Overview
Sri Lanka round trip from India overview
This private Sri Lanka round trip from India is planned for a short holiday after a quick flight to Colombo: the Temple of the Tooth in Kandy, the cool tea hills of Nuwara Eliya with the Seetha Amman and Ramboda Hanuman temples, two nights on Bentota beach with a day in Galle, and a last evening of shopping in Colombo.
Drives are kept short, there is no internal flight, and vegetarian food is easy to find all the way. For a pilgrimage route, see our Ramayana tours in Sri Lanka, or compare every route on our Sri Lanka round tours page.

Before you book
What is the price of this round trip from India?
We send a personalised quote, because the price depends on your hotels, the vehicle and the number of travellers. Your private car, driver and five nights with breakfast are included; flights, entrance tickets and boat rides are not.
How do we get to Sri Lanka from India?
There are direct flights to Colombo from Chennai, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Kochi and other cities, most under two hours from South India. Your driver meets you at the airport.
Do Indian travellers need a visa for Sri Lanka?
Visa rules for Indian passport holders change from time to time, so please check the official Sri Lanka ETA website before you book. We are happy to help with any questions.
Is vegetarian food available?
Yes. Vegetarian food is easy to find across Sri Lanka, and South Indian dishes are common. Tell us if you need pure vegetarian or Jain meals and we choose hotels that can provide them.
Can we add more days or Ramayana sites?
Yes. Add Sigiriya and Dambulla, Ella, or more Ramayana places such as Ravana Falls and Divurumpola. Every trip is private and fully customisable.
