Every place we visited has different memories, all of them good. Too many to mention. I used Look Lanka Tours for a trip to Sri Lanka. I found the company very easy to deal with and it took the strain off planning the holiday as it was all done for us, hotels, flight transfer, driver the lot. The driver Jayaweera was an excellent tour guide, he was knowledgeable, prompt, excellent driver and adapted the tour to our needs. Every day the car was cleaned and he greeted us with a huge smile. He felt like part of the family. He was helpful with haggling too. I cannot thank him enough. The only thing I would say is the gems factory in Kandy is very expensive and the masks in the wood shop we were taken to were actually cheaper in the airport. I would like to thank you for an amazing holiday and for arranging it all. I will be using your services again.
A wonderful trip around Sri Lanka with the loveliest driver, Tiron. The tour we booked was 'Leisure in Paradise' - a two week 'Tour' of Sri Lanka. Tiron drove my husband and I around and was very friendly, patient, a safe driver, and we are happy to now call him our friend at the end of the trip. He learned what it was we enjoyed and wanted to do, and helped us make changes to the itinerary along the way so that we got the most enjoyment from our trip.
Bring along a camera with a long lens. You are going to see a lot of birds and up really close. From monitor lizard to a Kingfisher, you will see them all on this fantastic river safari that lasts about an hour. We took the boat from a place that's about 20 minutes from the Taj hotel in Bentota. Lovely experience.

What travelers are saying.
Sri Lanka Tours & Holidays
Pristine rainforest. Ancient rock fortresses. Wildlife aplenty. And some of the most perfect beaches on the planet. There are so many reasons to visit Sri Lanka.
One day you could be hiking the Knuckles Mountain Range, high in Sri Lanka’s hill country; the next, travelling by train through tea plantations and into the mountains. And when you start each morning with curry, hoppers and a cup of the local tea , you know it’s going to be a good day. Climb Lion Rock, a dramatic carved-rock fortress in Sigiriya, and explore Jaffna in the island’s north, previously off-limits to travellers. The only struggle you’ll have in Sri Lanka is knowing where to start.

Best time to visit sri lanka.
Sri Lanka is blessed with a tropical climate, with temperatures remaining in the high 20s throughout most of the year. To soak up some sunshine, be sure to come during the dry seasons (June - August and December – March). The rest of the time it's the monsoon season, so expect rain during this time.

Culture and customs
As an important stop on ancient trade routes, there’s a great mix of cultural influences present in modern-day Sri Lanka. The majority of Sri Lankans are Sinhalese Buddhists, followed by Tamils (who are mostly Hindu) and a small amount of Christians and Muslims. Various religious festivals and holy times are celebrated regularly in Sri Lanka, from large nationwide holidays to local village celebrations. As a fairly conservative nation, most locals dress modestly and displays of affection are not considered appropriate in public.
The British influence is still evident in Sri Lanka’s culture, cuisine and buildings. Drinking tea and playing cricket are the most obvious remnants of British colonial rule, although you’ll also find country cottages dotted throughout some rural regions with some serving traditional English fare like roast chicken and beef. Travellers will find that most Sri Lankans, despite having little, are quick to share their food and friendship. Known for being hospitable, generous and kind, when being offered tea or food in someone’s home, it is considered impolite to decline.
Eating and drinking
Intrepid believes that one of the best ways to experience a country is by eating! Whether you're sampling street food, savouring a cheap eat or indulging in a banquet, there are endless options to choose from wherever you are in the world.
Things to try in Sri Lanka
Sri Lankan curries are among the hottest in the world, but don’t let that put you off. Fragrant, coconut-based curries packed with chilli, garlic, turmeric and coriander will give your tastebuds a treat.
Being an island, Sri Lanka has access to an amazing array of seafood. Feast on fresh crab, swordfish, lobster and squid - or choose a fiery seafood-based curry.
These egg-filled crepe-like wonders can usually be found at breakfast buffets. Usually made from rice flour and coconut milk batter, they are a Sri Lankan twist on the traditional pancake.
With miles of tea plantations, Sri Lankans have grown accustomed to drinking their popular home-grown cash crop. Tea is served with milk and sugar almost everywhere in Sri Lanka, mainly at breakfast and during the day.
