Good garden tours in Sri Lanka fill up weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 4 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Tour Ella’s largest spice garden, cook seven Sri Lankan dishes over a traditional fireplace, then enjoy your meal on banana leaves.
“Very nice spice gardeb tour and interactive cooking workshop.”
Learn Sri Lankan rice and curry at a small Sigiriya cooking class, pick garden produce, cook with a local host, and eat your results.
“It is a very nice experience to cook with a local who knows Sri-Lankan cooking, especially when you like the food. It's a great traditional kitchen and everything is clean and wel prepared. The tour through the garden is a bit thin since the garden was not really wel kept jet. I would absolutely recommend the course although its a bit expensive.”
See elephants bathe and play at Pinnawala, with Colombo pickup, transport, entry, snacks, and optional spice garden stop.

Cruise Sri Lanka’s Madu River through mangroves, spot crocodiles, visit a cinnamon island and temple, and enjoy a relaxed 1 to 2 hour boat tour.
“We had the boat to ourselves and our young guide was so great at spotting things of interest in the undergrowth. It was relaxing and fascinating all at once! As it was just us we picked the stops we wanted and not those we didn't! He found jellyfish, baby alligators and huge lizard. We visited a cinnamon island and saw lots of different plants and enjoyed the breeze of the river boat at speed!”
Pick a kind of garden, or a city to see one in.
