About this experience

Your private 13-hour day trip from Bentota begins with a hotel pick-up in an air-conditioned vehicle, with an English-speaking chauffeur guide at the wheel for the full journey. Head inland to Peradeniya Botanical Gardens, where you walk among an extensive collection of orchids, palms, and tropical plants spread across manicured grounds. Next, step into the heart of Kandy to visit the revered Temple of the Tooth Relic, one of Buddhism's most sacred sites. Entrance tickets for both attractions are not included, so carry local currency. A stroll along the tranquil Kandy Lake rounds off your time in the hill capital before the return drive to Bentota.

Lakpura handles all the logistics — private transport, a knowledgeable guide, and two 500 ml water bottles per person are provided. Open to travellers aged five and above, this is a fully private excursion, so the vehicle and guide are exclusively yours throughout the day.
