Madu River Safari, Galle Fort and Southern Coast
Get picked up from your hotel in Negombo and travel to Balapitiya for an unforgettable boat safari on the Madu River. Enjoy this popular activity, a must-do on a Sri Lanka holiday.
Journey past massive mangrove forests and glide beneath the canopy of forest tunnels as they curve playfully towards the watercourse.
Take in the unique biodiversity of the Madu River and its surrounding islands, which boast hundreds of birds, plants, fish and animals.
Next, proceed to Galle, with an en-route stop at a turtle hatchery, and spend some time with these amazing creatures.
Arrive in Galle and explore the colonial Dutch Fort of Galle, one of Sri Lanka's largest forts.
Admire how, in stark contrast to the busy, tuk-tuk-filled streets of the main city, the Fort feels like stepping back in time to an atmospheric European settlement.
Immerse yourself in the beauty of this magical, serene place as you stroll through the atmospheric old streets, quaint churches and wonderful seafood spots at the right time of day.
Proceed to Koggala or Ahangama to witness the skilled stilt fishermen.
Transfer back to your hotel after spending an amazing day on the southern coast of Sri Lanka.
