Your 15-day Sri Lanka and Maldives adventure begins in Colombo, the largest city and capital of Sri Lanka. From here, you will embark on a captivating and cultural journey into the country's past by visiting five of its six cultural UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Begin in the town of Dambulla and explore the country's most well-preserved cave temple complex with 157 statues and ancient Buddhist murals dating back to the 1st century BC. Continue to the 11th-century ruins of the Royal Palace of King Parakramabahu I and the iconic Gal Vihara sculptures at the ancient city of Polonnaruwa before travelling to the Sigiriya rock fortress.

Journey to the city of Kandy and visit the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic, where the tooth of Gautama Buddha is enshrined. Spend a day exploring the quaint hillside village of Ella on one of the many leisurely treks through local plantations, temples, and waterfalls or take a short walk through the jungle to the Nine Arches Bridge to see one of the most iconic pieces of 20th-century colonial architecture.
