From Colombo: Anuradhapura- Jetavanaramaya Stupa Guided Tour

Stand beneath Jetavanaramaya, a 4th-century monument and one of the tallest ancient brick stupas. Visit Sri Maha Bodhi and Ruwanwelisaya with a licensed guide and private transport from Colombo.
Most Anuradhapura day tours treat the ancient capital as a checklist of five stops squeezed into one itinerary. This tour centers on Jetavanaramaya, the single largest brick stupa built anywhere in the ancient world, so you get real time to take in its scale and the story of how 4th-century builders raised it, before continuing through the rest of Sri Lanka's sacred city.

Your licensed English-speaking chauffeur-guide picks you up from your hotel in Colombo, Negombo or Katunayake (or from Colombo Airport or Colombo Harbour) and drives you to Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka's royal and religious capital from the 4th century BC.

At Jetavanaramaya, you'll learn how the monument's brickwork has survived over 1,600 years and why it's still considered one of the tallest brick structures from the ancient world. From there, you'll visit the Sri Maha Bodhi, grown from a cutting of the tree the Buddha is said to have attained enlightenment under, and Ruwanwelisaya, a hemispherical relic stupa sacred to Buddhists worldwide. Your guide also brings you to Thuparama, the island's earliest dagoba, the Abhayagiriya Museum, the Samadhi Buddha Statue, and Isurumuniya Temple, carved into rock beside a lotus pond.

Throughout the day, your guide shares the history behind each site rather than rushing between stops, giving you context for why Anuradhapura was Sri Lanka's capital for over a thousand years.
