Comprehensive Sri Lankan Adventure

Eight days across Sri Lanka, moving from coast to hill country to cultural heartland, taking in beaches, ancient sites and a national park along the way.

You start in Colombo and Negombo, head south to Galle's old town and the beaches of Weligama, then track inland for wildlife at Yala, hikes around Ella and the train ride through the hills. The final stretch covers Kandy, Sigiriya, Dambulla and a stop in village life before the trip wraps up.

It's a full circuit in a short time, so expect a good mix of scenery, history and downtime, with someone else handling the logistics throughout.
