Sigiriya is located in the Dry Zone, which experiences warm and dry weather with moderate rainfall. The region’s climate varies between 22 degrees Centigrade and 33 degrees Centigrade. However, a slight drop in temperatures in the evenings makes it pleasant enough for al fresco dining or for strolling in the vicinity. The rainfall in Sigiriya is moderate and seasonal, but the sun never fails to shine through! Rain is most frequent in the months between October and January. The year-round largely warm and humid weather calls for light cottons and linen apparel. The Dry Zone is irrigated with a wonderful man-made network of tanks, most of which are centuries old and reflect the vast engineering knowhow that prevailed in Sri Lanka thousands of years ago.

 "We are an older couple celebrating a lot of years of marriage (and hiking) in Sri Lanka in February this year, for two weeks, and three days in the Maldives. Although we love to drive, we chose to go with a driver-guide, after planning the trip completely independently. (It turned out he might help us in the planning and selection of hotels, we own). The main advantage is reaching the sites, some of which are tired, refreshed after someone else used to bad roads, with bad signage - If you are i..." Sam
