Sri Lanka tour packages from Kochi

Yes. Four or five nights gives you Kandy, the tea hills and a beach. Flights are short, so little time is lost.

Yes, with one or two more nights in the cultural triangle for the rock fortress and the cave temples at Dambulla.

It can be, but hotels cook to taste, and rice and curry, hoppers and seafood are easy to enjoy. Vegetarian food is everywhere.

Yes. Both our trips suit couples: the cool tea hills first, then beach nights in Bentota, with a private car and English-speaking driver-guide throughout. December to March is the dry season on the west coast. From May to September, we can move the beach nights to the sunny east coast.

Yes. Our five-night trip stops at the Ramboda Hanuman temple in the hills, where a 16-foot granite Hanuman marks the belief that Hanuman searched for Sita here. Near Nuwara Eliya, the Seetha Amman Temple, the best-known stop on the Ramayana trail, can be added to your day there. Ask us about a longer Ramayana trail.

Our trips use a private car, and a train ride can be added. Trains now run from Nanu Oya, the station for Nuwara Eliya, to Ella, about two and a half to three hours through tea estates. The stretch from Kandy is closed for repairs after the 2025 cyclone, so we drive you from Kandy to Nanu Oya to join the train. Seats should be reserved ahead, and going on to Ella needs at least one extra night.

Yes. Both trips spend a day in Nuwara Eliya, with a visit to a tea estate and factory and a boat ride on Gregory Lake. The town is 1,868 metres up and cool all year, so pack a light jacket or sweater.

The money is the Sri Lankan rupee. ATMs are common in towns, and most mid-range and top hotels take cards. Since February 2024, UPI apps work at many shops that accept LankaQR. Keep small notes for small shops, and change spare rupees back at the bank counters at the airport before you fly; keep your passport handy.

The Christmas break is ideal for the hills and the west-coast beaches, which are dry from December to March. The April–May summer break works too, warm by the sea and cool in Nuwara Eliya. In the Onam break the west coast is wetter, and we can move the beach nights to the east coast, which is dry then. Short flights make it a good choice for the Pooja break too.

Our 2 Sri Lanka trips start at ₹44,999 per person, twin sharing (Sri Lanka Hills & Beach, 4 nights), and go up to ₹51,999 for Sri Lanka: Kandy, Nuwara Eliya & Bentota (5 nights).
