Highlights of Sri Lanka (GKP) – 13 days

As the name suggests, this fantastic tour covers the highlights of Sri Lanka, from ancient cities, to charming hill stations and awesome beaches. Sumptuous scenery, abundant wildlife, great food and welcoming people – Sri Lanka is a wonderful country.

We start near to Colombo and head north, visiting an elephant orphanage along the way, before we explore the ancient cities of Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa, as well as Sigiriya rock fortress and the Buddhist cave paintings at Dambulla. From there we head south into the hilly tea plantation region, visiting Matale's spice gardens, Kandy and Nuwara Eliya, where we stay in a heritage bungalow.

After trekking to the spectacular lookout at 'World’s End', we take a nature walk through a beautiful forested area, then hop aboard a train for the spectacular journey to Ella, which offers awesome views down to the south coast. A day or two on the beach and then we head back toward Colombo for the flight home.
