From tea hills to golden sands, Buddhist temples to safari parks, explore this diverse island with someone who knows it inside out

Uncover the highlights of Sri Lanka, a paradise of tea plantations, verdant mountains, safari parks and golden coastlines. Guided by a local tour leader, we see why this teardrop-shaped island is so special: ancient Buddhist temples, the mighty rock fortress of Sigiriya, hill towns of Kandy and Nuwara Eliya, wildlife of Yala National Park (home to one of the highest concentrations of leopards in the world), and palm-fringed beaches of the south coast. As you will discover, Sri Lanka offers incredible variety, despite its small size, which is made extra special by a laid-back atmosphere, tasty cuisine and hospitable people.

Sustainability and Impact

As a certified B Corp, we’re on a mission to improve our social and environmental impact across all our adventures.

We do this through our innovative Thriving Nature, Thriving People plan.

This ‘nature positive’ approach is designed to help nature and communities thrive in harmony through practical solutions, such as reducing carbon and waste on our trips, supporting conservation projects through the Exodus Adventure Travels Foundation, and rewilding 100 square metres for every Exodus traveller.

You’ll also find Thriving Nature, Thriving People moments across our trips. These experiences are often a highlight of your adventure, while also benefiting the natural world or local communities.

On this trip, we:

  • Explore the Udawalawe Elephant Transit Home, where the team rehabilitates orphaned and sick elephants ready for a return to the wild
  • Visit the Kalu farmhouse for an immerse chance to experience rural family life, eating local snacks and enjoying traditional Sri Lankan games
  • Dine under the boughs of a bayan tree in Girithale, enjoying authentic Sri Lankan dishes cooked by a local family, which helps to support their small business
