From Kandy: Kithulgala Guided WaterRafting Day Tours

3.Kithulgala Guided WaterRafting Day Tours

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 7 reviews · 1 day · from $20

Review of Kandy’s Kitulgala rafting day tour, with tea, temples, Ayurveda, private transport, costs, itinerary, and practical booking advice.

“I had a great day with my guide, Ramazan. He is talkative, helpful, and a very good driver. Just a reminder: this tour is a private tour, which I didn’t notice when I booked, so the activity cost me more than expected. I chose canyoning instead of rafting (the same price but much more challenging for me), and I had a lot of fun. The tea and Ayurvedic places were also great. Thanks, Ramazan 🙏🏼”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 5 reviews · from $174

Review of Kandy’s Kelani River rafting day trip, with rapids, tea tasting, lunch, safety advice, pricing, and practical booking tips.

“Our driver and tour guide Sara was excellent. He spoke good English and our communication was good and clear even from the day before for confirmation. He made sure we had cold beers, excellent food with a spectacular view. The river rafting was great fun and not too challenging. The guide was great. We recommend this experience. We also went to a lovely tea factory with generous tea tasting and delicious iced Macha. Thank you Sara for your excellent Sri Lankan kindness and hospitality.”

7.White Water Rafting in Kitulgala

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 4 reviews · 2 hours · from $24

Ride nine rapids on Sri Lanka’s Kelani River in Kitulgala, with safety gear, friendly guides, swimming time, and flexible booking for $24.

“Despite booking early in the morning on the same day, they quickly coordinated everything and responded promptly to my questions via WhatsApp. I really appreciated that they accepted my solo booking for white-water rafting. It was my first time rafting in Sri Lanka, but they gave clear instructions at the beginning, and the rapids were thrilling and incredibly fun. I wore a swimsuit, so getting completely soaked only added to the enjoyment. I was also happy they took photos for me with my phone during the trip. At the swimming area, we had time to float and relax under the beautiful weather. The staff even picked some seasonal fruits from…”
