I take particular pride in tailoring my tours to suit the individual requirements and timetables of my clients. So whether your inclination is walking, trekking, climbing, camping, fishing, elephant watching, ornithology or strolls around our local markets, allow me to be your personal guide. KNUCKLES Adventure Tours are famous throughout Sri Lanka and my fleet of off-road vehicles will take you o
n safari to places other tours are unable to access. I can introduce you to our aboriginal people, the Vedda, explain a little about their culture and show you around their villages. There are archaeological remains throughout the island from handprints left by our paleolithic ancestors to our world famous abandoned cities and ancient temples. Perhaps you’d like to delve a little deeper into our more recent religious and cultural traditions. I can show you some of our most significant shrines and introduce you to highly respected teachers. Sri Lanka is exceptionally rich in flora and fauna with amphibians, reptiles and mammals including sea turtles, porcupines, sambar, crocodiles, lemurs, monkeys, apes and more. On my tours, you’ll see wild elephant, buffalo, maybe the elusive sloth bear or even the secretive Sri Lankan leopard. I know the best places to find these creatures in their natural habitat, and the time of day or night when they are most likely to be visible. If markets are your thing I will take you to towns where the local produce is abundant and I’ll be happy to advise you on your purchases. You might like to try some of our many wild fruits, or to know something about our indigenous herbs and their medical uses, or the benefits of Ayurveda. I can show you the delicacies we use to control diabetes, combat dehydration or fatigue and, in case you haven’t plucked up the courage to ask, teach you how to open and drink from the young coconut and scrape out its delicious cream! My prices start from as little as $60 per person per day, depending on the numbers booking,
So whether you’d prefer a one-to-one experience or to travel as part of a larger group, I can make the appropriate arrangements on your behalf.
