001 What should I pack for a Sri Lankan trip?

Lightweight clothing (linen and cotton breathe best), strong sunscreen, insect repellent, a wide-brimmed hat, comfortable walking shoes for temples and trails, and a universal travel adapter. Modest layers help when visiting religious sites.

002 When is the best time to visit Sri Lanka?

The west and south coast and the hill country are at their best between December and March. The east coast (Trincomalee, Pasikuda, Arugam Bay) shines from April to September. Two coasts, two seasons — we plan around the right one for you.

003 Is Sri Lanka a good destination for a wedding?

Absolutely. From cliff-top resorts in the south to Geoffrey-Bawa-designed retreats and tea estate villas, we curate intimate destination weddings with full coordination of venue, ceremony, photography and guest logistics.

004 What is the climate like?

Tropical, with average temperatures of 27–28°C across most of the country and slightly cooler in the highlands. Humidity stays high year-round; expect short, refreshing showers even in dry season.

005 Do I need a visa?

Most visitors enter on an ETA (Electronic Travel Authorization) — typically a 30-day double entry. We can guide you through the application as part of your trip planning.

006 Which destinations are most popular?

Highlights include the Hill Country (Ella, Nuwara Eliya), Colombo and Negombo, Galle and the southern beaches, Yala and the wildlife parks, and the Cultural Triangle (Sigiriya, Anuradhapura, Polonnaruwa).

007 What watersports can I try?

Surfing on the south and east coasts, scuba diving and snorkelling, kite surfing in Kalpitiya, deep-sea fishing, and white-water rafting in Kitulgala. We arrange certified instructors for every level.

008 Are vegan and vegetarian options easy to find?

Yes — Sri Lankan cuisine is deeply plant-friendly. Coconut-based curries, jackfruit, dhal, hoppers and tropical produce make for incredible vegan dining everywhere we send you.

009 Is Sri Lanka good for a honeymoon?

It is one of the finest honeymoon destinations in Southeast Asia. Picture private plunge pools above the ocean, candle-lit dinners on tea-estate verandahs, and sunsets that linger.

010 How do I choose the right travel package?

Choose a partner who listens. We design every itinerary around how you like to travel — pace, comfort, food, interests — and refine until it feels unmistakably yours.
