Two unforgettable days through Sri Lanka's hill country and ancient heartland. Day one is pure highland magic: Ravana Falls, the world-famous scenic train ride through tea plantations, a hike up Little Adam's Peak, the iconic Nine Arch Bridge, colonial Nuwara Eliya with its British-era post office, and the cascading Ramboda Waterfall — plus Ceylon tea tasting and playful monkey feeding. Day one alone would make a wonderful tour — yet day two somehow tops it.

Day two turns to heritage: panoramic views from the Ambuluwawa 360° Tower, a fragrant Ayurvedic spice and herb garden, the climb up Sigiriya Lion Rock — the island's most iconic UNESCO site — and the magnificent Golden Buddha of Dambulla. One night's hotel accommodation with breakfast, all entrance fees, transport and your guide are included. You will return to the coast with a camera full of memories and a genuine feel for the island. From $170 — book this perfect two-day escape now.
