Experience South and Hills by Motorhome (5 Days)

About this experience

This five-day tour covers Sri Lanka's hill country and south coast in a private motorhome, with a Lakpura chauffeur guide driving throughout. The route runs from Colombo up to Kandy and Nuwara Eliya, down through Ella to the southern coast at Kirinda, and back to Colombo for departure, taking in temple architecture, waterfalls, tea country scenery and a national park safari along the way.

Travellers see the Temple of the Tooth Relic in Kandy, the Ramboda Falls on the road to Nuwara Eliya, and Ella's tea fields, Little Adam's Peak, the Nine Arches Bridge and Demodara railway station. The trip ends with a jeep safari in Yala National Park before the drive back to Colombo for the flight home.

Travelling by motorhome keeps the pace flexible between stops, with the chauffeur guide handling the driving across the hill and coastal roads.
