    Great one day trip from Colombo to the inner parts of Sri Lanka. Kandy is one of the biggest cities in Sri Lanka. Iconic. Great visits...you get to see spices, woodwork, gemstones, and iconic religious locations.

    Great way to see a lot of Kandy in a day

    Great way to see a lot of things in the Kandy region and do some shopping too. Both my guide and driver were very nice and talked to me about a lot of things so I got a better understanding of life in Sri Lanka. Very long day, so I would not make other plans.
