Your unforgettable Sri Lanka tour begins today as you depart from NEW YORK  Airport. As you board your international flight, anticipation builds for the vibrant landscapes, ancient temples, and golden beaches that await you in the island paradise of Sri Lanka.

Settle into your seat and relax as you take to the skies. Whether you’re travelling solo, with a partner, or part of a group, this long-haul journey is your gateway to a country steeped in history, spirituality, and tropical splendour. Most international flights are overnight, allowing you to arrive in Colombo refreshed and ready to begin your adventure.

For those looking to enhance the travel experience, consider upgrading to Premium Economy or Business Class for added space and comfort (optional upgrade available at your own cost). Access to the airport lounge at NEW YORK is also available (optional at your own cost), providing a peaceful setting to begin your holiday in style.

Tonight, let the gentle hum of the aircraft be the overture to your upcoming discovery of Sri Lanka’s timeless charm. Arrival is scheduled for the following day, where a warm welcome awaits in Colombo.

Day 2 : ARRIVAL IN COLOMBO – COASTAL TRANQUILLITY IN WAIKKAL

Ayubowan! Welcome to Sri Lanka – the lush tropical jewel of the Indian Ocean. After clearing immigration and collecting your luggage at Bandaranaike International Airport in Colombo, you’ll be warmly greeted by your Lumle Holidays representative and transferred to the coastal town of Waikkal, a peaceful haven just north of Negombo.

Surrounded by swaying palms and the gentle sound of the ocean, your hotel in Waikkal offers the perfect setting to relax and recover from your journey. Spend the afternoon at leisure – unwind by the pool, feel the soft sand beneath your feet, or simply soak up the tropical atmosphere with a refreshing drink in hand.

As night falls, you may wish to celebrate your first evening in Sri Lanka with an optional candlelit dinner by the beach, indulging in fresh seafood and Sri Lankan delicacies beneath a star-strewn sky (available at your own cost). Let the warm breeze and soothing waves ease you into island life before your adventure begins in earnest tomorrow.

Day 3 : INTO THE CULTURAL HEART – SIGIRIYA FORTRESS & FLOATING LUNCH

After breakfast, set off through the lush countryside on a scenic drive to Sigiriya, one of Sri Lanka’s most iconic and evocative destinations. Nestled in the island’s central plains, this ancient city is surrounded by jungle, water gardens, and timeless rock formations. On arrival, check into your handpicked hotel and take a moment to refresh and soak in the serene surroundings.

Your afternoon offers a unique and tranquil experience – enjoy an unforgettable floating lunch on the lake. Aboard a traditional wooden vessel, feast on a selection of authentic Sri Lankan dishes while you glide across calm waters, surrounded by the scenic beauty of the countryside. It’s a peaceful moment of indulgence, framed by birdsong and panoramic views.

In the early evening, embark on a guided tour of the spectacular Sigiriya Rock Fortress – a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the great marvels of ancient architecture. Rising 200 metres from the forest floor, this imposing rock is crowned by a royal palace, with a dramatic lion-shaped entrance that gives Sigiriya its name. Explore the frescoes, water gardens, mirror wall, and intricate ruins that tell tales of a 5th-century kingdom.

The ascent to the summit involves around 1,200 steps, so be prepared for a moderately strenuous climb of 2–3 hours if you plan to reach the top. The effort is richly rewarded with sweeping views of the surrounding landscape bathed in golden light at sunset.

Day 4 : WILDLIFE WONDERS – MINNERIYA SAFARI & OPTIONAL SCENIC FLIGHT

Today offers a different kind of thrill, with a chance to witness Sri Lanka’s gentle giants in their natural habitat. In the evening, head to Minneriya National Park for an included safari experience. Known for its seasonal elephant gatherings, the park is a haven for wildlife lovers. Journey in a 4x4 vehicle across grasslands and wetlands as you encounter herds of Asian elephants, as well as deer, peacocks, and a variety of bird species. It’s a breathtaking, up-close look at one of Sri Lanka’s most beloved creatures.

For those seeking a bird’s-eye view of this majestic region, opt for an optional scenic helicopter ride over Sigiriya (available at your own cost). Soar above the famous rock fortress, take in views of lush forests, cascading waterfalls, rice fields, and the dramatic contours of Sri Lanka’s central highlands. It's an awe-inspiring perspective few get to experience – and one you won’t soon forget.

