Private tour itineraries across Sri Lanka

Six ready-made routes from a three day weekend to a fourteen day grand tour. Each one is private, guided, and a starting point rather than a fixed product.

Sigiriya rock fortress seen across the jungle from Pidurangala Rock
Most booked

8 days

Private guided

One week, the whole island. Ancient rock fortresses, a temple that holds a relic of the Buddha, tea country by rail, leopards at dawn and a Dutch fort at sunset.

£845

per person

A luxury villa terrace in the tropics
Signature

10 days

Private luxury

Ten days across the island staying only in houses with a story: Bawa-designed villas, a tea planter’s bungalow above the clouds, a merchant house inside Galle Fort.

£2,390

A Buddhist temple in Sri Lanka
Pilgrimage

9 days

The full Ramayana trail across Sri Lanka: Ashok Vatika, Seetha Amman, Ravana’s caves, Divurumpola and the Munneswaram temples, guided by someone who knows the verses.

£920

per person

Buddha images inside the Dambulla golden cave temples
Stopover favourite

4 days

Four days built around the Cultural Triangle and Kandy: the highest concentration of UNESCO sites on the island, with an elephant safari in the middle.

£395

per person

A villager working a paddy field in rural Sri Lanka
Weekend break

3 days

Private guided

Two nights, three days, and the essential island: a rock fortress, a cave temple, an elephant herd and a hill capital that has held its relic for four centuries.

£285

per person

Palms leaning over a tropical beach
Grand tour

14 days

Private guided

Fourteen days is the length at which Sri Lanka stops being a checklist. Ancient cities, tea country, the east coast reef, leopards, whales, and a week’s worth of beach.

£1,590

per person

None of these quite right? Around two-thirds of our guests travel on a route we build from scratch.

Rated 5 out of 5

We were nervous about booking direct rather than through a UK operator. Dilshan answered every one of my fourteen emails within a few hours, changed the itinerary twice at no cost, and our driver Sunil became the best part of the trip. The Yala morning alone was worth the flight.

Ten days, no wasted hours, and not one hotel we would not return to. The tea bungalow above Nuwara Eliya was extraordinary. They also told us honestly when something was not worth doing, which is rare and made us trust everything else.

We travelled with a six-year-old and a nine-year-old. Ceylon Lanka Trails rebuilt the standard eight-day route around shorter drives and a pool every afternoon. Our children still talk about the bullock cart. Excellent value compared to the Dutch operators we quoted.
