Sigiriya, an ancient palace, was once nominated as the 8th wonder of the world. Today, Sigiriya and Dambulla are a UNESCO recognized heritage site and a major tourist attraction. The city of Dambulla is 148 km north-east of Colombo, in the Central Province of Sri Lanka. It is home to an ancient cave Temple also known as the Golden Rock Temple, which is a popular tourist attraction. Approximately 25kms from Dambulla is Sigiriya, which is where you will find the “Lion’s Rock”. This is a 220 metre high rock, at the top of which an ancient King built his Palace. In addition to being a well maintained model of ancient urban life, Sigiriya is also an adventure of rock climbing for many. A day tour of Sigiriya and Dambulla will suffice for you to explore Sri Lanka’s Majestic past.

My tour was absolutely outstanding. My driver was perfect and the drive was comfortable and pleasant. He was able to answer all questions and in most instances, accompanied me and answered my questions for the sites. The best part was the elephant safari. After a slow start, I saw so many of these fantastic beasts that it gave me the best memories of Sri Lanka. Though I was a solo traveler and the elephants were my favorite part, this was the perfect tour and I wholeheartedly recommend it and this company.
