About this experience

Sali a bordo di un veicolo climatizzato presso il tuo hotel a Dambulla e dirigiti verso est a Polonnaruwa, la capitale reale dello Sri Lanka dell'11º secolo. La tua guida autista che parla inglese ti accompagnerà attraverso colossali dagoba in pietra, l'iconica roccia tempio Gal Vihara e le rovine del Palazzo Reale — strutture che hanno definito una civiltà. I biglietti d'ingresso sono pagati separatamente, quindi porta valuta locale per il sito del patrimonio.

Nel pomeriggio, scambia la pietra antica per la savana aperta mentre sali a bordo di una jeep condivisa per un safari di mezza giornata nel Parco Nazionale di Minneriya. Il bacino attira centinaia di elefanti durante la famosa stagione del Gathering, insieme a cicogne dipinte e cervi macchiati. Un litro d'acqua a persona viene fornito per il viaggio. L'intera giornata dura approssimativamente 10 ore e i bambini dai cinque anni in su sono benvenuti. Il rientro in hotel è incluso al termine del safari.
