Kandy City Day Tour met een geverifieerde gids
Beschrijving
Hier bieden we u een geverifieerde gids aan. Zodat hij je alles zal uitleggen wat je wilt. Kandy is een van de meest schilderachtige steden in Sri Lanka en ligt te midden van heuvels. Het is de hoofdstad van de Centrale Provincie. Het is zowel een administratieve als religieuze stad. Kandy is de op een na grootste stad van het land en wordt vaak bezocht door boeddhisten, vooral van de Theravada-school. Kandy is erg beroemd onder toeristen om drie belangrijke redenen: het is de thuisbasis van het heilige tandrelikwie van de Boeddha (tempel van de heilige tand; Dalada Maligawa), de botanische tuinen (gelegen in Peradeniya) en het heeft altijd een speciale plaats wanneer het gaat om festiviteiten zoals de Esala Perahara.

De botanische tuinen in Kandy staan bekend om hun prachtige bloemen en bomen; orchideeën in het bijzonder. De naam Royal komt binnen omdat ze ooit alleen openstonden voor de Kandyan royalty. Met 60 hectare land, met een oppervlakte van 2500 vierkante voet, is dit de grootste en meest indrukwekkende botanische tuinen van Sri Lanka.
Dit is een kunstmatig meer in het hart van de heuvelstad Kandy, naast de Tempel van de Tand. In de loop der jaren werd het kleiner. Het is een beschermd meer, met vissen verboden
Sri Dalada Maligawa of de Tempel van de Sacred Tooth Relic is een boeddhistische tempel in de stad Kandy, Sri Lanka. Het bevindt zich in het koninklijke paleiscomplex van het voormalige koninkrijk Kandy, waar het relikwie van de tand van de Boeddha is gevestigd.
Kandy, de culturele stad van Sri Lanka, bekend om zijn natuurlijke schoonheid en traditionele manieren, Kandy zal zeker een van de beste hoogtepunten van Sri Lanka zijn. Volg een sightseeingtour door de prachtige stad Kandy en gun jezelf een geweldig uitzicht op het hart van Kandy.
Een plek om te leren over de geschiedenis van thee in Sri Lanka. Het totale proces van het maken van thee wordt uitgelegd met demostraties.
Dit massieve witte Boeddhabeeld is een traktatie voor de ogen van het Kandy-meer tijdens zonsondergang. Het beeld verschijnt in verschillende kleuren als de zon ondergaat. Deze staute is overal zichtbaar in Kandy en het uitzicht vanaf de top, vooral na zonsondergang, is te goed. Dit is een must in Kandy.
De Kandyan, of uptarata (udarata natum), dansen, worden beschouwd als de klassieke danstraditie van Sri Lanka. Kandyan-dansers worden traditioneel alleen uitgevoerd door mannelijke dansers. De techniek, deels afgeleid van Zuid-India, richt zich op dynamiek, krachtig voetenwerk, sprongen en wervelingen

I had the most amazing tour ever with Nadith! I’ve traveled many places and had many tour guides and never had one as knowledgeable and organized as him. The tour around Kandy was perfectly timed to see all the best sights, and he was able to explain so many interesting things about Sri Lankan and Buddhist history. Must do this tour!!!!
We went on the tour with Nadith who grew up in Kandy and had been living there since. He has lot of knowledge bout the city and also about buddhism which is an important part of Kandy and Sri Lanka. It was a very nice tour despite maybe a bit too much for one day. But we knew that there would be 10 stops at first. For people on a low budget the tour would sound great for 1500 rupees per person but take into consideration that there will be fees for entry at nearly every stop like the botanical garden, dance show etc. Maybe asking that in advance to avoid unwanted costs. Overall we enjoyed the trip but maybe wouldve done it splitted onto 2 days to be a bit more relaxing. Bur Nadith gave us the time we needed, not rushing anything.
My guide, Nadith, was very knowledgable. Gave great information and tidbits about each place and Sri Lanka as a whole. Hd was extremely flexible with the plans and when finding out my interests or preferences he made sure to find activities similar or with those in mind. Definitely recommend as you can see pretty much everything in a day. Normally it's a 10-12 hour tour so well worth the money!
We are so overly grateful that we crossed paths with Nadith on our Sri Lankan trip. We had him originally just as a driver from A to B, but then discovered how knowledgeable and kind he was, that we had him as a guide for the following two days! We are never into ‘guided tours’ but this was so casual yet informative it was brilliant. He went above and beyond to share so much culture and history with us — his knowledge is incredibly rich and deep and he knows his way around so well. We did the Kandy tour with him, which allowed us to really enjoy the busy city. We talked to other travellers who didn’t like the place, so we thoroughly believe it was Nadith who allowed us to really enjoy being there. He went really above and beyond and gave so much of his time, we never felt rushed and he altered everything to suit what we wanted to do, nothing was too much hassle at all. We also did Kandy to Nuwara Eliya with him, which was a brilliant suggestion to see some sights along the journey and then catch the train from there to Ella instead of doing the whole train journey. Which we wouldn’t have even considered before, yet worked out perfectly as we didn’t have train tickets so just did the smaller and most beautiful section. He made us feel so well taken care of, allowed us to relax in the craze of Sri Lanka knowing we were taken care of and was such a genuinely great person!! We would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone visiting Sri Lanka and the central area. We are so so so grateful that we crossed paths!!! Thanking you always Nadith!!
I would like to begin by saying I had a great time in Kandy Sri Lanka. It was my friend and I first time visit there. We met Nadith, a professional tour operator who show us around places like Sri Maha Bodhi temple, the royal botanic gardens, the tea factory and the kandian cultural show at the kandyan art association hall. Nadith did a good job explaining in details and showing us around the different locations. Although our time was short I would recommend Nadith to my family and friends, he has done and outstanding job touring us around.
Our driver Nadith was amazing! He drove us around Kandy all day and he showed us all the main attractions! He speaks english very well, so we didn’t have any troubles understanding him. He stopped whenever we liked and gave us time to explore on our own. He is an amazing person!
This trip was totally amazing. The guides were awesome. They paid such a good attention and made sure we were taken care of. Prices for the pacakges also reasonable. Thank you very much for making our journey so memorable!!!
I booked this tour from Ireland with a few other friends. It can be highly recommended since it was a well-organized and worthy tour that covers all most all the important places around Kandy such as Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic, Royal Botanical Gardens, Kandy lake, etc. This tour was highly educational as they explained about Sri Lankan history, prestigious places in a UNESCO World Heritage city. Nevertheless, we had fun and ultimately enjoyed this tour. Also, these tour guides were helpful and friendly. It's a place you should visit.
