Experience Travel Group

Get back to nature with adventure travel in Sri Lanka. We've selected our favourite outdoor activities in Sri Lanka, including the best tours and trips that you can experience on your holiday.

There are adventure sports in Sri Lanka such as white water rafting, surfing and kite-surfing, though in general the activities that we include in our holidays are relatively gentle and relaxed. We're not an activity holiday specialist; we're more about revealing the fabric of the destination.

That said, we're bursting with trip ideas for Sri Lanka, and we'd be delighted to share them with you. It's all about your holiday. Have a look at what's possible and get in touch today.
