Description
Please Note: This is an extremely long and fast-paced 14-16 hour tour, designed only for travelers on a long layover or those with an absolute minimum of time who want to see Sri Lanka’s top two landmarks.
Your marathon day begins with a very early start from Negombo. We drive straight to the Sigiriya Rock Fortress for you to climb this UNESCO World Heritage site.
Immediately after your climb, we journey to the hill capital, Kandy, for a visit to the sacred Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic.
Following this, you will be transferred directly to the Bandaranaike International Airport (CMB) for your late-night flight. This tour prioritizes seeing the sites over relaxation.
