Places to visit in Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka may look small on the map, but the island is full of contrasts and discoveries. Along the west coast, the golden sands of Negombo invite you to relax by the sea, while inland the landscape shifts to the cool, misty hills of Nuwara Eliya, where tea plantations stretch across the slopes. Further north, the wide plains leading to Jaffna reveal a different culture and history, adding even more depth to your journey.
The island’s past is equally captivating. In the Cultural Triangle, you can explore the remains of the great Sinhalese kingdoms-ancient cities, palaces, and temples that speak of a glorious past. On the southern coast, the Dutch-colonial fortress of Galle tells another chapter, with cobbled lanes, old ramparts, and a lively seaside atmosphere.
Nature lovers will also find plenty to enjoy. National parks such as Uda Walawe, famous for its elephant herds, or Yala, home to leopards and countless bird species, bring the wild side of Sri Lanka to life.
With so much variety, planning can feel daunting, but our Sri Lanka specialists use their first-hand knowledge to craft tailor-made itineraries that reflect your interests and travel style.
