Sri Lanka Tour Highlights

Despite being only the fifth largest mountain in Sri Lanka, Adam’s Peak is far and away the most spectacular – the object of veneration for many centuries, and a popular trekking destination for today’s visitors.

At the southwest tip of Sri Lanka, Galle is superbly well preserved European fortified city jutting into the ocean, with ramparts enclosing a hidden world of crumbling churches and colonial-era town houses.

Sri Lanka's capital Colombo is a bustling and chaotic city, quite different from the pace of the rest of the island. Its historical centre is the colonial Fort, built by the Portuguese as a fortress with many of its grand buildings coming from the Victorian period.

The ancient capital of Anuradhapura is Sri Lanka's most sacred city. Founded in the 5th century BC, it is said to be the birthplace of Buddhism in Sri Lanka and is home to some of the island's most sacred Buddhist sites.

Sigiriya (Lion Rock) towers 200m over the surrounding plains and is easily one of Sri Lanka's most recognisable and visited attractions. 

Kandy is know to many Sri Lankans as Maha Nuwara, 'The Great City', and is the cultural and spiritual centre of the country. Located in the central highlands around a picturesque lake, Kandy is Sri Lanka's second largest city and home to its most important religious site, the Temple of the Tooth Relic.

Sri Lanka's highest town, Nuwara Eliya lies at the foot of Pidurutalagala, the island's highest mountain.

Yala National Park is the most visited of Sri Lanka's wildlife reserves.
