What you can expect
Day 1: Down South → Anuradhapura
Begin your journey with pickup from your selected location along the southern coast. Enjoy a comfortable drive of approximately 6–7 hours through Sri Lanka’s rural heartlands as you make your way to Anuradhapura, the island’s first kingdom and a revered Buddhist city.
Upon arrival, visit two of the most sacred Buddhist sites: Ruwanweliseya Stupa, the magnificent white stupa glowing beautifully at night, and Sri Maha Bodhiya (Sacred Bo Tree), one of the most venerated places in the country, believed to be the oldest historically documented tree in the world.
After the visits, check in at Abey Resort for an overnight stay. (Will be Covered by Us)
Day 2: Explore Ancient Anuradhapura → Sigiriya → Kandy
Begin the day early to explore the ancient wonders of the Anuradhapura Kingdom, including Jethawanaramaya, one of the tallest brick structures in the ancient world, Kuttam Pokuna (Twin Ponds), a remarkable example of ancient hydraulic architecture, Samadhi Buddha Statue, a serene masterpiece of ancient sculpture, Abhayagiriya Monastery, a vast monastic complex full of historic significance, Ath Pokuna, a peaceful reservoir surrounded by greenery, Lankaramaya, a stupa site belonging to the early Anuradhapura era, and Thuparamaya, the oldest stupa in Sri Lanka, enshrining the sacred collarbone relic of the Buddha. The guests can customize these visits according to their preferences.
After completing the Anuradhapura tour, continue the journey to Sigiriya, where you can admire the world-famous rock fortress (optional climb depending on preference). Next, proceed to Kandy, the hill capital of Sri Lanka, where you will spend the night.
Day 3: Kandy Highlights → Return to Down South
The final morning begins with visits to two of Kandy’s most iconic attractions: Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic (Sri Dalada Maligawa), one of the most sacred temples in the Buddhist world, and Peradeniya Royal Botanical Garden, a stunning 147-acre garden famed for orchids, palm avenues, and lush landscapes.
After completing the Kandy tour, begin the return journey to Downsouth, bringing you back to your original pickup point.
