Sri Lanka Holidays
Sally Walters, our Sri Lanka specialist considers this country as one of her most favourite holiday desinations. Having visited three times she has seen Sri Lanka develop into the boutique destination it is today. Sally will tell you that sitting on Thalpe beach watching the turtles bob up and down and dinner at the sublime Amangalla are two of her travel highlights.
Sri Lanka offers the perfect place for dividing time between relaxing on one of the many pristine beaches and visiting its historical monuments, many of which are designated UNESCO World Heritage sites. The ancient capitals of Polonnaruwa and Anuradhapura are definitely an architectural highlight and well worth a visit along with the beautiful landscapes of Kandy and the central highlands.
Offering a very different atmosphere to its neighbouring country, India; the Sinhalese, Tamil and Muslim local people are proud of their cultural history, wildlife rich national parks along with their sumptuous cuisine.
Not many countries can offer such a wonderful mix of luxury, beach, culture, wildlife and history all within a days drive of each other or a quick float plane trip.
