Travel tips for your trip to Sri Lanka Hotel Maps Famous Places in Sri Lanka helps you to make your trip to Sri Lanka in the holiday a Splendid One


When you want the beach and you want it bad, few places offer as much scenic beauty as a Sri Lanka holiday. Rich with animal and plant life, this tiny island is a favourite for international travellers who expect the best and want it for less. High priced holidays are often a disappointment, especially when you do not get hat you paid for. However, Sri Lanka delivers every time with a first class beachfront holiday at rock bottom rates.


Sri Lanka foliage, wildlife and beaches are the real star of the show; however, the old districts of Columbo make for a great day at the shops with unique boutiques and handicraft wares. Some of the target areas for tourism and trade include 2nd Cross Street in Pettah for one of a kind jewellery and hard to find items. Nearby 5th Cross Street has its own kind of mystery with an array of herbal and healing medicines for health and well being.


The Abhayagiri Museum is worth a stop to admire the fine relics used by Chinese Buddhists to include an interesting collection of jewellery, pottery and temple wares of the most unique construction. The Columbo National Museum houses a rare collection of paintings and statuary dating back 2500 years, with excellent examples of the way Sri Lanka life has changed over the years. Making your way to the museum treasures is half the fun of getting there when you take the local mode of transport in a trishaw. This three wheeled vehicle can be lightning-fast, so ask your driver to hit the brakes and take the scenic route. Trishaw riding is efficient and economical, saving you money and a wait for a motorized taxi, and the only way to go when in Sri Lanka.

Sri Lanka all inclusive holidays are the number one way to visit this island paradise, with all the major travel expenses trimmed down to best bargain rates. The all inclusive plan covers the cost of international airfare, your roundtrip airport transfers and the type of accommodation you wish to book and takes care of most of your meals. Resort style Sri Lanka all inclusive holidays also provide free use of the attractions and activities onsite to include water sports equipment, live entertainment and select alcoholic beverages.

Sri Lanka is warm and tropical with best weather conditions from the end of March until November. Heavy rains and monsoons can strike at any time from December through early March, and although quite windy, does not necessarily count you out for a holiday. Booking your Sri Lanka holidays should be done as early as possible to ensure you get your first choice of accommodation offered at the price you want to pay. However, online travel brokers offer some tremendous deals for late holiday booking if you can pack your case and fly out the door on short notice. Sri Lanka holidays are cheap, easy to book and take you to one of the most scenic regions in South Asia. Not to be undersold, the all inclusive Sri Lanka holiday is ideal for the seasoned traveller to have it all for one low price.
