Itinerary

Arrival at Colombo International Airport Here, you will be met by a representative of Anbruce Travels. After the formalities at the airport, you will be escorted to your air-conditioned vehicle. Next, transfer to your hotel in Habarana and check-in to hotel to stay at leisure the rest of the day.
Day 2 Habarana
In Habarana , explore the ancient Sigiriya Rock Fortress, a UNESCO World Heritage Site built by King Kashyapa. This impressive rock rises 200 meters above the plains, with ancient moats and gardens surrounding its base & climb to Pidurangala rock and witness the great sunset . You’ll also visit the Dambulla Cave Temple, the largest and best-preserved cave temple in Sri Lanka, featuring Buddha statues and colorful paintings. Visit ancient city in Polonnaruwa is known to be King Parakrama Bahu – The Great. The remains of the Royal Citadel council chamber, prince’s bathing pool and the Gal Vihare, a stone temple with its colossal sculptures of the Buddha in a quiet grove of trees as well as the still functioning Parakrama Samudra, a man-made reservoir, larger than our Colombo harbor, are on easy distance from each other. The new museum has an excellent scale model of the ancient city as it was.
Day 3,4 Kandy
After the breakfast at hotel you’ll transfer to kandy. In Kandy, you’ll explore the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic, a revered Buddhist site, a Gem Museum, and enjoy a traditional Cultural Dance Show in the evening. Stage 1 of the Pekoe Trail is a beautiful introduction to Sri Lanka’s central highlands. The hike begins in Hanthana, just outside Kandy, winding through lush tea plantations, pine forests, and misty mountain ridges.
The path is a mix of village footpaths, tea estate roads, and natural trails. Along the way, you’ll pass tea pickers at work, encounter local wildlife, and catch panoramic views of rolling hills that seem to stretch endlessly.
Day 5,6 Ella
The journey began with a breathtaking train ride through Sri Lanka’s lush hill country, where the landscape unfolded like a dream — endless green tea plantations, mist-covered valleys, and cascading waterfalls around every bend. The open doors and windows of the train allowed the cool mountain breeze and scent of fresh tea leaves to sweep in, making the ride feel like a scene from a postcard. After arriving in Ella, we set off on a hike to Mini Adam’s Peak. The trail was gentle and scenic, I was rewarded with a sweeping vista of rolling hills, deep valleys, and the distant peaks of the central highlands — a moment of peace and awe. Later, you will make your way to the iconic Nine Arch Bridge, one of Sri Lanka’s most photographed landmarks. Framed by dense jungle and echoing with the distant sounds of birds and rustling leaves, the bridge is a marvel of colonial-era engineering. As the train crossed it slowly, I stood watching from a nearby viewpoint, soaking in the magic of it all.
Day 7 Tissamaharama
Yala National Park is the most visited and second largest national park in Sri Lanka, renowned for its vibrant wildlife, including elephants, monkeys, and leopards. The park’s varied landscapes of dry woodlands and grasslands create a stunning backdrop for activities such as jeep safaris, bird watching, and nature photography. With a rich array of over 200 bird species, it’s a paradise for birdwatchers. Visitors can also enjoy luxury camping experiences within the park.
Day 8,9,10 Dickwella
Begin your day with a visit to the iconic Coconut Tree Hill in Mirissa — a stunning cliffside dotted with tall, swaying palm trees overlooking the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean. It’s the perfect spot for breathtaking views, peaceful reflection, and those picture-perfect moments.
Next, head to the historic city of Galle, where you’ll explore the legendary Galle Fort — a UNESCO World Heritage Site blending rich colonial history with vibrant local culture. As the sun begins to set, enjoy a peaceful walk along the ramparts of the Dutch Fort, with golden light casting a warm glow on the old stone walls, the ocean stretching out beyond.
The rest of your days are left unscheduled, giving you the freedom to relax, explore at your own pace, or simply soak in the tropical serenity.
