About this experience

Your guide collects you from your hotel in Mount Lavinia and heads inland to Pannila, where a series of ancient limestone caves await. Over 13 hours, you hike to a secluded waterfall, then duck inside the cave network to observe stalactites and stalagmites formed over thousands of years, alongside the animals and plants that have made these dark chambers home. The tour is private, conducted in English, and suited to adventurers aged five and above.

Lakpura handles the logistics so you can focus on the cave. Your air-conditioned vehicle covers all transport, and each person receives two litres of bottled mineral water, energy snacks, and a sandwich for lunch. First-aid and safety equipment travel with the group throughout the day. Gratuities and additional food or personal expenses are not included.
