About this experience
Spend ten hours exploring the Southern Coast's standout stops on this private, English-guided day tour from Mirissa. Your chauffeur guide collects you from your hotel and drives you in an air-conditioned vehicle to a tea factory, where you follow the leaf from withering room to finished cup. Next, watch stilt fishermen balance on their ocean perches — a technique unique to this coastline. A hands-on cooking demonstration introduces you to local spices and recipes before you sit down to a fresh seafood lunch.
The afternoon takes you into Galle, where you walk the ramparts of the UNESCO-listed Galle Fort and explore its colonial streets. Hotel drop-off is included, and a one-litre water bottle is provided per person. Entrance tickets, additional meals, and gratuities are not included. Minimum age is seven, making this a comfortable choice for families and solo travellers alike.
