Kandy is the cultural and spiritual heart of Sri Lanka, a city of sacred temples, colonial buildings, a reflective lake and the surrounding highland scenery that the Kandyan kings chose as their final capital for over three hundred years. This full-day tour explores the city’s most important landmarks with an expert local guide, beginning with the sacred Temple of the Tooth Relic and continuing through the Peradeniya Botanical Gardens, Kandy Lake, and the panoramic hilltop viewpoints that frame the city against its mountain backdrop. Where timing allows, the day concludes with an evening Kandyan dance performance, a vibrant showcase of the traditional arts that the kingdom preserved. Includes round transfer, guided tour, cultural show where available, lunch and all entrance fees.
