Head 3.5 hours northeast to Water Garden Sigiriya, in the heart of the Cultural Triangle. En-route you'll visit the Dambulla Cave Temples which is a unique UNESCO Heritage Site with a huge number of golden Buddha statues inside.

Today you will visit 2 UNESCO Heritage Sites: this morning you'll climb the Sigiriya Lion's Rock and this afternoon you'll explore the ancient city ruins at Polonnaruwa.

Day 5

Set off 2.5 hours south to Kandy today and visit the Royal Botanical Gardens of Peradeniya and Temple of the Tooth Relic. We recommend you stay at Stone House or Elephant Stables, both just a 15 min drive from the busy city centre.

Day 6

This morning your chauffeur guide will take you to the train station where you will board your train, which will take you into the luminous tea country. The train journey normally takes around 2 hours and is a real highlight in Sri Lanka as you pass through villages and soaring hills.

This is our most indulgent and grown up trip; it aims to showcase Sri Lanka’s historic, natural and cultural highlights, whilst staying in the most glorious boutique accommodation. From spoiling pool suites in the ancient cities to classic and luxurious colonial bungalows in the tea plantations, from eclectic boutique suites in Kandy to eye popping luxury on the coast, it really has romance and luxury covered. To cut down travelling time a domestic sea plane journey is included which is an experience in itself. If you’ve got the budget and love a bit of style, look no further. This is also an ideal honeymoon.
