What you can expect

  • Please Note: This is an adventurous, long-distance day trip (approx. 8 hours) conducted by private Tuk-Tuk. It is perfect for travellers seeking an authentic local experience.

    Get ready for an authentic Sri Lankan adventure on this private tour. Experience the sights, sounds, and fresh air of the hill country up close as you travel between the region's most iconic destinations.

    Your day begins with a pickup from your Kandy hotel. Your first stop is the Ambuluwawa Tower, where you can climb the spiral staircase for panoramic views. Next, visit Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage to observe these gentle giants from a respectful distance, and watch the herd walk down to the river from the public viewing area.
