About this trip

Spend a day exploring the south coast at your own pace. Your driver picks you up from your hotel and takes you along the coast road to Galle Fort, the old walled town with its ramparts, lighthouse and quiet streets.

Because the tour is private, you decide how long to stay at each stop. It is a good choice for a day when the sea is too rough for boat trips.

Tell us your hotel, date and group size, and we confirm with our partner on WhatsApp.
