Most British travellers come to Sri Lanka for 10 to 14 nights. That length lets you do two or three regions deeply rather than four or five lightly — and it transforms a holiday into a proper journey.
Our most-booked holiday combines the hill country, a Yala safari and the southern beaches. Couples on honeymoon swap Yala for a third hill-country night. Families add Anantara Tangalle for a beach finale with kids' clubs.
Every holiday package includes a private chauffeur-guide, all transfers, and at least one Serendib signature experience per region.
What's included
- Private chauffeur and air-conditioned vehicle

Questions
What's included in a Sri Lanka holiday package?
Accommodation, private chauffeur-guide, all transfers, daily breakfast, and signature experiences per region. Flights are quoted separately to give you airline and seat flexibility.
How long should a Sri Lanka holiday be?
Ten nights is the sweet spot for British travellers — long enough to do two or three regions properly, short enough to keep within standard annual leave.
