Holidays To Colombo · Asia
Colombo
Sri Lanka · 1 night
Holidays in Sri Lanka, surrounded by the Indian Ocean and carpeted in lush rainforest, are high on your bucket list. Package holidays in Sri Lanka provide excellent value for money. Whether you're looking for jungle adventures or tropical beaches, this small island nation has something for everyone. Ancient cities are densely packed with Buddhist temples, and wild elephants roam the national parks. There are friendly faces, diverse cultures, and exotic lands ripe for memory making. Colombo, a busy port city on Sri Lanka's west coast, is the island's commercial capital. Its streets are bustling with vibrant shops and markets, and temples and mosques reflect the city's multicultural heritage. Whereas it was once a town you had to tolerate on your way to the beach, it is now a popular and deserving destination. Colombo comes to life as the streets fill with people wearing colourful saris and parasols and bustling along streets bathed in sunlight. Tuk-tuks weave through the traffic, their passengers chatting animatedly as they disappear around corners, and street vendors peddle their wares as people disappear into the city's plethora of restaurants.

Holidays To Nuwara Eliya · Asia
Nuwara Eliya
Sri Lanka · 1 night
This aristocratic highland enclave, known as 'Little England,' has a rose-tinted, vaguely British-country-village feeling, with colonial-era bungalows, Tudor-style hotels, well-kept hedgerows, and attractive gardens. Indeed, Nuwara Eliya was formerly the preferred cool-climate retreat for Sri Lanka's tea industry's hard-working and hard-drinking English and Scottish pioneers. Although a recent construction boom has spoiled the scene, and the dusty and congested city centre is a typical Sri Lankan urban tangle, Nuwara Eliya is still a great place to unwind for a few days. Tea estates meticulously kept vegetable plots, and rugged hills dot the surrounding area, which is lush and beautiful. Spend a stay in one of Nuwara Eliya's colonial hotels, play a round of golf or a few frames of billiards, and take in the town's distinctive past. Around Nuwara Eliya, you'll find mock-Tudor buildings, hills draped in rich green tea plantations, and Horton Plains National Park. Around Nuwara Eliya, you'll find mock-Tudor buildings, hills draped in rich green tea plantations, and Horton Plains National Park. Nuwara Eliya is a green community with a British accent in the heart of Sri Lanka's tea heartland. Tea bushes are beautifully groomed on almost every slope. The mock-Tudor buildings and velvety golf courses harken back to when this was the British's favourite getaway after defeating the Kandyan Kingdom and gaining control of Sri Lanka. The location is less than three hours north of Kandy, and while many people like to travel by rail, we can also arrange for you to travel by automobile, which will allow you to take side trips with time to pause and take in the scenery at your leisure.
