Sri Lanka

Welcome to Sri Lanka

It’s everything you’ve heard – beaches, tea plantations, ancient cities, spectacular train rides, safaris, incredible food, beautiful people and crazy bus rides. I spent a month in Sri Lanka travelling with my daughter and also solo. It’s a magnificent teardrop floating in the Indian Ocean, not to be missed.

Put the time into figuring out an itinerary as there is much ground to cover and delightful places to discover. Do you want to combine your trip with ancient cities, temples and beaches? Are safaris on your list? Or do you want a little bit of everything? Make sure you build in time to relax as Sri Lanka is a country that makes it easy to sit back and connect to the bigger picture.

Welcome to Sri Lanka, a country that stole a piece of my heart.

  • Sri Lanka blew me away from the get-go. What was it that made me feel as though I was slipping back in time to a simpler life
  • Going to Sri Lanka?  A safari at a National Park is a must, I went to five! Yala is a must for elephants and possibly leopard sightings. Minnerya, during the annual elephant gathering, is unforgettable.
  • Nine of the best places to visit – Dambulla. Arugam Bay, Ella, Galle, Haputale, Kandy, Polonnaruwa, Sigiriya and Pidurangala Rock.
