One of the best experiences in Galle, if not in all of Sri Lanka, is to head off into the countryside around the town. You will meander through paddy fields, little villages and cinnamon plantations. Most importantly, you will witness the local way of life and taking your time just to enjoy the serenity of it all. The total bike ride can either be an easy-going 12kms or a longer 26kms. The bikes we use are of excellent quality. Helmets and a private guide to show you the way.
This journey to Sri Lanka combines the tea country with a stay on Sri Lanka’s south coast, more of a relaxing holiday than immersive tour, a way to sit-back and relax and simply enjoy the destination.
