Yes. The tuk-tuk tour tour specifically caters to sunrise timings. They provide transport from your local hotel to the base before 5:00 AM.

Nice experience, we really enjoyed the view and the monkeys 🐒 It was good to be there early in the morning, really recommended 👍
My guide was brilliant helped me up and kept me safe thank you . Reliable and knew a short cut coming down . I felt very safe as a solo female
Had a great day with Irfan, our driver. He told us a lot about Sri Lanka. Showed us extra interesting places and let us taste Sri lankan specialties. He also drives neatly and gentle. With a son who always get carsick thans is really a bonus.
