Explore Sigiriya with a private tour
Fancy soaking up some culture as well as the sun? Then book a slot on the Sigiriya private tour.
The ancient city is sometimes unofficially referred to as the eighth wonder of the world, and boy, does it live up to that reputation. Standing 200-metres high, this UNESCO World Heritage Site will make you feel truly secluded from the rest of the world.
It would be a travesty not to venture all this way to not have your guide take a picture of you in front of Lion’s Rock. This pair of pawprints were carved into the bedrock as a line of defence before becoming a top tourist attraction in recent times. The Rock Palace is another must. Found at the summit, some elements of this fortress are still intact with carvings and sculptures found here too.
Once you’ve finished, head to the Royal Gardens for a much-needed rest. Complete with water features, terraced gardens and boulders, the area previously housed Buddhist shrines. Relics of such can be found dotted around the landscape so if you’re in need of a little peace and tranquillity, you’ve hit the jackpot here.
