Travel itinerary
Flight to Sri Lanka
Our destination is Sri Lanka, a place mainly inhabited by Buddhists but also Christians and Muslims. Until 2009, Sri Lanka struggled with a devastating civil war. Today, however, it offers relaxation and wonderful leisure with unforgettable memories.
A day in travel.
Today is a day in travel. Excited to see what Sri Lanka has to offer us.
Beruwala
Arrival in the paradise of Sri Lanka and transfer to Beruwala. Accommodation at the hotel and free time. Beruwala is a town with a small, picturesque beach featuring soft, light sand that provides comfortable access to the water. However, there may be sharp rocks and coral fragments on the seabed from the nearby coral reef.
Galle Fort
Today, we will visit the Turtle Hatchery, a conservation center that cares for newly hatched turtles and adults that have been rescued from the sea due to injuries. One of the most unique areas in the center is where turtles lay their eggs.
Afterward, we will head to the Dutch fort of Galle. It is the best-preserved colonial town in Sri Lanka. We will also visit Yala National Park, famous for its leopard population and other wildlife. Free time. Overnight stay at Chaarya Resort & Spa.
Ravana Waterfall
After breakfast, we will head to Ella to see Ravana Falls. According to legend, Ravana kidnapped Princess Sita and hid her in the caves behind this waterfall.
Next, we will trek to the summit of Adam’s Peak and then visit the Nine Arch Bridge. This bridge was built to connect two mountains during the construction of the Badulla-Colombo railway line. It is one of the finest examples of colonial-era railway construction in the country.
