Explore
In Sri Lanka we have urban jungles as well as natural ones with wild life. To discover all that Sri Lanka has to offer, you will need a guide to help you explore. That’s here as we adventure to the known and unknown, trekking through hill country tea estates, travelling on slow-moving local trains though seaside villages, or braving a journey by bus. We review river cruises, whale watching, domestic flights, zip-gliding and wander around Galle Fort, explore the scenic countryside and visit unusual museums, discover village pageants and reveal so much you never knew about Sri Lanka and can explore when you visit this “land like no other.”
