About this experience

Sali a bordo del tuo veicolo privato e trascorri cinque giorni esplorando il cuore agricolo dello Sri Lanka, guidato da un autista-guida che parla inglese e che farà rivivere il paesaggio. A seconda della stagione, potrai osservare i campi di riso coltivati o raccolti al ritmo delle tradizionali canzoni di raccolta, camminare tra vivai di piante e sementi, e visitare fattorie commerciali di ortaggi e frutteti. Fattorie casearie e distese di piantagioni di tè completano l'itinerario, tracciando pratiche agricole che risalgono all'era degli antichi re singalesi.

Il tuo trasporto privato copre il carburante, il parcheggio e i pedaggi autostradali in tutto il percorso, quindi non ci sono costi nascosti sulla strada. I biglietti d'ingresso ai siti, l'alloggio in hotel e le spese personali non sono inclusi, offrendoti la flessibilità di prenotare un alloggio adatto al tuo budget. Adatto a viaggiatori di età pari o superiore a cinque anni, questo è uno sguardo a terra e senza fretta alle tradizioni agricole che ancora oggi plasmano la vita quotidiana dello Sri Lanka.
