Overview
Step back in time to the golden age of Sri Lankan civilization! Leaving Kandy at 7:00 AM, we journey to Anuradhapura, the spiritual heart of the island and its capital for over 1,500 years. This private tour is designed to reveal the architectural brilliance and deep devotion of a kingdom that shaped South Asian history.

• Ancient Engineering: Marvel at the Jetavanarama Stupa, historically one of the world's tallest structures, and discover the massive Abhayagiri and Ruwanwelisaya Dagobas.
• Living History: Visit the Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi, the sacred Bo Tree grown from a sapling of the original tree under which Lord Buddha attained Enlightenment—a site of pilgrimage for millennia.
• Artistic Wonders: Admire the serene Samadhi Buddha Statue, the intricate Moonstones, and the massive Elephant Pond. Explore the ruins of the Royal Palace and the Brazen Palace.
• Cultural Immersion: Stroll through the Archaeological Museum and the Kuttam Pokuna (Twin Ponds) to understand the sophisticated irrigation and city planning of the ancient Sinhalese.
