🕌 Kandy One Day Tour – Culture, Spirituality & Scenic Beauty

Step into the cultural capital of Sri Lanka with our Kandy One Day Tour, a journey that weaves through history, heritage, and highland charm. Departing from Bentota, this full-day adventure offers a deep dive into the spiritual and scenic heart of the island.

Your experience begins with a visit to the famous Elephant Orphanage in Pinnawala, where you can observe rescued elephants being cared for in a loving environment. Watch them bathe in the river and feed on palm leaves—a delightful and educational encounter for all ages.

Next, enjoy a tranquil drive into the hills toward Kandy, passing lush tea plantations along the way. You’ll stop at a Tea Factory to see how Sri Lanka’s world-renowned Ceylon tea is produced—from plucking to processing—and enjoy a fresh cup straight from the source.

Once in Kandy, visit an Ayurvedic Herbal Garden, where you’ll learn about the island’s traditional healing methods using local herbs and spices. The aromas and natural remedies here offer a unique sensory experience.

The highlight of your day will be the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic, one of the most revered Buddhist temples in Asia. This UNESCO World Heritage Site houses a relic of the Buddha and is an important pilgrimage destination. The temple’s architecture, rituals, and peaceful surroundings provide a spiritual pause in your journey.

Before heading back, enjoy some free time at the Kandy City Shopping Center, where you can browse for gems, batik, spices, and handicrafts. You may also visit the Royal Botanical Gardens in Peradeniya (optional), a lush, beautifully maintained garden with thousands of plant species.