Day 5 : JOURNEY TO THE HILL CAPITAL – ARRIVAL IN KANDY

After breakfast, continue your journey into Sri Lanka’s central highlands as you travel to the sacred city of Kandy – the final stronghold of the Sinhalese kings and a vibrant hub of tradition and culture. En route, watch the scenery shift from flat plains to misty emerald hills, where tea-covered slopes and forested peaks rise into view.

Upon arrival, you'll check into your hotel nestled in the lush Hanthana hills, just above the city. The perfect escape from the bustle below, this peaceful setting offers a refreshing balance of serenity and proximity to Kandy's main attractions.

In the afternoon, immerse yourself in the city’s unique blend of spiritual calm and energetic street life during an included guided city tour. From the colourful bustle of the local markets to the tranquil beauty of Kandy Lake, every corner holds a story. Discover colonial-era architecture, sacred landmarks, and lively streets that speak to Kandy’s historical and cultural significance.

A visit to a Batik art and wood carving centre offers insight into the island’s rich artisan traditions. Watch local craftspeople bring fabric and timber to life with intricate detail – and perhaps pick up a one-of-a-kind souvenir to remember your journey.

Day 6 : CULTURAL ENCOUNTERS & SRI LANKAN FLAVOURS

Kandy’s hilltop location makes it the perfect base for exploring both natural and spiritual wonders. Today’s experiences offer a chance to connect more deeply with the region’s heritage and cuisine.

In the morning, you'll take part in a delightful cooking class, where a local chef will guide you through the preparation of traditional Sri Lankan dishes. Learn how to use fragrant spices, fresh herbs, and tropical produce to create authentic flavours – then sit down and enjoy your handmade meal over lunch.

The rest of the day is free to explore at your leisure. You may wish to visit the renowned Sacred Temple of the Tooth Relic, one of the most important Buddhist pilgrimage sites in the world (optional visit at your own cost – modest dress required). Alternatively, venture to the nearby Dambulla Cave Temple if you haven’t already, to witness ancient frescoes and statues hidden within this cliffside marvel (optional excursion at your own cost).

As the sun sets behind the Hanthana hills, enjoy the cool mountain air and reflect on the cultural treasures you’ve uncovered in Sri Lanka’s enchanting hill capital.

Day 7 : INTO THE TEA COUNTRY – KOSLANDA & THE ART OF CEYLON TEA

This morning, leave Kandy behind as you travel deeper into Sri Lanka’s highlands toward the peaceful village of Koslanda. En route, the landscape transforms into rolling hills blanketed with lush green tea estates – a signature image of the island’s central region. Arriving in this tranquil setting, take some time to rest, breathe in the crisp mountain air, and prepare for a deliciously aromatic experience.

You’ll enjoy an included visit to a tea plantation and factory, where you’ll be introduced to the meticulous craft behind Ceylon tea – one of Sri Lanka’s most prized exports. Witness how tender leaves are hand-plucked, sorted, and processed into the world-renowned brew. Sip a freshly brewed cup while learning how flavour, altitude, and tradition combine to create the perfect cup of tea.

It’s a peaceful and sensory-rich experience that immerses you in both the culture and the natural rhythm of Sri Lanka’s tea country.

Day 8 : ICONIC RAIL JOURNEY – NANU OYA TO BANDARAWELA

After a leisurely morning, your adventure continues with one of Sri Lanka’s most scenic experiences – a train ride through the highlands. Following a short transfer, board the train at Nanu Oya for a stunning journey to Bandarawela. Originally constructed in the 19th century by the British, this historic railway line offers an unforgettable passage through dense forests, misty valleys, and endless tea-covered slopes.

Peer out of open windows or stand at the doorway as the train winds past cascading waterfalls, mountain villages, and terraced farms. This is not just a ride – it’s a moving postcard of Sri Lanka’s most breathtaking landscapes. The train is simple in design, but its charm lies in the views and the local life you’ll witness along the way.

Upon arrival in Bandarawela, you’ll be met by your driver and transferred to your nearby hotel, nestled amid hills and cool breezes. Enjoy a relaxing evening in this laid-back town, a favourite retreat for those looking to unwind in the heart of the highlands.

Day 9 : WILD BEAUTY & WATERFALLS – JUNGLE WALK & SAFARI IN YALA

Today, venture south into the untamed wilderness of Yala National Park, Sri Lanka’s most celebrated wildlife sanctuary. After a morning transfer to Weerawila, located just outside the park boundaries, check into your lodge or hotel nestled amid dry-zone forest and open plains – the perfect base for your safari adventure.

