Tour Plan

Unbelievable technical, stone methods, wall Arts with beautiful environment shows you the unlimited talent of the Sri Lankan aborigines. This world historical monument located at Mathale District of Sri Lanka.
According to the Sri Lankan history, the king Kashyapa created this Lion’s rock for hide from his brother’s attacks.
After the king’s death the Sigiriya named as a Buddhist monastery until 14th century.

The museum in Sigiriya is well known to be the most attractive in South Asia, managed by the Central Cultural Fund. Sigiriya Museum represents its cultural, technological and archaeological value. Three decades of archaeological research on Sigiriya, the famous UNESCO world heritage site, can be explored at the Sigiriya Museum.

The design of the museum was inspired by the sophisticated design of Sigiriya itself. It followed the concept of Green Building with the mastery use of water and the use of trees so that it stimulates a true experience. Furthermore, the floors are built so that visitors can feel the Sigiriya climb through the ascending terraces and the wide stairways.

Minneriya National Park, which is part of the elephant corridor that connects Kaudulla and Wasgamuwa National Parks, provides visitors with the opportunity to see elephant herds all year. May to October is the best period to visit Minneriya National Park in view of the world-famous Great Elephant Gathering of the Asian wild elephants.

Our day started with a scenic drive that set the stage for an unforgettable adventure. Climbing the rock was a blend of history and breathtaking views, making every step worth it. We loved the thrill of the jeep safari afterward, where wildlife made surprise appearances, adding to the excitement of the day. The local guide was knowledgeable and passionate, sharing fascinating stories about the culture and landscape we were exploring. One small suggestion would be to add a bit more time at the wildlife park; we were left wanting to see a few more animals before heading back. Overall, this experience was a fantastic mix of nature, culture, and camaraderie that we all cherished.

Exploring the ancient rock fortress and then hopping into a jeep for a safari made for an unforgettable day. The drive from Trincomalee to Kuchchaveli was filled with stunning landscapes and moments to soak in the local culture. Once we reached Sigiriya, the climb was a bit challenging, but the incredible views from the top made it all worthwhile. Later, we ventured into Minneriya for the wildlife safari, where seeing elephants in their natural habitat was a real highlight. One minor suggestion would be to have a bit more time at the rock itself; we could have easily lingered longer to enjoy the surroundings. Overall, it was a fantastic adventure that combined history and nature seamlessly!

I genuinely had a fantastic time on this adventure! Climbing Sigiriya was exhilarating, and the panoramic views from the top made every step worth it, especially after hearing stories from fellow climbers about the ancient significance of the place. The jeep safari in Minneriya was a highlight too; spotting elephants in their natural habitat felt like a privilege. I appreciated the enthusiastic guide who shared interesting tidbits about the wildlife. If there’s anything I would suggest, it would be to allow a bit more time for the safari, as I could have stayed out there for hours. Overall, it was a well-paced day that perfectly blended nature and culture.
