Kandy Day Tour

Nestled in the central highlands, Kandy was the last capital of Sri Lanka's ancient kings and remains the island's cultural heartbeat. The centrepiece of any visit is the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic, a revered Buddhist pilgrimage site said to house a tooth relic of the Buddha himself. The tour typically also includes a visit to the Royal Botanical Gardens in Peradeniya, home to an extraordinary collection of orchids and towering avenues of trees, as well as a scenic walk around Kandy Lake. Rounding out the day, a traditional cultural dance performance showcases the vibrant Kandyan dance forms, drumming, and fire-walking rituals that have defined Sri Lankan performing arts for centuries.
