My lively hometown Galle has so much to offer: A rich history, a modern city with shops and markets, traditional stilt-fishermen and the day will end with a romantic dinner at the beach.
We visit Dutch fort and you walk near the beach up to the wonderful situated lighthouse. We see the famous stilt-fishermen, have a city-tour and visit colourful markets, modern shops and quiet places.
Itinerary:
• We join with you at your hotel in Galle, Weligama, Mirissa and around.

In a quiet atmosphere, not crowded by many tourists, you visit a spiritual getaway and see slowly fading paintings on the walls and a Bodhi-tree.
