About this experience

Board your air-conditioned vehicle in Mount Lavinia and head to Diyasaru Park — a 60-acre urban wetland tucked within the Thalawathugoda area of Sri Jayawardanapura, Colombo District. Over five hours, your expert naturalist guide leads you on a nature hike through marshes, flooded woodlands, lakes, and ponds, pointing out resident and migratory bird species as you go. Entrance tickets are included, and the tour runs as a private activity, so the guide's full attention stays with your group. Minimum age is five years.

Food, drinks, and gratuities are not included, so carry a light snack and water for the walk. This is a particularly rewarding outing for dedicated birdwatchers — the wetland habitats attract a wide variety of species within easy reach of central Colombo.
