Put simply, Sri Lanka is an amazing destination for a luxury holiday. This tropical island in the Indian Ocean is blessed with dazzling beaches, national parks, ancient cities and extraordinary wildlife. We can help you discover all this and much more.
Our version of luxury goes beyond incredible hotels (though we do know where to find the best of those, too). Your touring holiday will have the perfect balance of discovery and downtime. Our holiday and travel services cover all the nitty-gritty details; we handle the logistics, leaving you free to dream about your remarkable experience. Plus, as we belong to the ABTA and ATOL scheme, you can rest assured that we offer total financial protection.
Whether you’re looking for beach holidays or active adventures; family holidays or encounters with wildlife; luxury getaways or an in-depth cultural tour - Sri Lanka has it all, and much more.
We believe Sri Lanka is one of the world’s best family holiday destinations. It makes an unforgettable introduction to Asia for a first trip outside Europe, as it contains all the magic of the tropics in a manageable size. Equally, there is plenty to entice intrepid families looking for more in-depth adventures.
Our holiday tours don’t rush you through the main sites. We believe that the magic of Sri Lanka lies in serendipity; chance meetings or happy accidents that reveal the fabric of the destination. A relaxed holiday takes in much of the wonderful diversity of Sri Lanka, but with minimal travelling and unpacking.
Sri Lanka is blessed with many national parks and a huge range of exotic animals, which makes it the perfect place to venture into the wild. You can either visit a national park like Yala, Wilpattu or Udawalawe for a safari, or adventurous travellers might opt to stay in the jungle overnight too.
Our Sri Lanka holidays are in fact designed for each individual traveller: your trip can be as intrepid as you like or as luxurious as you choose. To give you a little inspiration, here are three of our favourite suggested itineraries to get you started

When it comes to hotels in Sri Lanka, whether you like luxury, something quirky and characterful, an intimate family-run hotel or a mixture of all that and more, Sri Lanka has some of the most amazing hotels in Asia.
At ETG, we think the best holiday hotels in Sri Lanka are often the smaller, boutique style accommodation. The Sri Lankan hospitality and the personal touch mean you can get a true flavour of the destination. The very upper echelon of luxury is also available, especially in the form of hill country and beach hotels, as well as eco-friendly properties and heritage hotels such as those designed by renowned architect, Geoffrey Bawa.
There are plenty of family hotels in Sri Lanka too. Family holiday resorts in Sri Lanka tend to feature interconnecting rooms, brilliant pools and child-friendly activities available.

Sri Lanka offers an impressive variety of once-in-a-lifetime experiences. However, we like to show our fellow travellers something different and extra special. For example, while Yala National Park might be the most popular, why not try to spot leopards and elephants in lesser-visited Wilpattu National Park? Everyone climbs the famous Sigiriya Rock Fortress; why not opt to ascend nearby Pidurangala, for a sunrise picnic overlooking it instead?
From Buddhist temples to tea plantations, and from vibrant cities to dramatic mountains, beaches and jungle, Sri Lanka offers countless incredible experiences. Wildlife experiences are abundant, from Wilpattu National Park in the north to the famous Yala National Park in the south. Our experiences are always designed to show our fellow travellers a different perspective and reveal the fabric of the destination.
