Description

This app-led scavenger hunt takes you through Kandy on foot, using phone-based riddles to guide you from one landmark to the next. No guide, no fixed start time. • Find the Temple of the Tooth, St. Paul's Church, and the Kataragama Devalaya — Buddhism, colonial heritage, and Hindu devotion sharing the same hillside • Move through Kandy at a pace that lets you take it all in • Perfect for families, couples, pilgrims, and curious travellers Available in 24 languages including English, French, German, Spanish, Italian — see the full list when booking and choose yours when you start the game in the app. Around 2 hours - any group size. Three faiths, one city, more history than an afternoon can hold — start early.
