A Different Sri Lanka

This itinerary is designed for travellers who have already seen the standard Sigiriya-Kandy-Ella-Galle route online and want something more distinctive.

It combines:

Culture + Mountains + Tea + Wildlife + Rainforest + Coast

SCG's itinerary uses that successful thematic direction but is independently written and adapted to our private vehicle-and-driver model.

You can:

• Add Sigiriya
• Add Polonnaruwa
• Remove Kurunegala
• Spend longer in Kandy
• Add more walking
• Reduce trekking
• Add another night in Nuwara Eliya
• Replace Udawalawe
• Remove Sinharaja
• Add more coast
• Finish at Bentota
• Use your own hotels
• Request a chauffeur guide
• Change the vehicle category
• Extend to 16, 18 or 21 days
