Discover the World With Us
Arrive Colombo. Drive north to the Cultural Triangle — Sigiriya, Polonnaruwa, Anuradhapura. Ancient kingdoms, sacred elephants, and rock fortresses rising from jungle.
The cultural capital. Temple of the Tooth. Then south through tea plantations — the air changes as you climb into the hills of Nuwara Eliya. Ella is as beautiful as people say.
Sri Lanka has the highest density of leopards of any national park on Earth. Your naturalist guide has tracked these animals for 20 years. Dawn game drives in a private jeep.
Mirissa whale watching at dawn (blue whales pass from December to April). Lazy beach days. Galle Fort at sunset — the most romantic place in Sri Lanka. Fly home from Colombo.
Geoffrey Bawa's masterpiece of architecture — a hotel built into a rock face above a lake, with jungle growing through it. One of Asia's greatest buildings.
Perched above a tea estate with views of Ella Rock and Little Adam's Peak. The sunrise from your terrace is the finest in Sri Lanka.
A clifftop resort above the Indian Ocean. Infinity pool over the sea, whale watching from the terrace, and a direct path to Weligama beach below.
Twenty minutes into the first dawn drive in Yala, our guide stopped the jeep and pointed. A female leopard with a cub, walking across the track 10 metres ahead of us. I barely breathed.
Four hours through tea estates, waterfalls, and tunnels through cloud. The train rocks you gently. The window is open. You hang your head out and watch Sri Lanka roll past.
The largest animal ever to have lived on Earth, 30 metres long, breaching 50 metres from our boat off Mirissa. We were both in tears. Nothing prepares you for the scale of it.
