Itinerary
Day 1: Colombo
Welcome to Colombo!
Meet your driver on arrival at Colombo Airport for a private transfer to your hotel. Check-in and rest of the day at leisure.
Cosmopolitan Colombo, gateway to the wonder of Sri Lanka, boasts a rich colonial heritage, featuring a melting pot of races, religions and cultures. A city of contrasts, it is both an eclectic mix of shiny hotels and swanky office blocks, neighbouring beautiful red-tiled colonial-era buildings. Sprawling bustling street markets brim with fragrant spices, colourful silks, cottons and fresh fruit and vegetables.

Sigiriya is one of three sacred cities of the Cultural Triangle, it is also the most impressive because the fortress and the palace of King Kasyapa it houses have been built on a huge rock. An inevitable climb in Sri Lanka is therefore to climb the steps to reach the top of the rock, where there are some ruins of less interest (since there doesn’t remain much) but also an absolutely beautiful view.
