Join me, Amy of The Cotour, on this adventure through amazing Sri Lanka. Blend wellness and touring in the itinerary below.
Sri Lanka’s history is packed with ancient civilizations and a mix of cultures from East and West. You’ll find a lively mix of festivals, ceremonies, and events.
This island is full of life, with its six world heritage sites: Galle, Kandy, Sigiriya, Anuradhapura, Polonnaruva, and the Dambulla Cave Temple.
Think stunning beaches, gorgeous landscapes, wetlands, mountains, rivers, waterfalls, and loads of wildlife.
You’ll see ancient cities, colonial forts, arts, crafts, and big celebrations.
Sri Lanka’s people are from different ethnicities and religions, and they’re known for being super friendly and welcoming. I look forward to sharing amazing Sri Lanka with you.
This tour is perfect for solo travellers, friends, or couples. Amy of The Cotour will be your guide, with help from local experts. You'll get to see and experience a lot of what Sri Lanka has to offer: from UNESCO World Heritage sites, monuments, temples, and markets, to two safaris at Yala National Park (different animals come out at different times of the day-animals often seen here include Sri Lankan Leopards, Sri Lankan Elephants, Sri Lankan Sloth Bear, Water Buffalo and many more, ). You'll also spend five nights at the amazing Santani Wellness Resort (voted Sri Lanka's best Wellness Spa and Asia's best Wellness Spa in 2024), where you can choose your own Wellness Package. This tour has it all – a great mix of experiences to nourish your mind, body, and soul!
