What To Expect
Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi
The Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi is a sacred fig tree, or Ficus religiosa, that stands in the Mahamewna Gardens in Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka. Not only is it the closest authentic living link to Gautama Buddha, it is also the oldest human-planted tree in the world with a known planting date and a recorded history.
The Ruwanweliseya is sited in the Ancient Sinhala capital of Anuradhapura in the North Central Province of Sri Lanka. It was built by King Dutugamunu (137 BC – 119 BC) and completed by his younger brother, King Saddhatissa, after his death. The Ruwanweliseya is ranked among the tallest ancient monuments in the world.

5.00We had an amazing experience traveling around Sri Lanka with our driver and guide. From the very beginning, he was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and made us feel completely comfortable. His driving was always safe and careful, which allowed us to relax and fully enjoy the journey. What really made the trip special was his flexibility and willingness to adapt the itinerary to our interests. He was always happy to stop whenever we wanted to take photos, try local food, or explore something unexpected along the way. His knowledge about the country, culture, and history added so much value to the experience. More than just a driver, he truly felt like a guide and a friend throughout the trip. He was reliable, punctual, and always had great suggestions for places to visit. Traveling with him made discovering Sri Lanka easy, enjoyable, and stress-free. We highly recommend his services to anyone visiting Sri Lanka who wants a safe, friendly, and flexible guide. He played a big role in making our trip unforgettable.
