Habarana Excursion

At 10 am, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Sigiriya and travel to the town of Habarana, which is about half an hour away.

Upon arrival, we will transition from a tuk tuk to an ox-drawn cart, a traditional mode of transport, to reach the shores of Habarana Lake. After disembarking, we will board a boat for a ride across the lake.

Following the boat ride, we'll visit rice fields to observe the cultivation of this staple cereal grain. You will appreciate walking through the expansive rice fields.

Subsequently, we will return to the center of Habarana to meet a local family who will teach us to prepare their traditional recipes. After the cooking class, we will enjoy a delicious buffet lunch consisting of rice, curry, fish, salad, and papadam.

At the end of the excursion, we will return you to your hotel in Sigiriya, arriving at 1:30 pm.
