ROCS Bespoke Journeys 9 Day Sri Lanka Tour v2

Here prepare for a soothing, yet exciting moment close to the nature and community as you head on a village experience tour.

Commence a trek, or travel in a small local tractor on the village path that falls through cultivation land and jungle patches to reach a cave temple.

Here you will be welcomed by a monk and will engage in a conversation with you with the help of your guide. Then a session of “pirith” chanting and tying a “pirith” thread around your wrist invoking blessings and protection upon you. From here head down to the shore and board the catamaran for your ride across the lake. As you travel across, hear the songs of nature sung for you by the wind blowing. Arrive at the other side and walk to the village house where your will be warmly greeted by a villager. Witness a chena cultivation and see some of the traditional methods of agriculture. Now begins an exciting moment as a village folk conducts a cookery demonstration especially for you. Learn how some of the local cuisines are made, how the produce is prepared and the spices are mixed and matched to achieve that perfect balance of flavour. You are encouraged to take part in this session and expand your culinary skills. The time you were waiting for, a delicious local rice and curry lunch will be presented for you to enjoy in the authentic way. Combine the different curries and savour with the rice and eat to your hearts content. After a seasonal fruit will be served for you as dessert.
