Your experience starts with comfortable transport from the Galle Fort area to our village home (approximately 6km away). Upon arrival, prepare for a magnificent, multi-course Local Feast—a spread of traditional Sri Lankan curries, rice, sambols, and accompaniments, all cooked from scratch using family recipes. To complete the local experience, your meal is paired with a refreshing beverage: a local Beer or a taste of authentic Sri Lankan Arrack (a distilled spirit), alongside unlimited purified Water.