Geography and environment
Situated in the Indian Ocean, the island of Sri Lanka lies just under the Indian subcontinent, to the southwest of the Bay of Bengal. Much of Sri Lanka receives a high level of rainfall during the monsoon season, with the dry northern areas being the exception. Due to the high level of rainfall, tropical evergreen forest proliferates around the country. Despite extensive land clearing for agriculture, there are still pockets of national parks and biosphere reserves around the country that hold much flora and fauna, including herds of wild elephants, deer and a wide range of birds. Sri Lanka’s remaining forests and protected areas are rich in biological diversity and remain popular with tourists looking for wildlife and adventure.
Sri Lanka’s main cities are typically built up, busy and increasingly becoming more multicultural and cosmopolitan. In comparison to Sri Lanka’s fast-paced, city-dwelling residents, many Sri Lankans still live in villages with simple housing and work predominantly in the agriculture and fishing industries.
History and government
Early history.
Sri Lanka was occupied by hunter-gatherers for thousands of years before the arrival of Sinhalese tribal groups in the 6th century BC. Buddhism arrived on the island sometime during the 3rd century BC and as a result, the city of Anuradhapura became the capital and centre of Buddhism. This Buddhist Kingdom endured years of Tamil raids until Anuradhapura was abandoned in favour of Polonnaruwa in the south. By the 12th century, Tamil rulers had a permanent presence in the north, where Hinduism still flourishes today.
The harbours of the south soon became important trading centres for Arab traders but by the 16th century a new wave of foreign influence began with the arrival of the Portuguese, then the Dutch. Sri Lanka’s wealth of cinnamon and geographic trading advantage appealed to the Portuguese, who slowly took over the island until the Dutch drove them out in the early 17th century. Remnants of this time can still be found in modern-day Sri Lanka, with colonial forts, cannons and other ruins dotted throughout the country, especially along the coast. By 1795, the British arrived and captured the island from the Dutch. Sugar, coffee, tea and rubber plantations were soon established by the British, along with Western schools, churches and colleges.
Recent history
Sri Lanka (Ceylon) was officially granted its independence in 1948 but continued to maintain relatively good relations with the British. By 1960, Ceylon had the world’s first female prime minister and in 1972, the name Ceylon was replaced with Sri Lanka, which had just become a republic (but remained a member of the Commonwealth). These changes in government and moves towards independence were largely Sinhalese-centric, which created some tension with parts of the Tamil population.
From 1983 to 2009 Sri Lanka endured an intermittent civil war, which resulted in some displacement of people and human rights violations. More recently, parts of Sri Lanka were devastated by the 2004 tsunami, yet Sri Lanka has rebounded with an increasingly stable economy based on agriculture, tourism and telecommunications. With one of the best-performing stock exchanges in the world, Sri Lanka has emerged from conflict, natural disasters and colonisation to become a rising tourist and economic hotspot.
Top 10 spiritual spots in Sri Lanka
1. bodhi tree.
Located at the ancient site of Anuradhapura, this sacred fig tree is said to have grown from a sapling of the Bodhi Tree that Buddha was sitting under when he became enlightened. This holy spot has long been a pilgrimage site for Sri Lankans and is now becoming a place of spiritual interest for visitors too.
2. Dewatagaha Mosque
One of the oldest mosques in Sri Lanka, this prayer place for worshippers of Islam has stood in Colombo for hundreds of years. The striking domes and minarets stand out in the Colombo skyline and provide a spiritual epicentre for Sri Lanka’s Muslims.
3. Temple of the Tooth
This Buddhist temple, located in Kandy, is named for the holy relic (said to be Buddha’s tooth) that is housed inside. It's a World Heritage site that has survived bombings and the ravages of time - visit here to see worshippers deep in prayer under the elaborate golden roof.
4. Dambulla Cave Temple
This well-preserved series of cave temples is brimming with paintings and statues that date all the way back to the 1st century. With colourful depictions of Buddha, Sri Lankan kings and various Hindu gods and goddesses, this is one of the most elaborate cave complexes in Asia.
