Day 1: Explore "Little Rome" in Negombo
Welcome to Sri Lanka! Your journey will begin in Negombo, which is known as “Little Rome” due to its strong Catholic influence. The town has gone through Dutch, Portuguese, and British colonial rule, and the remnants of those cultures exist today. As you walk past colonial architecture and serene canals, the city's intriguing past will reveal itself to you. You'll eventually reach a lagoon that is teeming with marine life, where local fishermen have been catching lobsters, crabs, and prawns for centuries. Take a leisurely stroll on the beach, and then head to the lively fish market before taking a break for dinner.

Day 2: Discover the Ancient Rock Fortress of Sigiriya
Start your day with a delicious breakfast at your hotel and then head over to the ancient rock fortress of Sigiriya, which was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1982. Some have even named it the eighth wonder of the world. The name Sigiriya means "Lion Rock" in English, and it is believed that visitors used to enter the monument by passing through the open jaws and throat of a lion. Unfortunately, the only remains of this lion figure today are the huge paws sculpted into the rock. Rising high above the jungle, the fortress is a magnificent sight to behold.

Day 3: Explore Temples in Dambulla & Kandy
After having breakfast, you can continue your journey to Dambulla. This town is known for its Cave Temple, which is the largest and best-preserved cave temple complex in Sri Lanka. The temple features impressive mural paintings and 157 statues, including a massive Buddha monument. It is not only a sacred pilgrimage site but also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with a history dating back to the first century BCE when King Valagambahu took refuge here. Visiting this place is definitely worth it, not just for the cave temple, but also for the beautiful view over the surrounding countryside.
Next, you can proceed to Kandy, which is strategically located between three mountain ranges and is home to the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic (Sri Dalada Maligawa), another UNESCO World Heritage Site. The impressive temple complex, dating back to the 16th century, is made up of numerous buildings decorated with paintings and carvings depicting Buddha. As the name suggests, the temple houses an important relic - the tooth of the Buddha, which is carefully guarded by security day and night.

Day 4: Learn About Ceylon Tea Production
Start your day with a visit to the Royal Botanical Gardens in Peradeniya, right after breakfast. Once the exclusive domain of royalty, it is now open to the public. The gardens boast of an impressive collection of orchids, spice gardens, a majestic avenue of royal palms, a fascinating cannonball fruit tree, and towering Burma bamboo. You can also witness the grandeur of the giant Javan fig tree, with its colossal central trunk and umbrella-like canopy of branches.
After lunch, you will get to learn about one of Sri Lanka's primary exports, Ceylon tea. As you drive through a tea plantation, you will see tea leaf-pickers in their colorful attire working hard on the steep hills, displaying incredible dexterity as they fill several sacks of tea leaves each day. This dedicated tour will give you a glimpse of the entire tea-making process, from the tea bush to your teapot.

It was designated as a wildlife sanctuary in 1900, and it's home to a wide variety of wildlife that you'll have the chance to see today on a Jeep safari. The leopards are the stars here, but the park is also home to large herds of elephants, spotted deer, sambar, wild boar, wild buffaloes, sloth bears, jackals, and mongooses. The birdlife is also fantastic, with numerous species such as rosy starlings, paradise flycatchers, crested hawk eagles, blue-tailed bee-eaters, and common loras inhabiting the area.
