Excellent tour of Temple Of Tooth, Sri Lanka - Tour was great and Sampath our tour guide was excellent. We were updated by Lakpura (tour co.) who our driver, guide and times would be. Another excellent and smooth running tour with lovely drivers and guides by Lakpura. Highly recommend!

This is a amazing place to relaxing your miend. - The temple of the sacred tooth relic is world famous place of worship. It is in Kandy, Sri Lanka.there is a tooth of lord Buddha.this most sacred temple is visited daily by thousands of local and foreign devotees and tourists.

kandy temple - its a way to visit this temple for Buddhist or non Buddhist people who likes to be in Kandy in srilanka, so its so beauty full place and Kandy town and lake its feeling so nice to spend few times,

Go early and avoid holy days - Buddha’s tooth was apparently snatched from his funeral pyre and smuggled in to Sri Lanka by a princess and here it is kept in a casket and is considered very holy. People come to make offerings and hope their prayers are answered. Beautiful flowers are sold at many stalls outside. One must not take photos of anyone in front of the buddhas. There is a memorial to a faithful elephant and people can light incense sticks for loved ones. Most people wear white. All must show respect by covering legs and shoulders. Shoes are not worn in the whole complex. 200 rupees to have them looked after. Go early and avoid holy days.

Deep in to budhism.... - We were here in a private tour, all info about budism(theory and practice) were well received, we spotted the people doing prayers&ofrandes, learned not to do pictures to people/tourists in front of budha(!).We saw the famous sacred elephant(mummified).After all a religious experience for the non budhist.

Kandy .. A must too destination - I am sure it is amazing however having already done Siem Reap etc etc Just about templed out.. The roof however when it shone across the lake was stunning but was shadowed in our opinion by the turtles, Huge Bats, Monitors, Cranes, Egrets Monkeys and Kingfishers in the most amazing TREES surrounding the lake which you can walk around for free... just saying that's all... definitely go here if you can :)

Temple of the tooth relic Kandy - This is a very holy place for Buddhists hence it is a must visit for religious reasons, however as a tourist you may not find it worth the money as the temple and important items in the temple are closed and open only for certain intervals of time. When we went around noon everything was closed and we saw scores of pilgrims waiting for the temple to open . As a keen tourist I had nothing much to see except for the external temple building. Additionally the walk from the ticket counter is a short walk however in the scorching sun you may burn your foot as you have to remove your foot wear before entering the temple premises. If you don’t know the correct time when the temple is open then you may want to rethink before going in.

Not worth joining at ceremonies - Not worse attending a ceremony. People are pushing and there's nothing to see but tons of people. Unfortunately i was here during Sri Lankan holiday which probably didn't make it lees crowdy. The rip you off because you are a foreginer.

Cancélled by the organisation due to too much attendance - We could not make the visit as the guide asked for cancellation due a too big attendance, despite our confirmed tickets, paid in advance. I am waiting for the reimbursment

Never received tickets - Tickets never advised. We were told a refund would occur. We are still waiting for a refund and have had no further contact.
