Polonnaruwa If you visit Polonnaruwa, which was the ancient capital of Sri Lanka for a long time, you should definitely see the Buddha statues. The ruins of Polonnaruwa have a huge Buddha statue in a reclining pose, which is rare in the world. In addition to the usual seated Buddha statues, there are also standing Buddha statues. Sigiriya RockThe huge Sigiriya Rock in Sri Lanka, which is said to be modeled after a lion, still retains traces of Sri Lankan life at that time and murals in various places. Dambulla Cave TempleThe largest cave temple in Sri Lanka, Dambulla Cave Temple. The golden Buddha statue shining in the shade of a natural rock is one of the most mysterious spaces in Sri Lanka. KandyThe temple in Kandy, the ancient capital of Sri Lanka, houses the tooth of Buddha. You can also see the illustrated stories that were painstakingly transported from India to Kandy, Sri Lanka! Also, on the night of the Perahara festival, elephants dressed in gorgeous costumes walk through the streets of Kandy.

| Tour General Information
●About the time required for sightseeing
The estimated sightseeing time is about 1.5 to 3 hours. (This may vary depending on the schedule, location, and weather.) The time can be adjusted, so please feel free to contact us in advance if you have any requests.
●About the pick-up area
The driver will flexibly accommodate stops at supermarkets and rest stops along the travel route, so please feel free to consult us on the day. (If the travel distance exceeds the limit due to a major change in route, etc. (approximately 20 km), an additional fee will be charged locally. Please keep this in mind.)
●About meals
Outside of urban areas such as Colombo and Kandy, there are limited restaurants, and there are often no restaurants within walking distance of hotels and tourist spots. In

Even if the plan does not include meals, we will provide transportation to places where you can eat. (Meals will be paid locally.)
If you have a request for a restaurant, please let us know in advance.
●About drivers/guides
Except for Japanese guides, there will be only one driver, and we cannot accompany you during sightseeing or meals, as you will not be able to leave the private car.
●About programs paid for locally
Train arrangements, Ayurveda, meals at hotels, marine sports, and other special arrangements are basically paid for locally.
●When using trains
We cannot arrange trains alone, so if you would like to arrange trains, we can only do so in conjunction with a package (airline ticket + local arrangements/local arrangements only)
*Please note that we cannot arrange trains if you only charter a private car.
