7-Day Explorer Tour
Trip Overview
The 7-Day Explorer combines Sri Lanka's cultural heartland with a beautiful coastal finish — making it the ideal romantic or couples package. After exploring the ancient wonders of the Cultural Triangle and Kandy's sacred temples, the journey concludes with two unforgettable days on the southern coast.
Bentota's golden beach, the Madu Ganga river safari by boat, and the heartwarming turtle conservation experience at Kosgoda make this the perfect itinerary for couples, honeymooners, and those seeking that perfect balance of culture and coast. Note: this tour is also our best match for adding the signature sunrise kayaking experience as an add-on.
