To see the sights of the "Cultural Triangle" radially, and not moving from hotel to hotel along the route, you should choose Negombo, not Kalutara - it is south of Colombo, which in practice means: the path to the most impressive objects of Sri Lankan and world history ((Sigiriya, Dambulla , Polonnaruwa, not to mention Anuradhapura - overnight stay is required there) will take at least 5 hours one way.

It is not necessary to visit EVERYTHING in one tour. I also want to take a break.
Very close - in Bentota, you can visit the temple and see a big elephant, buy fruit, it's generally 20 minutes.
To the south is a turtle farm.
Then you can take an excursion along the river (1-2 hours, depending on transport), visit the islands (where they grow cinnamon, temple, snake, ... depends on the guide), there we saw just huge, more than 2 meters monitor lizards, monkeys , different birds, a crocodile, a huge squirrel ......
Even south of Gale (fort, market, fair), on the way we stopped by Hikkaduwa, snorkeled, visited Unawatuna Bay - just a fairy tale! There are no waves, the ocean is like in advertising! Along the way, we visited tea plantations, a phyto-farm, a rock garden .. This excursion took about 12 hours, we were in no hurry, but you can refuse some places and visit strictly what is interesting.
All excursions were taken from beach-boys, it was much cheaper, more interesting (talked with vacationers, compared) and somehow more ethnic, closer to the people, and they are kind and cheerful there.

It’s unrealistic to visit everything on vacation, of all that we visited twice (Temple of the Tooth Relic with a national park + tea factory, Galle + turtle farm + stones, Sigiriya + Dambulla), Sigiriya impressed me the most .... they are also called the eighth wonder of the world . Let the trip get tiresome, but it's worth it))))
