Head out to the scenic city of Kandy, heading to the UNESCO Temple of the Tooth and Royal Palace where you will enjoy a guided tour and walk by Kandy Lake. You will then return to Rosyth to relax and perhaps enjoy a cooking class. Or perhaps you’d prefer a street food tour. Let us know your interests and we can choose tours that you will love.
