Crafted, unhurried travel across the island the old maps called Serendib temple to tea estate, leopard country to the warm southern coast.
ScrollWe don't sell tickets to a country. We arrange the kind of days you describe years later the morning mist over the tea, the temple before the crowds, the road that only your driver knew.
Majesty Tours began with one driver, one van, and an unreasonable belief that Sri Lanka is best seen slowly. Founded in 2009 by Nadeera Sanjaya Kuruppu, we remain a small, owner-run operation which is precisely why no two of our journeys are alike.
Every itinerary is private and built around you: the pace you like, the food you're curious about, the places the guidebooks ran out of room for. Your driver-guide stays with you the whole way, island-wide.

Five ways to see the island
Sample routes below each fully customisable, and each one opens to a day-by-day plan. Pricing is per person, private, with your own vehicle and guide.
Colombo → Dambulla
Drive into the dry zone. Afternoon at the Dambulla cave temples five caves of painted Buddhas under a single rock overhang.
Sigiriya rock fortress
Climb the Lion Rock at first light, ahead of the heat and the crowds. Frescoes, water gardens, and the view from a 5th-century sky palace.
Polonnaruwa by bicycle
The medieval capital, ringed by ruins and reservoirs. Cycle between the stupas and the serene rock-cut Buddhas of Gal Vihara.
Kandy & the Tooth Temple
Into the hills to the last royal capital the Temple of the Tooth, the lake, and an evening of Kandyan drumming.
Kandy → Nuwara Eliya
Climb through tea estates to 'Little England'. A working factory tour, a cup at the source, and the cool colonial hill station.
The blue train to Ella
One of the world's great rail journeys open doors, tea-green valleys, and the slow blue carriages winding to Ella.
Nine Arches & Little Adam's Peak
A dawn walk to the colonial-era viaduct, then an easy summit for the valley laid out below.
Udawalawe elephants
An afternoon game drive among the herds Udawalawe has some of the most reliable wild elephant sightings on the island.
Yala at dawn
First light into Block 1 for the highest leopard density in the world, plus sloth bears, crocodiles and painted storks.
Galle Fort
Sunset on the Dutch ramparts, boutique lanes, and the old lighthouse. Dinner inside the 17th-century walls.
Mirissa whales
An early boat for blue whales and spinner dolphins, then the palm-fringed crescent of Mirissa beach.
Stilt fishers & Unawatuna
The famous stilt fishers at Koggala, a turtle hatchery, and a last warm swim at Unawatuna bay.
The Cultural Triangle
Dambulla, Sigiriya, Polonnaruwa and Kandy the dry-zone kingdoms and the last royal capital.
Into the tea
Nuwara Eliya, the blue train, and the green folds of Ella.
Leopard country
Udawalawe and a dawn safari in Yala on the way south.
The southern coast
Mirissa whales, Galle Fort, stilt fishers and slow days by the warm sea before Colombo.
"The most natural good things fruit, sun, a warm sea, the kindness of strangers arranged within a single afternoon's drive."
One island, endless lines
Tap a journey to follow its path across Sri Lanka or tap any city to see what waits there. From the cultural triangle in the dry-zone north to the surf of the deep south.
When to go
Sri Lanka has two monsoons running opposite each other so somewhere on the island is always in season. Pick a month to see where.
There is no bad time to come only a best place to be.
