About this trip
This 8-day tour takes you round Sri Lanka's classic circuit, with a private driver-guide and vehicle at your disposal throughout, rather than a fixed group schedule to follow.
You'll cover the island's core sights, from the ancient cities to the hill country and down to the south coast, sleeping in good-quality hotels along the way with half-board included.
It's a comfortable, family-friendly way to see the country — air-conditioned transport, wifi on board, and baby seats provided if you need them.