5. Adam’s Peak
Sacred to Buddhists, Hindus, Christians and Muslims, Adam’s Peak is arguably Sri Lanka’s most popular pilgrimage spot. Surrounded by wildlife reserves, the walking trail leading to the mountain is a stunning walk regardless of religious persuasion. Watching a stirring sunrise from the holy summit is nothing short of magnificent.
6. Polonnaruwa Ruins
These impressive ruins of an ancient kingdom are home to massive palaces, huge statues, imposing temples and an artificial lake. Although historically and culturally important, witnessing orange-robed monks praying at Gal Vihara (a Buddhist rock temple) is a spiritual moment you won’t soon forget.
7. Sigiriya (Lion’s Rock)
This magnificent UNESCO World Heritage site was once a mountain monastery many centuries ago. The rock inscriptions, paintings and ancient ‘graffiti’ show insight into the lives of the monks who lived within the caves and grottoes before King Kasyapa took to the throne and established a capital there.
8. Anuradhapura
The ancient ruins of Anuradhapura are a significant holy place for Sri Lanka Buddhists. As one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world, there are many monasteries surrounding this area of supreme veneration.
9. Munneswaram Temple
This elaborate Hindu temple complex is known for its vibrant festivals in celebration of Navaratri and Sivaratri. During this time, the complex is filled with the buzz of devotees who come to attend daily pujas and bathe in the nearby holy river.
10. Mihintale
If you choose to climb the thousand or so steps to the top of Mihintale’s hill, you’ll be rewarded with panoramic views and a deeper understanding of Buddhism, as this is the site where Buddhism is said to have originated in Sri Lanka.
Known for its fragrant spices, vibrant fabrics, stunning silver jewellery and one-of-a-kind antiques, it’s difficult to leave Sri Lanka without a backpack full of mementos. From far-flung rural marketplaces to the boutiques and galleries of Galle and Colombo, shopping in Sri Lanka has something for everyone at a relatively low cost.
It's a good idea to check with your local customs officials to ensure that you are able to bring certain items back into your home country. Australia and New Zealand generally have strict quarantine laws.
Things to buy in Sri Lanka
1. Handicrafts
Although available all over the country, Kandy is one of the best places to buy locally-made handicrafts. Choose from handmade brass and silver jewellery, vibrant fabric bags and scarves, and batik wall hangings.
Home to a multitude of plantations and spice gardens, it’s no wonder some of the world’s best spices come from Sri Lanka. Perhaps buy some saffron, cloves, cinnamon, turmeric and cardamom to take home a taste of Sri Lanka with you.
3. Gem stones
If you’re after a low-cost gemstone, Sri Lanka is a top place to pick up a stone at a great price. Birthstones are popular, as are girls' best friends – diamonds! As always, buy from a licensed gem store to guarantee authenticity.
Festivals and events
Vesak festival.
People all over Sri Lanka commemorate Buddha’s birthday by visiting temples, giving alms and singing devotional songs. Simple, luminous paper lanterns are hung outside homes and food is freely distributed to the public via roadside stalls.

Is Sri Lanka safe for LGBTQIA+ travellers?
While travelling through Sri Lanka as an LGBTQIA+ is not necessarily dangerous, same-sex sexual activity is still illegal, and we advise that travellers are discreet in public.
Is Sri Lanka accessible for travellers with disabilities?
Intrepid is committed to making travel widely accessible, regardless of ability or disability. That’s why we do our best to help as many people see the world as possible, regardless of any physical or mental limitations they might have. We’re always happy to talk to travellers with disabilities and see if we can help guide them towards the most suitable itinerary for their needs and, where possible, make reasonable adjustments to our itineraries.
Travellers with disabilities will likely find it difficult to travel around Sri Lanka. Public transport has not been adapted for those with mobility, visual or auditory limitations, and pavements and roads are often in poor condition. Accommodation, too, is unlikely to be accessible for those in wheelchairs, except perhaps in top-end hotels.
If you do live with a visual, hearing or other impairment, let your booking agent or group leader know early on so they’re aware and suitable arrangements can be made. As a general rule, knowing some common words in the local language, carrying a written itinerary with you and taking to the streets in a group, rather than solo, can help make your travel experience the best it can be.
