Sigiriya Rock Fortress Instagram Tour: The Most Iconic Spots

Our 'Sigiriya Rock Fortress Instagram Tour' is designed for adventure seekers who love to hike and want to experience some of the most beautiful and historic sites in Sri Lanka!   

Your day begins with an early pick up directly from your hotel by one of our amazing local guides who will drive you to the famous Sigiriya Rock (also known as Lion Rock). This ancient fortress is an UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the most popular attractions in Sri Lanka so a visit to this beautiful country wouldn't be complete without this! Once you've arrived, your first hiking adventure of the day can start! The hike up to the top of the rock is a bit strenuous, but the breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside make it all worthwhile! Along the way, you will also see the beautiful frescoes and ancient ruins that are scattered around the rock.

After a morning of hiking, we'll take a break for lunch and enjoy some delicious local cuisine. Once you're fueled up, we'll head to Pidurangala Rock for the second hike of the day! Pidurangala is a lesser-known hiking spot, but by no means less impressive! On the contrary! We'll trek to the summit of this massive rock formation, which offers incredible views of Sigiriya Rock.

During the second part of the day, we'll slow down the pace as we can imagine that even the most experienced hikers can get tired after 2 hikes! That's why we will take you for a well deserved drink at a secret location with stunning views! After this, we will end the tour at the Dambulla Royal Cave Temple, which is another UNESCO World Heritage site. This ancient temple complex dates back to the 1st century BC and features five stunning caves that are filled with beautiful Buddhist art and sculptures.

Throughout the tour, our knowledgeable guide will provide fascinating insights into the history and culture of Sri Lanka. We'll also have plenty of opportunities to interact with locals and learn more about their way of life.

The highlights of this tour include:

• Sigiriya Rock (Lion Rock) hike
• Pidurangala Rock hike
• Recharge with a drink at a secret location that offers stunning views
