassapa, and there are spellbinding vistas across mist-wrapped forests in the early morning.

Climb the 5th century AD rock fortress, Sigiriya, where the King Kasyapa ruled. Walkthrough the entrance framed by the paws of a lion that is quite appropriate for its name, the Lion Rock. View the beautiful unfading murals that brought Sigiriya its fame. Climb the steep staircase to see the terraced gardens and still-working cisterns. Walk through the tunnels leading to the palace as you get a feel for times long past.

Thereafter proceed to Sigiriya at approximately 1330 hrs to experience a village tour.

The trek begins with an awesome walk along a bund of a “Wewa” or man-made reservoir. Thereafter you will enjoy a Bullock Cart Ride while enjoying sightseeing in the rural village life. Your next phase of adventure will be a “Catamaran Safari” at the scenic lake.

Finally, enjoy Traditional Lunch at a local house prepared by the village women. This is arranged on a typical & traditional Buffet style served on a Lotus leaf and a cane thatched flat holder. You will also have the opportunity to witness the traditional meal preparation methods by the local women and to partake in the preparation of a curry. In the end, visitors will be having a Tuk-Tuk (three-wheelers) tour back to the starting point. The total tour will be 8 km.

Later that evening you will be finishing the tour at 1800 hrs and returning to your hotel in Sigiriya by approximately 1830 hrs. En-route you may stop at Restaurant at your choice and have dinner.