In the early afternoon, lace up your walking shoes for a short but scenic guided jungle walk through lush forest trails leading to a hidden waterfall. Along the way, listen to the rustling trees, birdsong, and calls of distant monkeys as you immerse yourself in the stillness of nature. On arrival, relax beside the secluded cascade, where clear waters tumble into a natural pool. Take in the tranquil beauty – or, for the adventurous, enjoy a refreshing dip (swimming optional and at your own discretion).

Later in the day, it’s time for the highlight – an included jeep safari in Yala National Park. Renowned for having one of the highest densities of leopards in the world, Yala offers thrilling opportunities to spot these elusive big cats, alongside elephants, sloth bears, crocodiles, and countless bird species. With your naturalist guide and expert driver, navigate the park’s scrubland, lakes, and rocky outcrops in search of Sri Lanka’s iconic wildlife.

As the golden hour sets in and the landscape glows under the fading sun, you’ll return to your accommodation with a camera full of sightings and a heart full of wonder.

Day 10 : GALLE FORT & ARRIVAL IN BENTOTA – FROM HERITAGE TO COAST

Today, you’ll journey north along Sri Lanka’s sun-kissed southern coastline toward the serene beaches of Bentota. En route, make a captivating stop in Galle, home to the famous Galle Fort – a UNESCO World Heritage Site steeped in history and colonial charm.

Originally built by the Portuguese in the 16th century and later fortified by the Dutch, the fort is a maze of cobbled streets lined with elegant colonial mansions, cafés, art galleries, and boutiques. Enjoy time to wander the ramparts, visit the lighthouse, or simply soak up the atmosphere of this beautifully preserved seaside enclave.

After your visit, continue along the scenic coastal road to Bentota. On arrival, check in to your handpicked beachfront resort and unwind in the peaceful setting. With golden sands, swaying coconut palms, and the shimmering Indian Ocean at your doorstep, you’ve arrived at the perfect place to relax and reflect on your journey so far.

Day 11 : RELAXATION & COASTAL CHARM IN BENTOTA

Wake up to the gentle sound of waves and the scent of sea breeze – your first full day in Bentota is yours to enjoy at your own pace. Lounge by the pool, walk barefoot along the golden sands, or simply unwind with a fresh coconut under the shade of a swaying palm. This is a day for pure, uninterrupted leisure.

If you’re feeling adventurous, the area is well-known for its optional water sports, including jet skiing, paddleboarding, banana boat rides, or a peaceful boat cruise along the Bentota River (activities available at your own cost). Whether you opt for adrenaline or serenity, Bentota delivers it all with signature island charm.

Day 12 : INDULGE IN WELLNESS OR LOCAL DISCOVERY

Enjoy another day of tropical tranquillity by the coast. This is the perfect time to treat yourself to an optional Ayurvedic spa experience – a centuries-old Sri Lankan wellness tradition known for its herbal oils, therapeutic massage, and calming rituals (available at your own cost).

If you'd like to discover more of the area, consider a local excursion to explore nearby temples, turtle hatcheries, or a visit to Lunuganga – the beautifully landscaped country home of Geoffrey Bawa, Sri Lanka’s most renowned architect (optional experiences at your own cost).

In the evening, enjoy a beachfront dinner or a peaceful stroll along the moonlit shoreline – a perfect end to a relaxed and restorative day.

 

Day 13 : FINAL DAY IN PARADISE

Make the most of your final full day in Sri Lanka’s coastal paradise. Take one last swim in the warm Indian Ocean, sip a tropical drink with your feet in the sand, or just relax with a good book as you soak up the views.

If you wish to end your journey on a high note, why not enjoy an optional sunset cruise along the coastline or a romantic private beach dinner under the stars (available at your own cost)? However you choose to spend the day, Bentota offers the perfect backdrop for reflection and celebration.

Day 14 : DEPARTURE – FAREWELL SRI LANKA

This morning, after breakfast, it’s time to say goodbye to the island that has welcomed you with open arms and unforgettable experiences. You’ll be transferred from your hotel in Bentota to Colombo International Airport for your return flight home.

Leave with a suitcase full of stories, a camera filled with memories, and the lasting warmth of Sri Lanka’s tropical soul. Until next time – Ayubowan!
