Sri Lanka, a jewel-shaped island in the Indian Ocean, offers one-of-a-kind experiences. Wander through the Cultural Triangle, where ancient kingdoms and sacred temples preserve timeless rituals. Climb the staggering UNESCO-listed wonder, Sigiriya Rock Fortress, or explore the ruins of Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa.

In the highlands, Nuwara Eliya’s misty hills and colonial bungalows evoke a bygone era. Sip the world’s finest tea on a private tea plantation tour and stay in a luxurious heritage estate. The cool climate and manicured gardens make this hill country retreat a peaceful escape from the tropical heat.

Along the coast, golden beaches invite adventure. Our advisors suggest Unawatuna and Tangalle for sunbathing and surfing, or Mirissa for sunrise whale watching. Unearth secluded diving spots on the east coast, or head to Yala National Park for game drives and sightings of leopards and elephants.
"I love that you can include a safari on a Sri Lanka holiday, with Yala National Park my top pick. Enjoy game safaris to spot elephants and leopards, along with sloth bears, sambars, jackals and spotted deer by day and delight in luxury accommodation with gourmet dining by night. It’s the perfect way to experience Sri Lanka's wild side without sacrificing comfort.”
Kenneth Higgins

“Afternoon tea at The Grand Hotel Nuwara Eliya is a timeless indulgence, set against the backdrop of Sri Lanka’s 'Little England.' Sip on fragrant Ceylon tea on the Grand Veranda, where elegant, tiered stands overflow with delicate pastries and finger sandwiches. We love this refined experience for a taste of colonial-era grandeur amidst stunning highland scenery."
