The Tour :

We have hand-picked some of the most romantic sights scattered across the hill-country to put together an amazing 02-week long itinerary for those who seek tranquility, solitude, adventure and beauty of the nature. Current program covers themes from adventure, nature, wildlife and heritage.

Best For :

Honeymooners, young couples, nature lovers and adventure seekers. If climbing Adam’s Peak or the rock temple in Mulgirigala or paddling whitewater is going to be physically too demanding for you, we can replace them with something mild (or skip completely).

Wheelchair Accessibility :

Inaccessible.

When to go :

December to May is the mountain-climbing season for Adam’s Peak. The shrine at the summit is closed for the rest of the year and it rains around this area for a few months. The rainwater gushing down the mountain can easily knock you off your feet. If you are a hardcore adventure seeker, probably off season is something you would want to try out! Apart from Adam’s Peak (not to be confused with Little Adam’s Peak in Ella, though we do both in this itinerary) rest of the tour is doable throughout the year.

Strenuousness :

Only 02 advanced activities. The rest don’t really require efforts at all.

Highlights:

  • Lipton's Seat - Sir Thomas Lipton's Lookout Point
  • Sightseeing in Kandy - UNESCO World Heritage Site
  • Climbing Adam's Peak Mountain - UNESCO World Heritage
  • Climbing Mulgirigala Rock Monastery
  • Devon, St Claire & Ravana Waterfalls
  • Scenic Train Ride from Nanu Oya to Ella
  • Beach break in Bentota
  • Whitewater rafting in Kitulgala
  • Jeep Safari in Udawalawe National Park
  • Hiking Little Adam's Peak in Ella
