This ftour 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 before exploring 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 and then hop aboard a train for the spectacular journey to Ella, which offers awesome views down to the south coast. We enjoy time on the beach before heading back toward Colombo for our flight home.
