1. What is the Story of this itinerary?

Sri Lanka came into our portfolio unexpectedly in 2012.
A guest who couldn’t find hotel availability in Andaman accepted our suggestion to visit Sri Lanka instead — opening an exciting new chapter for us.

We quickly recognised how holiday friendly Sri Lanka is: gentle weather, short drives, rich culture.

Since then, it has become one of our most recommended and loved destinations.
