In Depth Sri Lanka
For those with more time to spare, this 3-weeker is our ultimate island itinerary. Distinctive experiences and tucked away gems.
Setting off from Sir Thomas Lipton's historic Dambatenne Tea Factory in the Hill Country, this fantastic walk takes you up through the tea plantations to the viewpoint said to be Thomas Lipton's favourite spot to come and quietly meditate and survey his estates. The view from here rivals that of Worlds End and on a clear day it is possible to see all the way to the coast.
While it is not overly strenuous, and older children should easily manage it, do bear in mind that climbing any distance in the heat can be tiring and taking up some water and provisions would be essential.
You can include this experience as part of an Experience Travel Group holiday designed exclusively with you.
