Kandy Holidays

Sri Lanka’s second largest city, Kandy enjoys a scenic setting around a lake and is home to the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic, said to house Buddha’s tooth.

Kandy was the former capital of Sri Lanka and has a buzzing atmosphere filled with lively markets, colonial architecture, and of course the surrounding natural landscape. For the foodies out there, Kandy has seen a growth of restaurants that offer traditional Kandyan cuisine, perfect for those wanting a truly authentic visit.

Charming boutique hotels nestle in the surrounding hills and the renowned Royal Botanic Gardens are located in nearby Peradeniya.

Whether you want to explore Sri Lanka with your own private driver, on a cycling holiday, a sociable small group tour, or a relaxing beach holiday – they are the perfect people to ask.
