Sri Lanka 360° Summer
Hey - this itinerary has two versions!
The trip in a nutshell
Are you ready to discover the cultural beauty of Sri Lanka, its breathtaking landscapes, white sand beaches and crystal clear water?
This trip to Sri Lanka will start from the country's capital, Colombo, and take you around the island to discover the secrets that this magnificent place has to offer, from the eighth wonder of the world to the stunning beaches. We will travel through Galle, Ella, Yala National Park, Nuwara Eliya then visit the beautiful archaeological sites of Polonnaruwa, Dambulla and Sigiriya before soaking up the sun around Trincomalee .
An unforgettable tour around the "teardrop of India" that will allow you to discover what the country has to offer from a variety of perspectives, from their delicious cuisine, to their deep and moving religious traditions: a journey so unique that you will desperately want to capture every frame on Instagram, before realising that the best memories will already be engraved in your heart.
