El primer día, explore el Templo de la Cueva Dorada de Dambulla, un Sitio de Patrimonio Mundial de la UNESCO que sirvió como reino antiguo y monasterio para monjes budistas y peregrinos. Luego suba Sigiriya, la Fortaleza 'Lion Rock' del siglo V construida por el Rey Kasyapa, otro Sitio de Patrimonio Mundial de la UNESCO y uno de los mejores ejemplos del patrimonio antiguo de Sri Lanka. Termine la tarde con una inmersiva gira por el pueblo en Sigiriya.

Climb the 5th century AD rock fortress, Sigiriya, where the King Kasyapa ruled. Walk through the entrance framed by the paws of a lion that is quite appropriate for its name, ' the Lion Rock'.

Thereafter visit a local village in Sigiriya and get an authentic experience of Sri Lankan village life. (Travel Time – 20 to 30 mins)

Get a chance to go on an oxen cart ride, and experience the world from the view of a village farmer. Have a relaxing catamaran safari through a calm lake. Walk through the golden fields ripe with their harvest of paddy. Watch an enjoyable traditional cooking demonstration that teaches you the basics of Sri Lankan cuisine. Delight your taste buds with a home-cooked lunch; made over a wood-fire and served on fragrant lotus leaves placed over woven trays. Enjoy the life of a Sri Lankan villager, just this day.
