Kandy: 6 Nights of Sri Lanka’S Spiritual Heart

7 Days 6 Nights

Trade the everyday for 6 Nights in Kandy, where Sri Lanka's spiritual heart, serene and ceremonial gives way to genuinely memorable moments. From Temple of the Tooth

Kandy — Ground Package

This land-only package puts Kandy front and centre over 6 Nights. Arrive on your own schedule and terms; from the moment you touch down, everything on the ground is taken care of.

Experiences That Define the Trip

The 7-day programme opens with Temple of the Tooth Relic — an immediate immersion in what makes Kandy distinct. Subsequent days explore Peradeniya Botanical Gardens and leave generous space to discover the quieter side: neighbourhood restaurants, unmarked viewpoints, and the conversations that happen when you are not rushing. The route also takes in Nuwara Eliya and Bentota, rounding out the experience beautifully.

Accommodation

You will be based at Swiss Residence, Araliya Red Nuwara Eliya, Heritance Ahungalla throughout — five-star-star properties positioned to keep the city's best within easy reach.

Dining

Daily breakfast is part of every day. Kandy is generous with food — rice and curry buffets, wood-apple juice and freshly made hoppers — and your hotels' locations mean the best local eating is never far.

Package Inclusions

Five-star-star accommodation, daily breakfast and activity passes to the top sights. This is a complete land experience; book your own meet us at the arrivals exit. The on-ground experience is identical to the full package — same hotels, same itinerary, same level of care. All you add is the plane ticket.
