Day 1: ARRIVAL COLOMBO – NEGOMBO (8 km – 30 min)

On arrival in Sri Lanka, you will be met and assisted by a representative, who will direct you to your very own chauffeur who will be guiding you throughout the tour. If you have spare time, your chauffeur-guide will introduce you to some of Negombo’s curious sites (duration 2hrs approx.) such as the Dutch churches or laze on the golden sands. Negombo was an important port during the colonial periods. In the late 17th century, the Dutch built a network of canals, over 100km in length that was used to transport cinnamon and other spices from inland plantations to the coast.
