Overview
About this package
Seven days on the teardrop island that packs in more wonders per square kilometre than almost anywhere on earth. Climb Sigiriya Rock Fortress at dawn, witness the Sacred Tooth Relic of the Buddha, spot leopards on safari at Yala, ride the world's most scenic train through emerald tea country, and end your journey barefoot on Unawatuna's powder beach. Add a Kandyan dance performance, a spice-garden stop, and gem-cutting workshops along the way, and this compact loop still finds room for genuine cultural depth.
