Galle is the heart of the south coast. It is most famous for mastery in local seafood fresh from the morning catch, warm hospitality and of course, the iconic Dutch Fort which hides within its walls a colourful subculture of its own. This is the essence of Galle and you can experience it too.
Join one of our friends from Galle, to walk you through the local market to purchase vegetables and fish fresh off the nets which his wife will then teach you to cook with the culinary secrets of the South. After a scrumptious lunch, at your own pace, you can explore the Fort where the cobbled roads and unique architecture with the mustard walls will transport you to another era.
You can also spend a morning cycling through the villages, taking in the beauty of the checked paddy fields and trickling streams. There’s also a chance to try your hand at whipping up some “hoppers” (local tea time, pancake like snack)!
You can include this experience as part of an Experience Travel Group holiday designed exclusively with you.

Customer Feedback
This was an excellently organised, tailor-made trip. We stayed in friendly hotels in a number of different locations, including a mud house in the jungle, beside a lake and in the hills among the tea plantations. We had a wonderful guide/driver and visited some amazing temples, spectacular world heritage sites, lovely villages and ate delicious, freshly harvested and cooked local food. It was a fabulous holiday!
