Village Experience near Kandy

STARTING POINT: KANDY

We promote unique itineraries of community and sustainable tourism in Sri Lanka. From 2010 we are involved in the support and promotion of these itineraries, developed in the framework of international development projects.

The main objective of these projects was the fight against poverty through the creation of organic home gardens, spice processing unit, conversion from chemical production to eco-friendly production of paddy and the creation of Agro and Community tourism, with the direct participation of community village guides.
