Overview
Travel through Sri Lanka's Cultural Heart and discover the Enchantment of Kandy.
A Kandy Tour transports you to Sri Lanka's vivid essence where old customs collide with amazing natural beauty. Wandering this UNESCO-listed city will help you to understand why Kandy has enthralled visitors for ages. The instant you arrive, the pure mountain air and rich green hills create an environment unlike anywhere else in the nation. Starting in the famed Temple of the Tooth, where Buddhism's most prized relic is housed, your Kandy Tour Monks' morning chants resound in the elaborate hallways as golden light dances through sculpted windows. Through their worn-through stone walls and elaborate wood carvings, the royal palace complex nearby reveals tales of Kandyan rulers. Stories not found in guidebooks help our local guide bring these old sites to life.
Walking around Kandy Lake provides a quiet break where you may see purple-faced leaf monkeys playing in the trees and residents feeding fish after sunset. One of Kandy's most attractive locations is created by the lake's sparkling surface precisely reflecting the surrounding hills. Towering palms, delicate orchids, and the well-known avenue of rubber trees established by world leaders highlight Sri Lanka's amazing biodiversity for those who enjoy the natural world. Your Kandy Tour veers dynamically toward traditional dance displays as twilight falls. You will be enthralled with the rhythmic drumming, vibrant costumes, and daring fire dances. If you visit in July or August, you will see the amazing Esala Perahera celebration, in which lavishly adorned elephants stroll the streets surrounded by hundreds of dancers and drummers. Beyond the city, your Kandy Tour can consist of a visit to a functional tea plant where you will learn how Sri Lanka's most well-known export is produced or a picturesque train trip across tea land. The nearby hills provide calm hideaways like the Udawattakele Forest Reserve, where bird cries abound among rich vegetation under the direction of pathways. Whether it's negotiating for spices in the busy markets, learning to prepare traditional meals with a local family, or just drinking world-class Ceylon tea while enjoying the mountain vistas, every Kandy Tour with us comprises real local experiences. From colonial-era guesthouses to boutique hotels with breathtaking views, we deliberately choose lodging that capture Kandy's appeal. A Kandy Tour offers an immersion into Sri Lanka's living culture, not merely tourism. Long after you go, the memories you will create here—from morning at holy shrines to sunset across the lake—will linger.
