Reiseverlauf
Sie beginnen Ihre Dorftour um 10:30 Uhr. Sie erhalten eine Wegbeschreibung zum Dorf, wo Sie zum Startzeitpunkt von Ihrem Reiseleiter abgeholt werden. Sie machen einen kurzen Spaziergang durch das Dorf, während Ihr Reiseführer Ihnen mehr über das Dorfleben erzählt. Sie beginnen Ihre ersten Aktivitäten gegen 10:45 Uhr. Der Ochsenkarren wird in srilankischen Dörfern häufig als primäres Transportmittel verwendet. Sie werden eine 15-minütige Ochsenkarrenfahrt machen, die am Ufer eines künstlichen Stausees endet. Von hier aus geht es weiter zu einer 15-minütigen traditionellen Katamaranfahrt. Das Gebiet hat viele Arten von Wasser- und Pflanzenwelt. Möglicherweise können Sie während des Gleitens ein gelegentliches Krokodil oder einen Wassermonitor sehen. Eine weitere mögliche Sichtung sind Kormorane und andere Wasservögel. Nachdem Sie Ihre Zeit mit der Natur genossen haben, werden Sie auf einer Bank neben einigen Reisfeldern deponiert. Diese saisonalen Reiskulturen, auch Chena-Anbau genannt, sind abhängig von den beiden großen Monsunregenperioden, die den Winter in Sri Lanka ersetzen. Bei einem Spaziergang durch die Felder können Sie den Reisanbau hautnah erleben. Diese kurze Tour dauert 15 Minuten und Ihr Reiseleiter wird Sie mit weiteren Informationen über die lokalen Methoden des Reisanbaus auf den neuesten Stand bringen. Anschließend kehren Sie in das Dorf zurück und lernen einen Einheimischen kennen, der Ihnen eine halbstündige Kochvorführung zur traditionellen Küche Sri Lankas gibt. Bei der Vorführung können Sie auch selbst versuchen, ein Gericht aus Sri Lanka zuzubereiten. Sie werden gleich um 12:15 Uhr zu Mittag essen. Das Mittagessen besteht aus einem Buffet mit perfekt gekochtem Reis, 6 traditionell gekochten srilankischen Currys und frischem gebratenem Fisch. Sie werden auch einen grünen Salat und knusprigen Papadum haben, praktisch eine wesentliche Ergänzung für Mahlzeiten in den meisten srilankischen und indischen Häusern. Sie essen auf geflochtenen Tabletts mit sauberen Lotusblättern. Ihr Essen, das auf traditionelle Weise gekocht wird, in Tontöpfen über Holzfeuern. Nach dem etwas entspannten Essen können Sie sich in aller Ruhe im Dorf aufhalten. Ihr Reiseleiter beendet Ihre Tour um 13.30 Uhr.

Not worth it. Our tour was over in just 1.5 hr rather than the 3 hr being stated on the description. There was no local guide, you're told what you're doing very briefly and then off you go as a conveyor belt of short activities with no guide or explanation, at the end of each one you're ask for money. 10 minutes on the oxen cart, then you go on a tractor for another 10 minutes, then you walk towards the catamaran for a 15 minutes ride in the middle of the lake and back. No explanation whatsoever. Then you follow a guy in a scooter and walk back on the same path and you're told which house you need to go to...not quite a village. The lady was sweet and explained the process to make rice flour, we watched her fry the fish and we ate. Done. Then tuk tuk ride back. Nothing like as described. Disappointing.
Ww paid way too much for this tour. 25USD per head. Should have been only half price for what it offered. The whole experience was not authentic. We live in Asia so we know how these tours should be like. We were basically just put on different stations of activities one by one with almost no explanations at all. We were totally exposed in the sun for ages just for the boat men to arrange the water lilies but wouldn’t it be better off for them to teach the guests how to do it? The food was fine though but if you want an authentic local experience, avoid this so you don’t leave with a bad after taste!
Thank you for sharing your honest feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the experience did not meet your expectations and that you felt the tour lacked authenticity and sufficient explanation. We appreciate your comments regarding the activity arrangements, time spent in the sun, and the overall value of the tour. We’ll share this feedback with our team to help us improve the experience and provide more meaningful interaction with our guests. We’re glad you enjoyed the food, and we sincerely regret that the overall experience left you disappointed. Thank you again for helping us identify areas where we can do better.
It was ok overall. We were expecting a guide to tell us about the village life, but that wasn’t included. Just an ox ride, a very slow tractor ride. The catamaran boat ride was lovely. And then a very brief food demonstration, but we mostly just sat around until lunch was ready. We didn’t really get to see “the village”
Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the catamaran ride, but we're sorry the experience didn't meet your expectations. We appreciate your comments about the village tour and activities, and we'll use your feedback to improve the experience for future guests. We hope to welcome you again for a more enjoyable visit.
Absolutely loved my tour, from pick up to the office for quick brief intro then you are on your way. Great communication, plenty of flavour for the home cooking and not to mention the beautiful lake on a catamaran with the tour guide making gorgeous flower arrangements. Totally recommend.
I would avoid booking on this platform altogether, book local or use get your guide. They were 20 minutes late to pick us up, tips were DEMANDED despite the tour price of 25 USD each. We waited another 15 minutes for the tractor to arrive and then after food another 20 minutes for the tuk tuk back to the city. The tour ended an hour and a half early if you count from when food was finished. An hour early from when we were dropped off. So about 45 minutes stood around waiting, and an hour early which means this 3 hour tour is just over 1 hour long. The food was nice, and the lady who cooked it sweet which is why I have given 2 stars not 1
Unfortunately, we didn't like the ox carriage ride so much, the animals are really not doing well there. We wouldn't have needed the tractor ride either. You go through several stations and everyone asks for tips from you, so you end up getting rid of a lot of money. We really liked the boat ride, the man was very friendly and we got beautiful flowers, we also liked the small cooking class very much. You could just shorten the tour a bit and then offer it correspondingly cheaper. Overall nice, but not worth 45 euros.
(J36766U03) Thank you for your honest feedback 😊 We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the boat trip and the cooking class, and that our team made those parts special for you. We’re sorry to hear that some parts of the experience did not meet your expectations, particularly the oxcart and tractor rides, as well as the overall value. Your comments are very important and will be shared with our team to help improve the experience and pricing clarity in the future. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts. 🌿
Trip starts with an ox-chart. Then tuk-tuk. When you reach the lake o boat is waiting for a a lake tour. The boatman prepares a hat form the lotus leaves and a necklace from lotus flowers. Then walking to the village where they prepare local food. You can join if you like. After preparing the local food with the help of the local woman you can eat the delicious food. Good experience especially for those who haven’t been to a village.
Very pleasant surprise! Got to ride on the back of a cow driven cart, tuk tuk, and a rowed catamaran - seeing animals and nature. It's a fun little stop along the way, and would definitely recommend.

This was a fabulous unexpected highlight of our time in Sigiriya. The staff were so fun and we had a delicious lunch cooked in a traditional kitchen using intuitive and basic utensils. The staff had pride in their traditional Sri Lankan village culture and were proud to show it. It was very fun.

Right from the hotel pickup to the amazing bullock cart ride through the rustic roads of Sigiriya village , a breathtaking view of the lake and in it a memorable Cataman ride , everything was beyond perfection. Then we arrived in the local villagers house where we were greeted with drum beats and had the experience of cooking and learning what srilankan cuisine is . We were served with love and had the most amazing start and end of our trip! Worth visiting again
