Anuradhapura Heritage Mountain bike / bicycle Tour

This heritage mountain bike tour in Anuradhapura was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Sri Lanka 🚴‍♀️🌿. Exploring such an ancient and vast site by bike is the perfect way to do it: it allows you to cover a lot of ground while still feeling completely immersed in the surroundings, far more engaging than travelling by car or tuk-tuk. The bikes were comfortable and well maintained, and the pace of the tour was relaxed and enjoyable. Our guide was absolutely fantastic: extremely knowledgeable, kind, and passionate about the history and culture of Anuradhapura. His explanations about Buddhism, the ancient kingdoms, and the significance of each site really brought the place to life and made the experience both educational and inspiring. We cycled through some of the most important monuments, stunning stupas, sacred temples and peaceful natural landscapes, often stopping to admire details you might otherwise miss. Being surrounded by nature, history and silence made the whole experience feel very special and authentic. Everything was well organised, from start to finish, and the tour offered a beautiful balance between history, culture and outdoor activity. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Anuradhapura — it’s a memorable, meaningful and unique way to experience one of Sri Lanka’s most important heritage sites

Great tour and highly recommended! Beautiful stories behind all the things you see. Very welcoming and warm

English review also below! This was the most amazing bike ride in Anuradhapura. Saranga is a fantastic guide who not only guides you through all the world heritage sites, but also makes sure the route goes through the beautiful countryside. For me it was the perfect balance between cycling, stopping and interesting information. And all that with a delicious local lunch. Saranga has the heart in the right place; he is not only a great guide, but also a wonderful person. English: This was the most amazing bike tour in Anuradhapura.

MUST DO in anuradhapura. This trip was amazing. Mountainbiking between tempels and sightseeing in between was wonderfull. Maybe ask about his life story, it will give you a perspective of what’s most important in life!😉

Saranga is a friendly and knowledgeable guide showing you the must see places and more. The small group makes for a great tour. Together with the lunch at a local place completes the experience.

The highlight of our trip so far. This was a fantastic bike tour of Anuradhapura. Saranga was very informative not only of the site but also the meaning of Buddhism. Rounded off with a great lunch cooked by local village women.

Excellent morning's cycle ride with relevant and intelligent guidance by Saranga and great fun. He speaks very good English and has a great sense of humour. Bike and helmet was in good condition and he looked after us really well throughout the ride and whilst touring the temples and other sights of Anuradhapura. Highly recommend Saranga, his company & the experience .

Trip was organized well and everything went according to plan. Saranga is a great guide and he was able to answer all of our questions. I recommend afternoon slot as it's not that hot and you can see the temple after sunset.

What a truly wonderful day we had! It was without a doubt one of the most beautiful days of our holiday. After two and a half weeks of traveling through Sri Lanka, my husband was feeling a bit temple-weary. I am so happy that I found this tour on TripAdvisor. I honestly didn’t know what to expect from Anuradhapura, as we had already seen so many beautiful places, but the cycling tour with Saranga exceeded all my expectations. Saranga brought Buddhism to life in such a meaningful and inspiring way. And cycling through such a stunning and peaceful landscape was simply amazing. I feel deeply grateful for everything this day gave us. Saranga is a truly wonderful person. Thank you for everything — I would recommend this beautiful experience to everyone!

Saranga leads with passion, a lot of knowledge and especially with an open heart through the history and sights of Anuradhapura. For us, the bike tour was a wonderful and unique experience. We were particularly touched by the break at a really local and simple food stand far away from the hustle and bustle and the visit to the white stupa and the Bodhi tree. One of the best tours I've ever experienced.
