Activities to do in Sri Lanka
Due to the islands diverse and varied landscape there are plenty of fun activities to do in Sri Lanka.
As you may expect from an island surrounded by the warm and calm waters of the Indian Ocean, water sports are a popular activity in Sri Lanka, as are treks, biking and guided tours of the unspoilt scenery – whether it be trekking in the majestic misty mountains or a guided tour of one of the renowned tea estates Sri Lanka is famous for.
Balloon trips are a fantastic way to get a bird’s eye view of the island, with most trips taking place over the three main cultural sites of Sri Lanka – Dambulla and Sigiriya, the so called cultural triangle.
If you’re a sports fan be sure to plan the date of your Sri Lanka Holiday to coincide with when the national cricket team is in action, an occasion of tremendous national passion, and not to be missed! We regularly get requests for tailor-made tours of Sri Lanka incorporating the thrill of one-day or Twenty20 matches with the other various sites and activities Sri Lanka has to offer.
If swinging a golf club is more your forte there are three great courses on the island located in Kandy, Nuwara Eliya and Colombo which can also be included in a tailor-made Sri Lanka Holiday.
