Enjoy a holiday that is like the perfect Sri Lankan curry: colourful, full of flavour and remarkably good for you! On our getaway, you’ll explore the wonders of this island paradise in style and comfort. Get ready to explore charming cities and revered temples, shop in local markets, walk in tea plantations, take one of the most beautiful train rides in the world, stay in luxurious hotels, and enjoy the fun camaraderie of your travel crew throughout.
Your adventure starts with exploring three of Sri Lanka’s most iconic ancient sites: the majestic Sigiriya Rock, Dambulla Cave Temples and Temple of the Tooth Relic. All 3 are incredible in unique ways; at Sigiriya, marvel at the remnants of a mighty palace and fortress that cling to the top of an immense rock formation – a reminder of the glory of Lanka’s kings of old; Dambulla’s cave temples, covered with 1000s of red, blue and gold murals, and filled with huge, larger-than-life statues that glow in the darkness, absolutely stuns; and the Temple of the Tooth Relic, revered as one of the most sacred Buddhist sites, enshrines a tooth relic believed to have belonged to the Buddha himself.
Then, it’s time to soak up the charms of Nuwara Eliya, one of the country’s most lush and beautiful regions. Here, immerse yourself in Sri Lanka’s famous tea-making traditions as you join tea pickers in the plantation, witness the tea-making process in a factory, and savour a cup of local Ceylon tea. And then hop onto the train from Eliya to Ella – it is one of the most beautiful train rides in the world! Gaze out at velvety-green valleys of tea, mighty white waterfalls, lovely little towns and blue mountains. It’s simply spectacular.
Plus, get ready to go Gaga for Galle! Wander through its colourful streets lined with lovely boutiques, scented with spices from tempting eateries, and visit iconic sights like the Galle Fort. You’ll also be able to enjoy some R&R at palm-fringed Unawatuna Beach, once named the world’s best beach by Discovery Channel.
Finally, experience the vibrant energy of Colombo
All throughout, lovely little experiences that elevate your holiday await stays in beautiful, luxurious 5* and boutique hotels, delicious curries and Lion beer, plenty of time to unwind along the way, and the Sri Lankans themselves, one of the most friendly and hospitable people you’re likely to meet.
