Galle Private Tour

We'll pick you up from your hotel in Unawatuna at 8 am and start this private tour to Galle, an ancient colonial town in Sri Lanka.

After a short drive along the southern coast of Sri Lanka, we'll reach Galle, significant for its fascinating history. The tour will begin with an exploration of the fortification of Galle, discussing the Portuguese and Dutch occupation in the 18th century.

First, we'll see the Galle Fort, a complex of great historical value that withstood the devastating 2004 tsunami. From here, we'll head to the bastions of Utrecht and Triton, two defensive sites with views of the bay.

Then, we'll walk through the streets of the old town of Galle and, if you wish, you can explore the Maritime Museum. After the guided tour, you'll have free time for lunch at a local restaurant and to relax on the beach.

At the agreed time, we'll meet again and leave Galle to return to Unawatuna. We'll end the tour at your hotel after 7 hours.
