Galle Fort

Join Lakro Leisure and Tours on a day tour to Galle Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage site located on the southern coast of Sri Lanka. This tour is the perfect way to discover the rich history and culture of Sri Lanka, as well as its stunning natural beauty.

Your adventure begins as you are picked up from your hotel in the morning and driven along the scenic southern coastal road. En route, you will enjoy picturesque views of the Indian Ocean and the lush green landscapes of Sri Lanka.

Upon arrival in Galle Fort, you will be transported back in time as you explore the 17th-century Dutch colonial architecture and winding streets that make up this fascinating fortress town. The fort is a melting pot of cultures and religions, with Buddhist temples, Christian churches, and Islamic mosques all coexisting in harmony.

During your tour, you will visit iconic landmarks such as the Galle Lighthouse, the Dutch Reformed Church, and the Old Dutch Hospital. You will also have the opportunity to browse local markets and boutique shops, where you can find unique souvenirs to take home.

After a morning of exploration, you will stop for lunch at a local restaurant, where you can enjoy delicious Sri Lankan cuisine and soak up the laid-back atmosphere of this charming town.

In the afternoon, you will have the chance to relax on the pristine beaches of Unawatuna, just a short drive from Galle Fort. You can swim in the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean, sunbathe on the golden sands, or simply unwind and take in the breathtaking views.

As the sun begins to set, you will be driven back to your hotel, full of wonderful memories of your day tour with Lakro Leisure and Tours.
