About this experience
Quittez votre hôtel à Galle et montez dans un véhicule climatisé privé tandis que votre chauffeur-guide anglophone vous guide à travers 7,5 heures des sites les plus gratifiants du sud du Sri Lanka. Commencez au Fort de Galle, un site du patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO, où vous parcourez des rues pavées portant encore leurs noms hollandais d'origine — passant devant des remparts coloniaux, des églises anciennes et des ruelles bordées de boutiques qui racontent quatre siècles d'histoire commerciale.
Du fort, voyagez vers le nord jusqu'à la rivière Madu, où vous montez à bord d'un bateau et dérivez à travers des canaux de mangroves denses qui ombragent l'eau des deux côtés. Guettez les varans sur les racines, les martins-pêcheurs qui volètent au-dessus, et les rythmes tranquilles d'un écosystème de zones humides largement inchangé depuis des générations. La prise en charge et la restitution à l'hôtel, le transport et le safari fluvial sont tous inclus ; apportez vos propres collations et boissons, car les repas ne sont pas couverts.

Well worth it, even with the rain!
A bit wet and rainy but well worth the experience! Saw birds, flying foxes, snakes, monkeys and so many big water monitors! Our guide was very friendly (I’m so sorry sir, I forgot your name!). Wear a rain jacket, accept…
