Sri Lanka is undoubtedly a great destination, whether for enjoying the delights of the sea or adventuring inland and experiencing the culture of the locals. And that it has a lot to offer in terms of culture. Not for nothing is it called the Pearl of the Indian Ocean.

But how do you travel around Sri Lanka in a meaningful and stress-free way and take away the best experiences?

Check out a sample itinerary for a nine-day tour of the island. It will take you on a journey to ancient royal cities, Buddhist temples and religious sites hidden in impenetrable jungles, National Parks with exotic wildlife and finally to the most famous beaches on the south coast.

Polonnaruwa

We're going to the royal city, Pollonaruwa. It was founded in the 11th century after Anuradhapura failed to defend itself against Indian raids. The city is smaller than Anuradhapura, but much better preserved. You can admire the ancient Sinhala architecture in its full glory.

Dambulla

We will stop at the Dambulla Cave Temple, where a huge golden Buddha statue will greet you on arrival. However, the more pleasant access to the cave complex is from the other side, a few minutes drive from the main road. There are fewer tourists and you'll meet many curious monkeys on the way to the top :)

Sigiriya

Ascent to the Lion Rock. From which you can enjoy an amazing view of the surroundings, especially the distant mountainous landscape in the south of the island. At the top are the ruins of the palaces built by King Kashyapa in BC.

Temple of Buddha's Tooth

Visit the Temple of Buddha's Tooth in the heart of the city. This is one of the most sacred buildings on the island. Hidden in the heart of the temple is the Buddha's tooth, closely guarded and locked away in seven golden boxes. Besides the relics, you can also admire the richly decorated rooms with the history of the Buddha's tooth depicted in painted pictures.

Elephant orphanage in Pinnawala

The Elephant Orphanage in Pinnawala, where you can get up close and personal with Indian elephants. The facility has been operating here for over 40 years, caring for elephants who, for various reasons, cannot look after themselves.

Royal Botanic Garden

Visit the Peradeniya Botanical Garden, one of the most important in the world. With an average temperature of 24°C and 160 rainy days a year, tropical and subtropical plants from all over the world thrive here.

Yala National Park

Yala is a larger park than Udawalawe and the main landmark is the elephant-shaped rock around which deer, elephants and water buffalo graze on the plains. The main attraction of the national park, however, is the leopards, which are often not easy to find due to the size of the park, so seeing them is not a given when visiting.

Udawalawe National Park

A visit to Udawalawe National Park awaits you. It is famous for its large elephant population, so you don't have to worry about not seeing any. Apart from the elephant family, you can also see herds of water buffalo, crocodiles, peacocks, a variety of waterfowl and coyotes.

Sinharaja National Park

A visit to the Sinharaja rainforest. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Apart from the rainforest itself, you will have the opportunity to admire various species of birds, butterflies, snakes and lizards. With a guide, you can choose which forest route to take, just like in Knuckles. Along the way, you'll come across a series of waterfalls and beautiful views of the Gin Ganga River and the misty rainforest.

Hummahaya Geyser

Your first stop will be at a rock formation where a geyser is created by waves crashing into the rocks in rough seas. The hole in the rock from which the water emerges is 20 metres deep and it has to be said that sometimes it's a real blow. 👌

Rafting Kitulgala

Kitulgala area, where you can raft on the local wild river. The entire water route is about four kilometres long and there are 3-4 major rapids along the way, which can sometimes make the raft wobble. On the final stretch, you can even take a dip in the river with the promise of the guide that there are really no crocodiles.
