Day 1: 

Set out on your 8-hour journey at 8:30am, when your chauffeur-guide will collect you from your hotel in a private Air conditioned vehicle. Start your tour with the visit to National Museum (own expense), the oldest and largest museum in the country that’s highly regarded for its antiques collection. Continue to the magnificent Kelaniya Temple, one of three holy places in Sri Lanka visited by Buddha.
