    Stop at: Galle Dutch Fort

    The Galle Dutch Fort, also known as the Galle Fort or Galle Fortifications, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in the coastal city of Galle, in the southern part of Sri Lanka. The fort was built by the Portuguese in the 16th century and later expanded and fortified by the Dutch during their colonial rule in the 17th century. Visitors can explore the well-preserved fortifications, walk along the ramparts, and admire the Dutch colonial architecture. Inside the fort, you'll find charming narrow streets with colonial-era buildings, boutique shops, cafes, and art galleries. Key attractions within the fort include the Galle Lighthouse, Dutch Reformed Church, and the Galle Fort Clock Tower.

    Madu River Safari:

    After visiting the Galle Dutch Fort, the tour typically proceeds to the Madu River, which is situated a short drive away. The Madu River is a picturesque estuary with mangrove forests and diverse flora and fauna. It's a haven for nature lovers and birdwatchers. Tourists embark on a boat safari along the river, guided by experienced boatmen who navigate through the waterways. During the safari, you can spot various bird species, including kingfishers and herons, and maybe even crocodiles and water monitor lizards. You'll also have the opportunity to visit small islands along the river, each with unique attractions. For example, you might visit a cinnamon island to learn about the spice production process or a small temple on an islet. The Madu River Safari is known for its tranquility and scenic beauty. It's a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of urban life. The boat ride takes you through lush mangrove forests, which provide a serene backdrop for your journey.

    Overall, a Galle Dutch Fort & Madu River Safari Tour offers a combination of cultural exploration and natural beauty. It's a well-rounded experience that allows you to appreciate both the historical significance of the Galle Dutch Fort and the pristine natural environment of the Madu River estuary. This tour is a favorite among tourists visiting the southern region of Sri Lanka.
