Travel from Kandy to the coast with a rare gem-focused journey. Explore Ratnapura’s gem market, mine, museum, waterfalls, tea, and rubber estates before a safe Bentota hotel drop.
Start early from Kandy and journey south through scenic countryside toward Ratnapura, famously known as the City of Gems. This immersive day tour combines culture, craftsmanship, nature, and comfort—ending with a smooth hotel drop in Bentota.
Your first stop is the Ratnapura Gem Market, where local traders showcase Sri Lanka’s world-famous sapphires, rubies, and semi-precious stones. Observe the authentic trading atmosphere and learn how gems are valued and exchanged.
Continue to a traditional gem mine, where you’ll safely observe the gem-mining process and understand how stones are extracted using age-old techniques.
