Itinerary

Day1

Arrival & Colombo City Highlights

Arrive at Bandaranaike International Airport or Colombo's domestic terminal. Meet your driver and transfer to your hotel in Colombo. After check-in and a short rest, enjoy a guided discovery of Colombo's key sights: Gangaramaya Temple, the colonial Old Parliament, colorful Pettah Market, and the oceanfront Galle Face Green. Evening at leisure with dinner at a recommended local restaurant.

Tip: Keep light change or a small amount of Sri Lankan cash handy for market purchases and tuk-tuk rides.

Day2

Drive to Galle via Coastal Gems

After breakfast, depart for Galle along the scenic coastal route. Stop en route at Hikkaduwa for a short beach break or optional snorkeling (marine conservation area). Visit a sea turtle hatchery and enjoy fresh seafood for lunch. Continue to Galle, check into your hotel, then explore the atmospheric Galle Fort at sunset — walk the ramparts, visit the lighthouse, and browse boutique stores.

Important: Snorkeling and turtle-hatchery visits are optional and seasonal; bring reef-safe sunscreen.

Day3

Leisure & Beach Time: Unawatuna or Bentota

Enjoy a relaxed day by the sea. Choose from sunbathing and swimming at Unawatuna Beach, trying water sports, or taking a short boat trip on Koggala Lake to spot birdlife and visit a cinnamon island (optional). Return to Galle to enjoy local cafés, colonial architecture, and an evening stroll along the fort's ramparts.

Tip: Peak beach conditions vary by season — ask your guide for the best local spots for swimming and snorkeling.
