The ruins of Polonnaruwa famously formed the backdrop for Disney’s 2015 docu-drama, ‘Monkey Kingdom’. The film follows the lives of a troupe of toque macaques at the site as they compete for tit bits and grapple with an ever-changing pecking order of alpha males (and females!). Observe the stars in action on our popular primate-focused tour. Guided by a local monkey expert, you’ll see three different species in action and visit all of the site’s principal highlights, experiencing them from a unique and memorable perspective!

You can add this monkey tour to any tailor-made itinerary that spends time in Sri Lanka's Cultural Triangle.
