| Full of highlights! Four World Heritage Sites and a Jeep Safari
Sigiriya Rock
The gigantic Sigiriya Rock in Sri Lanka, said to be modeled after a lion, still retains traces of life in Sri Lanka at that time, as well as murals here and there.
Dambulla Cave Temple
The Dambulla Cave Temple is the largest rock-cut temple in Sri Lanka. The golden Buddha statue, shining in the shade of a naturally formed rock, is one of the most mysterious spaces in Sri Lanka.
Kandy
The temple in Kandy, the ancient capital of Sri Lanka, houses the tooth of the Buddha. Don’t miss the illustrated story that was transported from India to Kandy, Sri Lanka after much effort!
Galle
Galle , which once flourished as a trading city, still retains a strong colonial-style streetscape. Recently, there are stylish cafes and general stores, and you can enjoy a photogenic stroll through the city.
Jeep Safari in Minneriya National Park
Minneriya National Park is a national park located near the world heritage sites of Sigiriya Rock and Dambulla Cave Temple, and is famous for its high chance of encountering wild elephants. If you’re lucky, you might encounter a herd of over 50 elephants! If you ride in a jeep through rough roads and overgrown trees, you can see elephants and buffaloes bathing in the swamps, and you might also encounter other animals such as peacocks, monkeys, and crocodiles.
Shopping in Colombo!
On your last day, enjoy shopping in Colombo. We recommend Asian goods stores such as Paradise Road, Barefoot, and Serin. From antique-style chic color designs to brightly colored accessories reminiscent of tropical countries, they are stylish and perfect as souvenirs. We will also introduce you to tea specialty stores, shopping malls, supermarkets, and other stores you would like to visit.

The vast site of about 8,000 m2 is also attractive as a nature resort because squirrels and peacocks can be seen. There are cottage types and two-story building types, and the rooms are spacious. There is also an Ayurveda facility, which can be experienced as an option after sightseeing. (Optional)
Kalutara area “Coco Royal Beach Resort”
A beach resort hotel in Kalutara, located about an hour and a half from Colombo. After sightseeing, you can swim in the pool or take a walk on the beach. In addition, the buffet prepared by the head chef who honed his skills at hotels in Europe and the Middle East is well-versed in the taste of foreign travelers, and has been well-received, with many saying, “It was better than the food at a luxury hotel in Colombo!”
