On route visit to the Pinnawela Elephant Orphanage. (AUS $ 28 per person)

Pinnawela-Begun in 1972, the Elephant Orphanage at Pinnawela is a remarkable project created to protect abandoned or orphaned wild elephants who would not otherwise have survived in the wild. Relocated to the present size in 1975, today it has grown to become one of Sri Lanka’s key attractions. The elephants roam free within the sanctuary – and the highlight of their (and the visitors’) day is the feeding sessions and when they are led down to the river for a bath. From the banks of the river you can watch these gleeful herds of elephants splashing around freely on the river.

Sigriya- The ultimate icon of Sri Lanka’s historic past, the giant rock fortress of Sigiriya arises high above the flat landscape, surrounded by jungle on all sides. Sigiriya is also considered to be the 8th wonder of the world today. The feats of artistry, architecture and engineering at Sigiriya continue to impress visitors with their utter magnificence, even thousands of years on. Intricately landscaped pleasure gardens sprawl out below the rock, giant lion paws hewn in stone mark the entrance to the fortress at its foot, a highly polished mirror wall still carries the scrawled writings of ancient poets.

Overnight stay at Habarana.

After breakfast head towards Kandy. On the way, you can visit the Dambulla Cave Temple (AUS $ 14 per person) and a spice Garden in Matale

Evening Visit the scared Temple of the toot (AUS $ 14 per person), which houses the Scared Relic of Lord Buddha, following a visit to the Silk Factory and the Ceylon Tea Museum in Kandy.

The cultural epicenter and the hill capital of the island, Kandy is Sri Lanka’s second city and home to the Temple of the Tooth - the country’s most important religious shrine, and the traditional pageant the Esala Perahera. The kingdom of Kandy was the last stronghold of the Sinhalese, clinging to its sovereignty long after the island had fallen to the Portuguese and Dutch and the English, preserving its own unique customs and culture until the very last.

 Overnight stay in Kandy

After breakfast enjoy a cool walk in the Royal Botanical Gardens, Peradeniya. (AUS $ 14 per person)
Thereafter leave for Nuwara Eliya. On the way, visit the Tea Factory Planation to witness the manufacturing process of world famous Ceylon Tea.

Hidden away high in the central mountains at an altitude of over 6000 feet, Nuwara Eliya is the resort capital of the hills. The British planters who flocked to the region to grow tea in the mid-19th century developed Nuwara Eliya as their summer retreat. Created as an exact replica of an English town it is often called ‘Little England’; and with its primarily colonial architecture, the stately Victoria Park, golf course, racing track, boating lake and grand period style hotels – and the cold, frequent showers of rain adding to the illusion, you could well be in an old English country town.
