Cycling from Anuradhapura

Pedal through Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka's oldest city, on a private 4.5-hour mountain-bike tour guided by an experienced local. Your guide leads you along the entire cycling route, past ancient ruins that have stood for over two millennia — crumbling dagobas, sacred bodhi trees, and stone remnants of a once-grand civilisation. Listen to the legends and stories behind each site as you ride at a comfortable pace through this UNESCO-listed ancient city.

Mountain bikes, helmets, and refreshments are all included, so you arrive and ride. The tour is private and open to riders aged 7 and above. Note that hotel pick-up and drop-off, entrance fees, and meals are not included, so plan accordingly before you set off.
