Beschreibung
Discover the Sigiriya Rock Fortress and Dambulla Cave Temple on a private trip from Kandy. Travel in comfort with a local guide, explore at your own pace, and enjoy scenic countryside views.
Begin with a convenient pickup from your Kandy hotel and settle into your private air-conditioned vehicle. Travel through rural villages, green forests, paddy fields, spice-growing areas, and traditional Sri Lankan landscapes while your chauffeur-guide shares local insight.
Explore the ancient “Lion Rock,” a dramatic rock fortress known for its gardens, frescoes, water gardens, archaeological remains, and sweeping views. Climb the many steps to the summit for panoramic countryside views, or stay closer to ground level and enjoy the lower gardens and views of the famous rock.
Continue to the Golden Temple of Dambulla, an ancient Buddhist cave complex filled with Buddha statues, colorful murals, and religious artwork. Depending on your preferences and the day’s schedule, there may be time to stop for photographs, refreshments, or a local lunch.
After visiting both landmarks, travel back comfortably to your hotel in Kandy.
