Enjoy breakfast at hotel. We visit Ramboda Hanumanji Temple, also known as the Sri Bhakta Hanuman Temple, is a significant Hindu temple located in the Ramboda area of Sri Lanka. It is believed that the area around Ramboda is where Hanuman first set foot in Sri Lanka while searching for Sita. Proceed to Nuwara Eliya, Nuwara Eliya - The ‘Little England’ of Sri Lanka, is set against beautiful backdrops of Mountains, Valleys, Waterfalls and Tea Plantations. It is supposed to be one of the coolest places in the Island, but it is really just like an English spring day, although the temperature does drop at night. All around Nuwara Eliya you will see evidence of the British influence, houses like country cottages or Queen Ann style mansions. On arrival, we proceed to Greagory Lake to enjoy views (boat ride extra)

Enjoy breakfast at the hotel. Today morning we proceed to Bentota. Enroute we stop to witness St Clairs Falls & Devon Falls. St. Clair's Falls, often referred to as the "Little Niagara of Sri Lanka," is one of the most beautiful and well-known waterfalls in the country. Devon Falls, also known as the "Veil of the Valley," is another spectacular waterfall located in the central highlands of Sri Lanka. Enroute to Bentota, guest can enjoy activity of White-Water Rafting at Kitulgala on the Kelani River which attracts adventure enthusiasts from all over. The river offers rapids of varying difficulty, suitable for both beginners and experienced rafters. Arrive at Bentota and Relax at your hotel

After the breakfast. Proceed to Kosgoda visit Turtle Hatchery. Kosgoda is famous for its sea turtle conservation project operated by the Wild Life Protection Society of Sri Lanka. Although October to April is the main laying season, some eggs (mostly green turtles) can be found at Kosgoda throughout the year. The hatchery buries the eggs in sand, and when they hatch around 50 days later the baby turtles are released into the sea at night. Only about one in 1,000 turtles survives to maturity. Later we proceed to enjoy boat rode on Madu River. A boat trip is a wonderful way of seeing some of the hundreds of species of plants and animals – monkeys eat fruit in the trees, a water monitor lizard glides slowly through the water, and cormorants, egrets and kingfishers wait patiently on the banks, eyeing the water for prey. There are around 64 islands in the river and lagoon, from a tiny speck housing a deserted shrine to one housing 250 families connected to the mainland with a very long footbridge.

After enjoying your breakfast, proceed to the airport for your return flight. We hope you had a great holiday and hope to see you again soon.
