Highland to Coast Harmony

Embark on an unforgettable 10-day journey through Sri Lanka’s most iconic landscapes—from misty highlands and cultural heartlands to tropical beaches and vibrant cities.

Continue to the cool tea-covered slopes of Nuwara Eliya before gliding through the island’s hill country by train to Ella, a charming mountain retreat. Immerse yourself in nature, waterfalls, and gentle hikes, then descend through the southern wilderness, with an optional safari, into the cosmopolitan energy of Colombo. Finally, unwind on a golden beach in Negombo or relax before departure with sunset views and seaside ambiance.