What kind of transport will I use in Sri Lanka?
Intrepid believes half the fun of experiencing a new country is getting there, and getting around once there! Where possible, Intrepid uses local transport options and traditional modes of transport - which usually carry less of an environmental impact, support small local operators and are heaps more fun.
Hire a bike and pedal around ancient cities full of fascinating ruins for a fun and interactive way to learn about Sri Lanka’s deep history.
Experience some of the world's most beautiful train journeys in the hill country of Sri Lanka.
Tuk Tuks are the best and cheapest way to make your way around Sri Lanka's towns and cities.
Jump in a jeep for a wildlife safari in Sri Lanka's national parks.
What to wear in Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka is warm. Sri Lanka is very warm. Sri Lanka will have you sweating unless you’re up visiting the tea plantations in the hills, so light, breathable clothing is essential. Whatever you do, don’t wear any clothing depicting the Buddha – this can get you arrested, as can having a Buddha tattoo.
Does my trip to Sri Lanka support The Intrepid Foundation?
Yes, all Intrepid trips support the Intrepid Foundation. In fact, we make a donation on behalf of every traveller. Trips to Sri Lanka directly support our foundation partner, Zero Plastic.
Zero Plastic aims to reduce plastic waste in Sri Lankan communities through education and volunteer programs. Donations from our trips help them raise awareness for the impact of plastic on the environment and local wildlife and reduce plastic pollution at the UNESCO-listed Sigiriya (and surrounding communities).
Intrepid will double the impact by dollar-matching all post-trip donations made to The Intrepid Foundation.
Do I need to purchase travel insurance before travelling?
Absolutely. All passengers travelling with Intrepid are required to purchase travel insurance before the start of their trip. Your travel insurance details will be recorded by your leader on the first day of the trip. Due to the varying nature, availability and cost of health care around the world, travel insurance is very much an essential and necessary part of every journey.
For more information on insurance, please go to: Travel Insurance
How do I stay safe and healthy while travelling?
Intrepid takes the health and safety of its travellers seriously and takes every measure to ensure that trips are safe, fun and enjoyable for everyone. We recommend that all travellers check with their government or national travel advisory organisation for the latest information before departure:

Sri Lanka - Tour Highlights and Travel Tips
Imagine walking among ruins that date back more than 2,000 years, followed the next day by a trip through the rainforest or a relaxing lie on a sandy beach. All of this is possible if you plan a holiday to Sri Lanka, an island country with incredibly diverse landscapes and a rich history. A trip to Sri Lanka will introduce you to welcoming people, eight UNESCO World Heritage sites, and tantalising dishes taking inspiration from Indonesian and Indian cuisine.
Tour Highlights
- Experience the artwork of the Dambulla Buddha caves
- Ride the train from Kandy to Ella (often called the world’s most scenic train route)
- Watch for wild elephants at Uda Walawe National Park
- See Sri Maha Bodhi, a sacred fig tree that is over 2,200 years old
- Climb Adam’s Peak, a sacred mountain in the heart of the jungle
- Sip on green tea at a plantation in Ella
Travel Tips
- Brush up on your history before visiting Sri Lanka. In particular, get familiar with the country’s civil war, which only ended in 2009. Be respectful as the country is still healing, and avoid engaging in political chat with a local.
- Sri Lanka has only recently seen a huge leap in tourism, so some areas of the country are still unequipped for tourists. If travelling outside high tourist areas, be prepared for little English, unpaved roads, and fewer convenience stores.
- Hygiene standards are much laxer than you are used to in Sri Lanka. To avoid food poisoning, skip the street food in favour of sit-down restaurants - and don’t drink the tap water. Check with your country’s travel authority about any recommended vaccinations, such as Hepatitis A, before travelling.
- Wondering what kind of electric adapter you’ll need for Sri Lanka? You’ll actually need three! Three-pronged UK sockets, two-pronged European sockets, and rounded three-pronged sockets (used in India and Nepal ) are all common in Sri Lanka.
- Hoppers are the go-to snack in Sri Lanka, and they absolutely cannot be missed. Made of fermented batter (usually rice flour or sourdough), the bowl-shaped dish is pan-fried and served with curry, relish or an egg.
