Boutique Ceylon Tour
- 14 Days / 13 Nights
Boutique Ceylon is a classic but leisurely journey around the interesting most and beautiful parts of the island. Experience the ancient heritage of the cultural triangle, the tea plantations and misty mountains of the southern highlands, and finally the glorious beaches of the south coast. We have selected stylish accommodation including lifestyle boutique colonial hotels, bungalows, and a beach side villa – all of which will make this a truly unforgettable holiday.
DAY 1 & 2: ARRIVAL
The quality of your accommodation is immediately apparent. The Wallawwa might be an `airport hotel’ in that it is close to the airport, but this converted manor house has immediately been hailed for its refinement and tranquility.
DAY 3,4 & 5: CULTURAL TRIANGLE
Discover the fascinating ruins of Anuradhapura – Sri Lanka’s first capital and the greatest monastic city of the ancient world. Stay at Ulagalla Resort set amidst 58 acres of lush woodland, paddy fields and the Ulagalla reservoir.
DAY 6 & 7: KANDY
The Kandy House is a brilliant small boutique hotel capable of offering stylish and private accommodation, personal service, and delicious food – all in a stunning natural setting. It is a tasteful base for a look around Kandy. Play Victoria golf club and visit the Temple of the Tooth.
DAY 8 & 9: HILL COUNTRY
Travel into the southern highlands and stay at a bungalow in the acclaimed Tea trails collection. Though the quality service may remove your ambitions to move further afield, you could kayak and mountain bike around the reservoirs of Castlereagh and Maskeliya.
DAY 10,11 & 12: SOUTH COAST
Leave the cool highlands and twist your way down to the Deep South to Tangalle. Road travel can be a long and tiring. You have the option of hopping on board a helicopter directly from the Tea Trails to Tangalle. Stay at the Last House, an exquisite boutique hotel fronting Tangalle Bay.
DAY 13 & 14: GALLE COAST
Stay your final two nights at the Galle Fort hotel set within Galle’s 17 C Dutch Fort. Explore this historic walled city and enjoy the turquoise seas off the Galle Coast. Head directly to the airport from Galle.
