Itineraries
Day 1
Arrival - Kotugoda
One of our representatives will greet you when you arrive in Colombo and take you to your rural lodging. Despite being only a 15-minute drive from Colombo International Airport, Wallawwa's lush surroundings are incredibly peaceful, nestled in a peaceful area of Negombo's rural hinterland. Colombo is only thirty minutes away, as is beach-beloved Negombo, a Catholic community well-known for its fishing industry, large lake, and system of historic Dutch canals.
Day 2
Sigiriya
You will be picked up from Horathapola and driven to Sigiriya, which is located in Sri Lanka's cultural triangle, following a leisurely breakfast. The remainder of the day is yours to explore the surrounding countryside and possibly even visit the nearby village.
Day 3
Sigiriya
You have some free time this morning; you might want to use the hotel pool. You have a jeep safari in one of the three local national parks in the afternoon; the exact one will be selected on the day to give you the best chance of seeing the wildlife, which includes a variety of birds, elephants, sambar deer, and monkeys.
Day 4
Sigiriya
Your driver guide will accompany you to Sigiriya Rock this morning, where they can tell you about the rock's history while you take in the breathtaking views from the summit. Visit the Dambulla caves, which are from the first century, when you get back. Buddha statues of various sizes can be found in the caves. There are also striking ceiling frescoes in a few of the caves.
Day 5
Passikudah
Your driver guide will first take you to Polonnaruwa, the second capital of Sri Lanka, after you depart the Aliya today.

Following your exploration of Polonnaruwa, you will continue your journey along the coast for the next three nights.

After picking you up from Nanu Oya Station, your driver will take you to your hotel for the next two nights.
Day 11

The remainder of the day will be yours to unwind.