Sri Lanka has seasonal weather so please do check up on best time to visit Sri Lanka before planning your tour.
Tours in Sri Lanka - Questions and Answers
Sri Lanka is a medium-risk country with moderate crime rates. Most travelers do not feel unsafe in the country. However, you should always be cautious while you are there. Crimes that tourists are most likely to encounter are pickpocketing and bag snatching, both of which are fairly common in Sri Lanka.
In addition to this, solo female travelers are at risk of sexual violence, which is why we always recommend choosing a group tour rather than exploring the country alone.
Your Sri Lanka tour price can vary greatly, depending on the length of the trip, the month you are traveling, and the accommodation and services that you wish to book. Two weeks in Sri Lanka , for example, can cost anywhere from around USD 800 to USD 2,500 per person.
If you are looking for something less expensive, you can opt for tours lasting between four to seven days that can be booked for USD 500 or less. However, please keep in mind that most tours do not include international flights, visa charges, and travel insurance, which you will have to factor into your budget.
Travelers heading out to discover Sri Lanka on their own (without a package tour), should be prepared to spend around USD 40 per person, per day on food and accommodation.
Sri Lanka is full of incredible sights and is certainly not a country to rush through. We suggest spending no less than five days in the country. However, if you have time, two weeks in Sri Lanka is ideal. For further guidance, check out our in-depth travel guide on how many days to spend in Sri Lanka.
Given that the country has numerous destinations worth exploring, we suggest that you plan a trip that allows you to stay in at least three destinations. Many travelers spend a night or two in Colombo since the capital city has an international airport along with some noteworthy sights.
Galle and Matara are probably the most touristy areas of the country with the best beaches. But if you are planning to include surfing in your itinerary, be sure to check out Arugam Bay on the east coast. And do not miss your chance to explore Kandy , a beautiful city surrounded by mountains, tea plantations, and lush rainforests.
Two weeks in Sri Lanka can cost anywhere from around USD 800 to USD 2,500 per person. When checking out trips online, make sure that you go through what your tour includes, as each trip has different inclusions and exclusions. For example, most group tours will cover all meals and accommodation and admission to the attractions listed on the itinerary. So, generally, you will need to bring enough cash for snacks, drinks, and any additional activities you wish to do.
To give you an idea, a cappuccino in a coffee shop is around USD 2, and a burger at McDonald’s costs USD 1.50 in Sri Lanka. Similarly, a beer in a restaurant can be had for between USD 1.50 and USD 3.
The Sri Lankan rupee is not a major currency. Therefore, we suggest that you exchange your money once you arrive to get the best rates. Although Sri Lanka boasts an incredible variety of street food, please make sure that your food is cooked thoroughly and in a clean place before tucking in to avoid stomach upsets. Similarly, since tap water is not safe to drink, we suggest buying bottled water throughout your stay in the country.
Also, make sure that you respect the culture and rules. For example, dress modestly and remove your shoes when visiting temples. And, if you are lucky enough to find some holiday romance, refrain from public displays of affection as they are frowned upon in some parts of Sri Lanka.
Sri Lanka is a year-round destination with a lot of sunny days and an average coastal temperature that hovers between 22°C and 32°C. However, the best time to visit the country depends on the destinations you wish to cover. It is best to take in the highlights of the country’s southwestern coast between December and April, before the monsoon kicks in, while the country’s east coast and areas to the north are best visited between May and September after the showers are gone. Learn more .
Given the geographical diversity that Sri Lanka has, travelers get the chance to pick from a variety of terrain during their stay in the country. For example, Sri Lanka’s central region is a hill country famous for its tea plantations and untouched natural beauty. For wildlife safaris, head to the country’s east, and if you are a beach lover, there are few destinations in the world that rival the sandy stretches along Sri Lanka’s south.
Furthermore, for those looking to surf, there are two popular surfing spots in the country. These are Hikkaduwa on the southwestern coast and Ahangama (or Arugam Bay) on the east.

The ferry service covers a distance of 50 kms.
What is the Best Time to Visit Sri Lanka?
