Galle Day Tour

Overview

Galle, located on the southwestern tip of Sri Lanka, is a city steeped in colonial history. The highlight of this day tour is the magnificent Galle Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that was first built by the Portuguese in the 16th century and later fortified extensively by the Dutch in the 17th century. Wander through narrow cobblestone streets lined with colonial-era buildings, charming boutiques, art galleries, and cafés. Visit the iconic Galle Lighthouse, the Dutch Reformed Church, and the Maritime Archaeology Museum. Explore the ramparts for stunning views of the Indian Ocean, and discover local artisan workshops. After the fort tour, visit the nearby beaches of Unawatuna for golden sands and calm waters.
