The Sigiriya Rock Fortress entrance fee is 30 USD for foreign tourists. The absolute best time to climb is right when the gates open at 6:30 AM. This ensures you beat the intense midday heat and avoid the massive crowds that arrive on tour buses later.

If you want to save money, hike Pidurangala Rock instead. It is right next to Sigiriya, costs only a few dollars, and gives you an incredible view of Sigiriya Rock itself.
