Tour Overview
Discover the Cultural Heart of Sri Lanka
Surrounded by green hills in Sri Lanka’s central highlands, Kandy is one of the island’s most important cultural and historical destinations.
At the heart of the city is the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic, one of Sri Lanka’s most revered landmarks. Around it, travellers can discover Kandy Lake, traditional performances, colourful markets, colonial-era architecture, botanical gardens, viewpoints, and the relaxed atmosphere of the hill country.
