CAPTIVATING LANDSCAPE, COLONIAL HISTORY, AND PALM FRINGED BEACHES
Sri Lanka’s historical draws may have once centred around exotic spices and rare jewels, but today a whole country of wonderful surprises awaits. Sri Lanka has so much to explore that it would be near impossible to experience everything by remaining in just one place, and we are on hand to help take the headaches and time out of planning your own incredible bespoke itinerary.
The bustling capital of Columbo is a perfect starting point. A delightful, sun-drenched city where tuk-tuk is the only way to travel. Experience a personal tuk-tuk tour, weaving in and out of the city traffic and admire the bright and beautiful colours of the busy pavements as you whizz by.
Enjoy a trip to one of Sri Lanka’s many tea plantations, and a visit to a natural wildlife reserve where you will marvel as elephants, big cats and crocodiles wander freely.
The South-West of Sri Lanka is a beach-lovers delight with seemingly endless golden sands, coconut palms surrounded by the warm, tranquil waters of the Indian Ocean. Favourite beach resorts include Negombo and Bentota where you will be spoilt for choice over where to stay. The hotels here range from the traditional colonial to more modern resorts promising the perfect holiday getaway with activities, entertainment, and delightful cuisine to enjoy.
