The fort area of Galle is lovely. You get to walk the fort wall, then explore the streets and shops in complete safety. Would highly recommend if you hotel is within an hour of Galle.

The Unesco heritage sight of the Dutch fort and other places in the same vicinity were very enjoyable to view. The sites on the way was a nice watch from the car. Really nice meal and good driver and guide Chinthaka.
