Dambulla, Sigiriya & Village Safari - AWESOME!
Sri Lanka Holiday Homes And Tours的点评
点评:After a delightful Galle Fort & Tea Factory tour conducted by Nuwan, we booked him for yet another full day adventure. This time we headed northwards to Dambulla & Sigiriya for what became one of the highlights of our trip.
Once again, Nuwan promptly collected us early in the morning from our hotel in Colombo, and then safely navigated the congested streets.
As we left the hustle & bustle behind, he pointed out things of interest like brown monkeys hanging in nearby trees and darting across the road. We stopped briefly to take photos as some creeped nearer to the car with keen fixation on nabbing our phones from us. Nuwan purchased curd and treacle, a local delicacy, for us to sample along the way.
Our first attraction was Dambulla Cave temple. The hike was very daunting, with us having to make numerous rest stops before reaching the top. Drink lots of water on the way up and pace yourself accordingly! Once there, the temple exhibits, and panoramic views were well worth the climb.
We were then off to the famous Sigiriya rock. Words cannot describe how awestruck it was to witness this massive fortress closeup and in person. Our trip to Sri Lanka was capped off by this unique experience.
Our afternoon ended with one of the most peaceful jaunts we've ever encountered in our travels. A native village safari - which included a ride in an oxcart, then a canoe trip to an authentic village kitchen where we watched as native dishes were prepared by hand and then offered for us to sample. Walking through a rice paddy in the cool of the evening was a perfect culmination of a delightful day.
The entire itinerary was created by Nuwan, who took great pride in delivering a memorable experience for us.
翻译:在Nuwan的带领下,我们愉快地游览了加勒古堡和茶厂,之后我们又预约了他安排的另一次全天探险之旅。这次我们向北前往丹布勒和锡吉里耶,这成为了我们旅程中的亮点之一。
Nuwan再次一大早就准时到我们在科伦坡的酒店接我们,然后安全地穿过拥挤的街道。
当我们告别喧嚣的都市时,他指给我们看了一些有趣的东西,比如棕色的猴子挂在附近的树上,或者在马路上飞奔。我们停下来拍照,因为有些猴子悄悄地靠近我们的车,一心想抢走我们的手机。Nuwan买了当地特色凝乳和糖浆,让我们一路品尝。
我们的第一个景点是丹布勒石窟寺。徒步非常艰巨,我们不得不在到达山顶之前多次停下来休息。上山途中一定要多喝水,并控制好自己的速度!到达山顶后,寺庙的展品和壮丽的景色绝对值得我们攀登。
之后,我们前往著名的锡吉里耶巨石。近距离亲眼目睹这座雄伟的堡垒,那种震撼之感难以言表。这次独特的体验为我们的斯里兰卡之旅画上了圆满的句号。
下午的行程以我们旅途中最宁静的旅程之一结束。我们参观了原住民村落——包括乘坐牛车,然后乘独木舟前往地道的乡村厨房,在那里我们观看了当地菜肴的手工制作,并品尝了这些菜肴。在凉爽的夜晚漫步稻田,为美好的一天画上了完美的句号。
整个行程由Nuwan精心设计,他非常自豪地为我们带来了一次难忘的体验。
