Explore Sri Lanka’s South Coast on this tour from Galle to Ambalangoda and Madu River. Visit the historic Galle Dutch Fort, stroll its ramparts and cobblestone streets, enjoy a cooking demonstration with lunch, see traditional masks at Ambalangoda, take a scenic boat ride on Madu River, and visit a Turtle Hatchery for an unforgettable cultural and nature experience.
You will be picked up from your hotel in Negombo, Colombo, Mount Lavinia, Kalutara, Bentota, Beruwela or Galle and then transfer to visit Dutch Fort of Galle. The fort is a historical, archaeological and architectural heritage monument, which even after more than 423 years maintains a polished appearance, thanks to extensive reconstruction work done by Archaeological Department of Sri Lanka.
Next stop is Ambalangoda, known for its exquisite collection of native masks, carved throughout the generations of professional carvers from the region. Don's miss the variety of masks available for sale, as the current productions are more garish and vibrant in colour.
Later on you will visit Balapitiya and have lunch at Gangabada Asiriya Restaurant. After lunch, you can discover the unique beauty of Maduganga River on a boat trip. A relatively unspoiled lagoon, the Maduganga estuary is a 915-hectare complex coastal wetland ecosystem that opens to the Indian Ocean.
Learn about Sri Lanka’s marine conservation efforts with a visit to a Turtle Hatchery, where you can see rescued sea turtles and discover how hatcheries protect eggs and release hatchlings back into the ocean.