The best time to visit Sri Lanka can be said to be almost all through the year, thanks to it being good weather in at least one or two of the regions of the country. Depending on which part of Sri Lanks you are visiting, you can plan your travels. Winter, however, remains most popular thanks to the amazing weather, myriads of festivals and of course the prospect of enjoying sunny yet cool days at the beach.
For all the beach babies out there, summer is a great time to visit the country. From February to April, warm weather and incessant sunshine will ensure you have a good time and get your tan on. In fact, it can get a bit too hot on the western and southern coasts and you should avoid the hotter hours of the day for any sightseeing that involve being outdoors, including the beach.
The short winter season of Sri Lanka is its high tourist season as well. With the rains coming to a halt finally, the weather is drier and cooler, ensuring that one can relax and enjoy the beaches and the mountains alike. There are plenty of festivals that one can enjoy in Sri Lanka during the winters, including Christmas and New Year’s. A lot of musical festivals and outdoor programs are also arranged here during the winters, especially in the coastal regions.
Although the rains might play spoilsport with your daily sightseeing plans, Sri Lanka in monsoons is a good place to be. There are two separate monsoons that affect the country, including the season from October to February and the season from April to September. You are sure to be surrounded by lush greenery and exotic foliage, and the weather will be cooler on low humidity days.

Duration: 7N/8D
Accommodation: Lodge
Experiences cherished: Wildlife safari, spotting the leopard, surf beaches, whale sighting
Come Back for: Nature, Eco Lodge
A vacation with my kid and wife is one of the most important things in life. There is nothing that can help us connect more than a holiday together. Since I prefer non-commercialized and secluded destinations, we decided to unravel the beauty of Sri Lanka this time. Getting a tailor-made package for our family vacation seemed impossible till I came across TravelTriangle. Keeping our budget in mind, tour packages for Sri Lanka from TravelTriangle were not only very thrilling but also very economical. Our trip to Sri Lanka helped us get closer to mother nature. Lodging in the heart of a forest with water streaming next to your hut is an experience that I would recommend everyone to gain at least once. Witnessing the land wildlife in Yala National Park and aquatic wildlife in Merissa was a cherry on top to this vacation. Having our hotel located right next to a beach in Bentota fulfilled our need of peace and relaxation. Nothing better than a day well spent at a picturesque beach with the family. Before leaving the country, we spent one full day shopping in the metropolitan city, Colombo. It was one trip that made us come closer to each other as a family and even more closer to the ever so beautiful mother nature.

Mullaitivu man claims to be tallest in Sri Lanka
29 April 2024 08:21 am - 15 - {{hitsCtrl.values.hits}}
According to BBC Sinhala Service, Gunasingham Kasenthiran, a former cadre of the proscribed Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) who lives in Kaiveli, Puthukudiruppu is seven feet two inches tall.
He laments that he has to face numerous problems due to his abnormal height. Nowhere in Sri Lanka could he find footwear that matches the length of his feet and he has been forced to get them from foreign countries, he states.
Kasenthiran who is the father of two children says that he cannot travel in a bus unless he gets a seat in it and he is forced to make a prior booking for a seat if he travels in a long distance bus.
A trishaw driver by profession, Kasenthiran has to drive his vehicle bending his neck.

COLOMBO, Sri Lanka (AP) — A race car veered off the track during a competition in Sri Lanka on Sunday and rammed into a crowd of spectators and race officials, killing seven people and injuring 20 others, officials said.
Thousands of spectators looked on as the mishap took place during a race in the town of Diyatalawa in the tea-growing central hills, about 180 kilometers (110 miles) east of the capital Colombo.
It wasn’t immediately clear what caused the mishap.
Police spokesman Nihal Thalduwa said one of the cars veered off the track and crashed into spectators and officials of the event. Seven people, including four officials, were killed and another 20 were being treated at a hospital, said Thalduwa. He said three of the injured were in critical condition.
Thalduwa said police have launched an investigation into the accident, which was the 17th out of 24 events scheduled. The race was suspended after the accident.
About 45,000 spectators had gathered at the race circuit at a Sri Lankan military academy. The event was organized by the Sri Lankan army and Sri Lanka Automobile Sports.
