What you’ll do

This 12-day Sri Lanka itinerary offers a perfect mix of culture, nature, history, and coastal beauty. It begins in Colombo, exploring the city’s vibrant markets, colonial landmarks, and modern attractions. From there, the journey continues to Ratnapura, the island’s gem capital, where you’ll visit gem mines, temples, and the lush Sinharaja Rainforest, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Next, head to the scenic hill country of Ella, known for its waterfalls, tea plantations, and stunning hikes like Little Adam’s Peak. The trip then takes you south to Yala, where you’ll visit sacred temples and go on a safari in Yala National Park, famous for its wildlife, especially leopards and elephants.

The final stretch brings you to the historic city of Galle to explore the iconic Galle Fort and its colonial charm. An additional day is set aside to enjoy the southern beaches—relaxing at Unawatuna, Dalawella, or Mirissa—before returning to Galle for the night.

The journey wraps up with a transfer to Negombo for departure.
