Itinerario
Complete su tour de un día en Galle con una visita para ver a los increíbles pescadores de zancos en Weligama. Los pescadores se sientan en una barra transversal atada a un palo vertical que se planta en el arrecife de coral y el zanco con una mano mientras está sentado y realiza la pesca con caña y línea con la otra mano. La práctica de la pesca con zancos comenzó aproximadamente 50 años después del final de la Segunda Guerra Mundial cuando los pescadores descubrieron que la pesca en las rocas que sobresalen del mar no era suficiente para atrapar peces en grandes cantidades, por lo que comenzaron a plantar tubos de metal desechados en el arrecife Y usándolos para apoyarse y pescar. Con el tiempo, los pescadores descubrieron que la madera funcionaba tan bien como desarrolló los polos en las versiones más modernas que vemos hoy. Es un espectáculo único que no debe perderse mientras observamos y nos maravillamos ante la destreza del hombre para superar cualquier obstáculo.
bajé hacia el verdadero destino de tu viaje de un día: Jungle Beach. No hay otra persona a la vista, solo dos tramos de arena desierta atrapados entre el océano y la roca Rumassala. Habiendo experimentado la aplastante alma de Unawatuna, esta playa era exactamente lo que necesitábamos. Paz, soledad y naturaleza preciosa.
Galle Dutch Fort - Después de aprender sobre la determinación de la gente a través del arte que se muestra en el Museo de Fotografía Tsunami, pasemos ahora al Galle Dutch Fort. Con una historia tumultuosa que se remonta a varios siglos, la ubicación estratégica de la ciudad lo convirtió en un centro de comercio por mar y, posteriormente, un punto de aterrizaje para los gobernantes coloniales de la isla. Se construyó un fuerte para garantizar la protección y preservación de la ciudad de los portugueses a principios del siglo XVI y luego fortificada por los holandeses durante el siglo XVII. Originalmente, el fuerte era una estructura de tierra con empalizadas, una muralla y tres bastiones y un foso que lo rodeaba. Bajo el control de los holandeses, construyeron fortificaciones inexpugnables con corales y piedras de granito, y el Fuerte se parecía a una pequeña ciudad amurallada con una cuadrícula rectangular de calles llenas de casas bajas con aguilones y verandas.

Tsunami Photo Museum: su próxima parada será en el Tsunami Photo Museum, ubicado en Talwatte. Después del devastador Tsunami de 2004, que golpeó a Sri Lanka junto con muchos otros países, el proceso de recuperación ha sido lento, a la vez que arduo. Las áreas costeras fueron las más afectadas y el re-desarrollo aún continúa con la rehabilitación física y psicosocial como una de las áreas más importantes. Para facilitar el proceso, de modo que las personas puedan hablar y articular sobre los horrores del Tsunami, así como para proporcionar un lugar donde la belleza y el arte todavía abunden, se estableció el Museo de Fotografía de Tsunami. Es un museo completamente caritativo que ofrece entrada gratuita y tiene dibujos, pinturas, fotografías (arte en todo su esplendor) para contar una historia de cada persona que vivió el Tsunami de 2004.
Jardín de hierbas de especias
Turtle Hatchery - Su viaje de un día a Galle comienza con una visita a Turtle Hatchery. Sri Lanka es el hogar de muchas criaturas de vida silvestre diferentes, incluyendo la vida marina y de las siete especies de tortugas marinas en el mundo; Cinco de ellos se dirigen a Sri Lanka para anidar durante todo el año. Las cinco especies de tortugas marinas que anidan en Sri Lanka incluyen la tortuga verde, la baula y la carey, la tortuga boba y la tortuga lora. Establecidos para proteger de la extinción a las tortugas que anidan en las playas de Sri Lanka, los criaderos de tortugas marinas son operados por la Sociedad de Protección de Vida Silvestre de Sri Lanka y dependen de voluntarios para ayudarlos en su proyecto de conservación. Puedes ayudar a liberar a las tortugas de vuelta al mar y descubrir cómo podemos ayudar a estas especies en peligro de extinción a vivir un poco más.

