14-Day Grand Sri Lanka Private Tour
A flexible 14-day private Sri Lanka tour itinerary covering the Cultural Triangle, Kandy, tea country, wildlife, Galle, and the south coast.
Tour overview
A flexible way to experience this route
Two weeks gives a first-time visitor enough room to connect Sri Lanka’s ancient cities, hill country, wildlife, and southern coast with fewer rushed transfers. This route uses several two-night stays and can be reversed when flights or seasonal conditions make that more sensible.
The itinerary is private and tailor-made. We use your travel dates, interests, mobility needs, room preferences, and budget to turn this sample into a detailed proposal.

Frequently asked questions
Is fourteen days enough for Sri Lanka?
Fourteen days is a useful first-trip length for combining culture, hills, wildlife, and coast without trying to visit every region.
Can the route run in reverse?
Yes. Flight times, weather, hotel availability, and your preferred beach region can make a reverse route more practical.
