Places you will visit
Day 1 - Kandy
Pinnawala
Start your day early with a pick-up and head to Kandy with an en-route visit to Pinnawala elephant orphanage.,established in 1975, Pinnawala elephant orphanage is a breeding ground for wild Asian elephants. The aim of the orphanage is to protect and care for the orphaned elephants in the jungles of the island. A natural habitat is presented to the elephants where they are taken to the river twice a day. Witness Elephant Feeding. This will be an interesting activity as you will also get a chance to feed one of the elephant. Then witness elephant bathing and take some wonderful photographs.
Leave Elephant Orphanage and proceed to Kandy.
Spice Garden
Then en-route visit the auyrvedic herbal and Spice Garden where all the herbs have detailed descriptions.
Also you can enjoy 10 minutes ayurvedic head massage. you can taste cup of herbal tea.
Ambuluwawa
Then Visit Ambuluwawa.Reaching the top of Ambuluwawa one can experience the most amazing views which could sometimes be covered by the ongoing mist. However, once the mist clears off the view can be scary and freak out climbers, especially those who have a fear of heights. Hiking Ambuluwawa is not at all dangerous or risky, but it would not be the ideal kind of adventure for those with a fear of heights.
Then checking at your hotel in Kandy
Kandy Dancing Show
Then in the eveing visit Kandyan Cultural Show with its colorful traditional dances and delightful music
Temple of the tooth
Then finally we will take you to visit the Temple of the tooth during the eveining ceromoney time. veryday there are ceremonies (at 6am, 10am and 6pm) during which the tooth, kept in an ostentatious golden case, is taken out of its chamber for devout Buddhists to see. Offerings of flowers are laid before the sacred tooth’s chamber, prayers fill the room, and drummers fill the air with rhythmic song. People line up for the chance to catch a glimpse the golden case up close. While the room is sticky with sweat and humidity and the space is tight with both devotees and tourists, it is worth every second of your time. You really get a feel for the ritual, the tradition, and the importance of this place
Then Stay overnight at your hotel In Kandy

Fantastic tour guide
Prior to arriving in Sri Lanka I made contact with Tony who sent me information on trips available, we agreed that we would meet and discuss on our arrival, Tony met us promptly as agreed in the riu lobby, he was polite, pleasant and not at all pushy like the tour guides in the beach. We arranged a two day tour of Kandy and the tea plantations. Wow what a trip, Tony and the driver were always prompt, well presented and very informative. The trip was amazing and we made many stops along the way for them to show us interesting places. We also went to undawalee on safari and another excellent trip, saw so much amazing wildlife. Thank you Tony for showing us parts of your wonderful island. I can highly recommend this company for all you your requirements.