Deshan was a wonderful tour guide, and showed me all around Galle and the surrounding areas. We were able to visit a number of places including some local beaches, the Galle Fort, a beautiful jewelry store, and a turtle hatchery. Everything was made so convenient and easy, and Deshan went above and beyond to ensure I had an enjoyable and fun day. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone wishing to maximize their time in Galle.

We chose a one-day Galle trip from Colombo with Lanka Tours, hosted by Deshan, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our Sri Lanka journey. From the very beginning, the company was quick to respond to all our booking queries, and their team was extremely helpful throughout the website booking process. Deshan, however, truly made the experience exceptional. He was hands down the best host we had during our trip—going above and beyond to ensure all our needs were met. He made sure we covered every major attraction and even included a few special stops outside the planned itinerary. His charm and popularity were evident everywhere we went, and the warm hospitality we received at each location was remarkable, especially during the delicious Sri Lankan lunch at Hotel Refresh. I highly recommend the Galle tour with Lanka Tours. Their itinerary is thoughtfully planned to cover all the key spots, and having such a wonderful host makes the experience even more memorable. When I return to Sri Lanka, I will definitely book more tours with them—they’ve left us with lasting impressions and beautiful memories.

I had a pleasant experience. The pickup was on time and Mr.Deshan was kind and patient. Some places were not included and we skipped Gem factory. Be prepared for scorching heat. Food was very bad in quality and taste.
Thank you very much for sharing your feedback and for highlighting the positive aspects of your experience. We are pleased to hear that the pickup was on time and that Mr. Deshan provided kind and patient service. Concerning the food, we sincerely apologize that it did not meet your expectations. We have been working with this seafood restaurant since 2006, and this is the first negative comment we have received about food quality and taste. After lunch, our team checked with you about the meal, and at that time no issues were raised. As food quality is very important to us, we would highly appreciate it if you could share more details about what specifically was unsatisfactory, so we can review this matter with the restaurant and improve our service. Once again, we apologize for the inconvenience and truly appreciate your feedback, as it helps us maintain and enhance the quality of our tours.

I joined a one-day tour to Galle and it was a wonderful experience. We saw the stilt fishermen, explored Galle’s Dutch Fort, had a lovely lunch on the beach, visited a gem factory, a spice and herb garden, and even stopped by a turtle conservation site. The whole day felt very chill and pleasant. My driver, Deshan, spoke excellent English, shared great stories, and was really funny — he made the trip even more enjoyable. A memorable and relaxing day out!

Had a great day out with Chamika. So many experiences packed in to one day - beautiful beaches, historic sites and a really interesting insight into Ayurvedic herbs and their uses. The ride was comfortable and cool and the lunch we chose (rice and curry set) was authentic and served while the waves lapped only meters away. Highly recommend this one day tour with Chamika.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m really glad you enjoyed the variety of experiences and had a memorable day. It was a pleasure showing you around, and I’m happy you loved the authentic Sri Lankan lunch by the beach. Hope to see you again on another adventure soon.
Desham our tour guide was amazing. My wife got ill during the tour and he adjusted the trip to accomodate and really looked after her - Thank you This trip is a must do - Galle and surrounding area so beautiful and interesting. Loved the day Thank you Ask for Desham you will not be disappointed
After completing a 7-day tour of Sri Lanka, we booked a day tour from Colombo to Galle, as this part of the country was not on our tour itinerary. Pick up at our hotel was seamless. We are so glad that we visited this part of the country. The day was jam-packed with highlights, and our driver/guide Deshan was excellent. He was knowledgeable and friendly and adjusted the tour to suit our needs. He provided some fantastic suggestions for other stops. The Dutch Fort was much bigger than I expected and fascinating to explore. The gem museum was very informative. The staff there were not all about just trying to make a sale. The tsunami museum was somber, and the turtle hatchery was brilliant. It was a great final day in Sri Lanka
Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience with us! We’re thrilled that you chose us for your day tour to Galle and that it became such a memorable finale to your Sri Lanka trip. It’s great to hear that Deshan provided exceptional service, tailoring the tour to your needs and offering fantastic suggestions along the way. We’re glad you enjoyed exploring full day tour Galle. We hope to welcome you back to Sri Lanka for more adventures in the future!
