About this experience

Partite da Kandy e viaggiate verso nord nel cuore antico dello Sri Lanka in questo tour privato di 2 giorni. La vostra guida autista di lingua inglese vi porta al Tempio della Grotta Dorata di Dambulla, dove oltre cento figurine di Buddha riempiono cinque santuari scavati nella roccia, quindi ad Anuradhapura — la prima capitale dell'isola — dove dagoba, alberi Bo sacri e palazzi di pietra si estendono su più di due millenni di storia. Tutti i trasporti, il carburante, il parcheggio e i pedaggi autostradali sono inclusi; i biglietti d'ingresso sono pagati separatamente all'arrivo.

Nel secondo giorno, entrate nel Parco Nazionale di Wilpattu — il più grande dello Sri Lanka — dove leopardi, elefanti e orsi pigri si muovono in un paesaggio di villus (laghi naturali) e foresta secca. La vostra guida autista vi accompagna per tutto il tour. Il tour è completamente privato, con un'età minima di cinque anni, e si svolge in inglese. L'alloggio in hotel e le spese personali sono organizzati indipendentemente.
