To explore the resort more closely, we recommend taking a sightseeing tour of Kalutara. These tours in Kalutara typically include visits to the Kalutara Vihara Buddhist temple, the sacred Bo tree, and the impressive 38-meter-long bridge spanning the Kalu Ganga river.
If you're interested in a broader experience, consider a bus tour of Kalutara that covers the surrounding areas. These tours can take you to various fascinating destinations, such as the ancient ruins of Anuradhapura, the modern city of Kandy renowned for its Ceylon tea, or the serene royal botanical gardens. Alternatively, you can opt for a water excursion along the river or a thrilling tuk-tuk ride to a waterfall. The cost of the latter excursion in Kalutara typically ranges from 10 to 20 USD.
For Russian-speaking tourists, there are organized excursions to the Island of Hermits, a significant pilgrimage site, and guided trips to the Pinavelle Elephant Sanctuary in Kandy, led by Russian guides in Kalutara.
