Sri Lanka, the tropical teardrop island at the toe of India, perhaps best known for the palm fringed sandy beaches that line its extensive coast. For a relatively small island, Sri Lanka has remarkable cultural and geographical diversity.

There are rock temples and fortresses, ruins of ancient and sacred cities, and relics of a colonial age. If that’s not enough to tempt you, Sri Lanka also has a naturally spectacular interior that’s home to cool hill stations and tea plantations, and wildlife-rich parks and reserves where elephants, leopards, crocodiles and sloth bears roam free.

Sri Lanka holidays take on a slower pace. This is an island where time takes on a different meaning; it may take a little longer to get from A to B, but that only adds to its charm. It gives you more time to take in your surroundings and discover the country from a local’s perspective as your guide proudly regales you with tales of their homeland.
