Live and breathe the culture of Sri Lanka as you take a walking tour through the picturesque backstreets of Colombo, see the famous fortress of Sigiriya set upon its rocky outcrop and visit Rahju’s Contemporary Art Gallery in Kandy. For something truly unique, take part in a Nuwara Eliya tea experience—an all-immersive tea leaf picking and fresh tea tasting affair, at one of the world’s most beautiful tea plantations. Voyage into the depths of the jungle on a game drive in Wilpattu National Park and keep your eyes peeled for leopards and elephants. Before the journey home, be sure not to miss the exquisite fragrances of the National Spice Garden in Matale and the architectural wonders of Anuradhapura—the capital city of Sri Lanka’s first kingdom that ruled for a thousand years.

From the golden shores of Colombo to the misty highlands of Nuwara Eliya and the wild landscapes of Yala, experience the many faces of Sri Lanka on this unforgettable journey. Climb the UNESCO-listed Sigiriya Rock Fortress, explore the sacred temples of Kandy and Anuradhapura, and meet a practicing monk for a traditional blessing ceremony. Watch Asian elephants roam freely on safari in Yala National Park, then journey to the colonial streets of Galle Fort, where Dutch-era mansions overlook the Indian Ocean. Along the way, visit a working tea estate, enjoy high tea at the Grand Hotel and witness the skill of Weligama’s stilt fishermen. With amazing landscapes, rich traditions and warm hospitality at every turn, discover the Pearl of the Indian Ocean on a trip to Sri Lanka.
