Nilaveli Holiday makers should consider to see some of the famous touristic highlights of Sri Lanka that are en route anyway: three World Heritage Sites and the Asia's largest gathering of wild elephants. With an overnight stay on the way, it's possible to visit all of this. The hotel you book must be located in or near Sigiriya or Habarana.
On request, we could pick-up you at another place of your choice in Colombo or Negombo or in between or near the Airport, for example a specific railway station instead of a hotel.
Our chauffeur guide will be greeting you with "Ayubowan" (May you live long) and then we will be proceeding to Dambulla in central Sri Lanka. Please advise the chauffeur if you need any stop for a break or taking pictures on the way through Colombo or in the countryside.
Among the hundreds of cave temples of Sri Lanka, the Golden Temple of Dambulla is by far the most impressive one. This World Heritage Site has not only the largest painted caves but also the highest quality Kandyan paintings found anywhere on the island.
Take part in an afternoon safari to see dozens or sometimes even hundreds of wild elephants. Depending on the their seasonal migration, the safari could take place in Kaudulla National Park or Hurulu Eco Park instead of Minneriya National park.
Sigiriya, one of the most popular tourist destinations on the island, is a World Heritage Site with many attractions, such as Lion Rock, fortifications, ancient gardens, famous frescoes of cloud maidens, mirror wall, giant lion's paw and summit palace with stunning view 360 degrees.
Polonnaruwa was the medieval capital of Sri Lanka. The archaeological site is crowded with ruins of richly decorated temples and palaces and includes the iconic group of rock-cut Buddhist statues which are among the most celebrated pieces of Asian art.
Drop-off will be in the hotel of your choice in Trincomalee or at the beaches of Uppuveli or Nilveli further North.
