Be prepared to get out and about, travel around Sri Lanka and take in the lush green beauty of the countryside and an altogether gentler way of life. Here, you can discover ancient forts, the ruins of palaces, temples and civilisations where you will feel transported back centuries in time as you explore and discover more of the incredible heritage of this historic land and its colourful people. Walk through tea plantations where the lifestyle hasn't changed for generations and experience the magic of the mangrove forests where the cries of peacocks, leopards and other exotic wildlife can be heard all around. Take a safari in the south and see herds of elephant, water buffalo, eagles and deer. Or simply relax on one of the many golden beaches. This is the surprise and wonder that Sri Lanka holds in store for you.
Let the gentler pace follow you into the hotels and resorts where dedicated Ayurvedic spas await to pamper and encourage your inner health and wellbeing. Or stop off at one of the many herbal farms in the countryside where a relaxing massage and herbal treatments will reinvigorate you before continuing your explorations.
A visit to the capital Colombo is a must. Here a rich colonial heritage stands proud beside ultra-modern hotels and bustling street markets. Barter for beautiful Batik and silk clothing, as well as rare gems and ornate artefacts. The perfect souvenirs of a perfect holiday. |
