Sri Lanka is a wonderful choice for family holidays. Wonder Sri Lanka Team offers flexible tours especially designed for guest families with kids. Family-friendly adventure, elephants, hotels and villas with great pools. A thrilling holiday discovering the fascinating culture, varied landscapes & wildlife of this tropical paradise, elephant heaven Formerly known as Ceylon and as Serendib, the lovely island of Sri Lanka has known Portuguese, Dutch and English colonization and today still displays a fascinating blend of local and old colonial cultures in a landscape of upland tea plantations, jungles and a coastline of palm-fringed beaches. Dolphin Watching From November to April the sea is often like a sheet of glass. Dolphins glide in the azure depths and, if lucky, you may have them jumping out of the water giving you an official welcome to Sri Lanka! Habarana & Village Life Continuing your journey on this diverse tropical island, you head inland to climb Sigiriya Rock and explore unspoilt tropical woodland on elephant-back. You can also discover the lush countryside by bike (optional). You'll have the unique opportunity to watch (or help!) local villagers with their early morning fish catch and (season permitting) ride to islands in Parakrama Lake on a fisherman's catamaran. Here you may see ibis, cormorants and other birds. Temples & Jungle Kandy is famous for its Temple of the Tooth and botanical gardens. Following a drive through stunning mountains you'll embark on a jungle trek and canoe on the Kelani River. There's also the opportunity for white water rafting (optional). Elephants & Beaches You'll experience dramatic hill-country and colonial Bandarawela before descending to stay by Uda Walawe NP. After a jeep safari you'll visit the Elephant Transit Home, followed by three nights relaxing on the tropical, Indian Ocean beaches.
